[Boycott - Other News]

Comment:

Another example of aparthied in Israel.

According to Israel's own figures at least 20% of the population of Israel is Arab, yet out of 800 employees only 1 is an Arab - and that after 18 months of threats by civil rights groups to sue the bank!

Bank of Israel has 1 Arab employee

Bank of Israel's 800-strong workforce has only one Arab


Despite promises by Governor Stanley Fischer 18 months ago to recruit Arab Israelis to the Bank of Israel, the bank's 800-strong workforce has only one Arab member, a Yedioth Ahronot investigation has shown.

One and a half years ago, following threats by civil rights groups to sue the bank over recruitment policies they deemed discriminatory, Fischer promised Arab Israeli MK Ahmad Tibi that he would open the bank's door to the Arab minority.

Fischer kept his promise and an Arab Israeli was employed in the research department, but the new recruit resigned soon after and left for the US to study.

The bank however recruited another Arab Israeli, this time in the accounting department.

"The bank has decided to recruit Arab employees and is doing every effort to recruit such employees," the bank said in response.

Bank officials also said that more minority staff members would be recruited, adding that the bank will implement its decision.

Officials added that the bank advertised vacancies in Arab and Jewish media outlets.

Academia is not innocent.. The Hebrew University has been slowly but consistently expropriating land and expelling Palestinian owners in occupied East Jerusalem. Tel Aviv University refuses to acknowledge the fact that it sits on top of an ethnically cleansed Palestinian village. Ben Gurion University has supported in various ways the slow ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian Bedouin's in the Negev, these finding were kept secret until recently and in accordance with the university’s agreement with the Ministry. Haifa University boasts one of the most racist academics in Israel who relentlessly and influentially provides academic justification for ethnic cleansing. Haifa University sponsored a wide campaign attempting to cover up a little known zionist massacre of Tantora near Haifa in 1948. Bar Ilan University not only operates a campus on the illegal colony of Ariel near Nabulas, it has also awarded Sharon an honorary doctorate!
