Israeli High Court suit: Strip three Arab MKs of their citizenship

In a precedent-setting petition to the Supreme Court, the Israel Law Center maintains that three Arab MKs lost their Israeli citizenship - and thus their right to be Knesset Members - when they traveled to Syria, an enemy country, last September.

The three Arab MKs in question are Azmi Bishara, Wassel Taha and Jamal Zehalka, of the Balad Party. During their visit to Syria, they met with Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad and leading members of the ruling Baath Party.

Israel Law Center's suit, filed last week by its director, Attorney Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, quotes Clause 5 of Israel's Emergency Regulations regarding travel abroad (1948, 1954). The clause states, "An Israeli citizen or resident may not enter [Syria or other specified countries] without permission from the Interior Minister or the Prime Minister" - permission that was not received by the three MKs.
I wonder if Nancy Pelosi is reading this

#1 Finally! Someone in Israel has actually decided to act against their homegrown traitors. These jihadists should be stripped of their citizenship and deported, with all their immediate family and close relatives, to Gaza! Maybe if they're lucky they can get caught in the next "tsunami."

#3 I can think of several places in Israel, Brucie, where you could get your face and dental work rearranged very quickly for saying that. Why don't you go over there and suggest it to them? Try up north for starters. I'm sure you'd get a fast response there.
