It's true that there's a lot of anti-Ethiopian sentiment in Israel, but this is not a major problem except in some extreme cases, like the recent case where 4 Ethiopian girls were put into a separate class and 'discouraged' from fitting in. In Israel, there's also anti-Russian, anti-Ashkenazi and anti-Mizrahi sentiment, which divides the Jewish population. I'm not even talking about anti-Arab or anti-Christian/Muslim sentiment.
I agree that the Jews should stay united and focus on real enemies. Sadly, this won't happen in the near future, because the government has abandoned the melting pot policies of the 50s and instead encourages each 'race' to preserve their culture, language, etc. This directly results in less patriotism, adaptation problems, the feeling of some that they don't belong in the country in general, and shouldn't serve in the army, etc.
Ironically, many don't see this and brand the melting pot policies as Israel's greatest failure. Wake up! Ben Gurion was right! |
