Just to play devil's advocate, African Americans didn't have a history of terrorist acts.

To be fair, in this case, both sides do. It's two groups of equally horrible monsters taking turns proving which one is worse.

Well they were often accused of stealing, raping, and murdering whites.

Seriously??  So it's ok what Israel does?? You are aware that the stuff Israel does tend to breed terrorism. I think Yaezakura hit the nail right on the head, there are no "good guys" in this situation because both are monsters.

Actually they do.

Or more specifically slave up risings and then we had the black panthers.

No that's not the same as a suicide bomber.  But then this isn't about that. It's about pushing palestinians out of land the settlers want.  So just as racists here used slave revolts to justify oppressing black people, in israel any excuse will do as long as the ends are achieved.

Then again, wasn't terrorism one of the many rationalizations for which the former South African gov't instituted apartheid?

When an act of violence is carried out, perhaps one should ask "why" when figuring out "how" to stop it.

I know you were playing Devil's advocate, so don't take my dissection of the argument personally.

In response to the report, the Transportation Ministry said it "has not issued any instruction or prohibition that prevents Palestinian workers from riding the public bus lines in Israel or in Judea and Samaria. Furthermore, the Transportation Ministry is not authorized to prevent any passangers from riding those lines."

From the story it does not seem that it is the Israeli government but the independent bus line.

The government though you would think have the authority to tell the bus company cut that out

Playing Devil's Advocate or not, I don't find that a terribly convincing excuse for segregation.

It looks like the government is providing two new line of there buses to accommodate the Palestinians.  You are right it does seem that the government could do something.  It would depend on the laws regarding private transport lines and discrimination.

Not good. Not good.

Hopefully, this will lead to a backlash that causes Israel to take a hard look at how it treats both the Palestinians and its own Arab citizens.
