The allegations against Azmi Bishara don’t surprise me all that much. The man has been an enemy in our government ever since he was elected. The lifting of the gag order revealed that he aided and abetted our enemies during war. Not so shocking. What’s shocking is that the bastard didn’t even do it for ideological reasons. He did it for money. Word is he received over five million dollars from Hezbollah. His selfishness and treachery has done irreputable damage to Arab citizens of Israel. All the bastard did was strengthen the right wing’s resolve that our Arab citizens are a fifth column. Question is, will any Arab Israelis come out and condemn him for his actions? Or will they remain silent and declare that this is all one big Israeli conspiracy to keep a good Arab down?
