Mar 28, 2019 at 16:49 vote accept Obie 2.0
Aug 6, 2018 at 17:49 comment added Gramatik @Obie2.0 for this particular bill it looks like the vote was along party lines save for arab members of both sides (unsurprisingly) opposing it. You'd probably get a better idea of which individuals from either party would break from their party and oppose/support something similar with a bill that isn't so controversial
Aug 5, 2018 at 6:14 comment added Obie 2.0 The people making this argument, essentially, are suggesting that "non-white" Knesset members, even if Jewish, are less likely to support this bill. Whether they include Sephardic Jews, Mizrahi Jews, Ethiopian Jews, etc. in this category varies, but that's the basic point. Is this idea correct? Well, that's part of what I'm trying to find out.
Aug 5, 2018 at 6:11 comment added Obie 2.0 "White/non-white doesn't really apply here...." While that's a useful thing to know, the point is that it's relevant to the way some people are approaching the issue. To be frank, the Jewish vs. Arab voting on the bill is essentially a forgone conclusion, and so it's not really what I'm asking about.
