Exposing The Lie Of Israel Apartheid / Moscow's role

This was the fourth such course. In addition, at the end of May, for the first time, five service members from Arab society completed all the stages of permanent recruitment. The integration of Arab-Israelis into the permanent service was described as a breakthrough in the integration of Israel’s Arab communities into Israeli society as a whole.

In Israel, formal national service has been offered to citizens as an alternative to compulsory military service. This option was generally offered to religious women who cannot serve in the IDF for religious reasons. But in recent years the option has expanded to many other sectors of Israeli society, such as ultra-orthodox men who object to serving in the military for various reasons, those not wanted by the IDF for health reasons and so forth, and, of course, Israeli-Arabs.

Such service can be performed in any number of ways. In addition to emergency services like firefighters and medics, people also serve in education, assisting the elderly or infirmed and in many other areas of Israeli society in need of help.

Many who go through extensive training for their service, like firefighters, choose to make a career in that area. The more that Arab-Israelis perform such functions the more Arab society can be fully integrated into Israel’s society as a whole. This, in turn, can help bring about more peaceful co-existence among Israel’s many and diverse populations.

An Arab Israeli Christian has made it his mission to debunk myths about Israel’s Christian minority.


“We want to educate college students about Israel’s minorities and to counter anti-Israel activity on campuses that use Israel’s minorities to attack Israel and say we do not have full rights,” said Jonathan Elkhoury, an international speaker, columnist and project manager for the NGO Reservists on Duty.

Five years ago, Elkhoury formed a group of Israeli minorities – Muslims, Christians, Druze and Bedouin - who were interested in getting more involved in society, including serving in the Israel Defense Forces and other forms of national service. What he found was that while there were a number of Arab Israeli diplomats, there were few average Arab citizens speaking out about life in Israel. His efforts helped change that.


“Now we have so many that are just waiting to go and speak,” he told Walker.


When the group is on campuses they are often met with a combination or surprise and even animosity by anti-Israel activists, Elkhoury described. He said that many anti-Israel activists don’t recognize Israel’s basic right to exist and when minorities appear on their campuses defending the Jewish state, “it shakes their whole lives and beliefs… These people – we take the rug from under their feet.”

United Hatzalah of Israel held a mass casualty incident training exercise on Wednesday evening in Park Ofer in Ramla, with the participation of more than 100 emergency medical service personnel, including 17 ambulance teams and first responders on ambucycles.

The objective of the exercise was to train volunteers from the Coastal region and allow them to experience the chaos of such an incident while gaining first-hand experience in dealing with these types of scenarios. The drill was run in partnership between the organization and the IDF Homefront Command and the city council.

The drill simulated a bus crash that resulted from a bridge collapse. Search and Rescue units from the IDF’s Homefront Command took simulated casualties from the rubble of the collapsed bridge and brought them for “treatment” to the medical personnel of United Hatzalah.

On Tuesday, two Jewish Ukrainian refugees began the final leg of their journey to a new home in Israel. In a collaborative operation run by the JDC, The Jewish Agency, and United Hatzalah, the two refugees, each suffering from a severe medical condition, were brought to Israel to receive medical care.

The JDC brought the refugees out of Ukraine and the Jewish Agency arranged for housing for them in Warsaw, Poland while they waited for their flight. United Hatzalah volunteers Khaled Hardan, a Muslim paramedic from Wadi Ara in northern Israel, and Israeli Russian-speaking EMT Vicki Tiferet from Moshav Yuval, went to Warsaw to make sure that the patients were in stable enough condition to fly and then accompanied them on the trip while providing them with continuous medical care. The plane landed early in Israel on Wednesday.

When the refugees arrived in Israel, as part of a Jewish Agency flight that carried over a hundred other refugees with them, they were met by United Hatzalah ambulance teams who took them from the airport to medical facilities in Israel so that they could continue their treatments and receive proper care.
