This is what Zionist Democracy looks like! The Arab construction workers building the Israeli Knesset building must mark their hardhats with a red "X" so that the Israeli Army snippers can keep better aim on their heads! Read this report from Ynet-online, Israel's biggest paper.

Arab Construction Workers Must Wear Hardhats with "X" for Army Snipers to Focus


This is what Zionist Democracy looks like! The Arab construction workers building the Israeli Knesset building must mark their hardhats with a red "X" so that the Israeli Army snippers can keep better aim on their heads! Read this report from Ynet-online, Israel's biggest paper.




It was found this morning that Arab construction workers (with Israeli citizenship) who are working in a construction site inside the Knesset compound are marked with a red “X” that is drawn on their helmets, to enable an armed sniper who is deployed in the site to watch them all the time.

The Knesset spokesman to Yner: “This is a high security zone. We have a big dilemma as we wanted to employ the bigger number possible of workers with Israeli citizenship for the one hand, and our obligation to safety & security on the other hand. The construction workers are marked with a red “X” that is drawn on their helmets, to enable an armed sniper who is deployed in the site to watch them, for security reasons”
