Teacher resigns from Kiryat Ono school after students held protest against her, chanting 'Death to Arabs'

An Arab teacher at a high school in the central town of Kiryat Ono resigned from her position after students held a protest against her outside the teacher’s lounge and chanted “Death to Arabs.”

The ordeal began after students looked up the 22-year-old teacher on Instagram and discovered that she followed accounts that “publish news from the Palestinian perspective,” the Walla news site reports.

The students proceeded to open a WhatsApp group demanding the teacher’s dismissal in which various insults were hurled against her.

At the beginning of the month, a group of them gathered outside the teacher’s lounge and shouted “Death to Arabs” and other racist chants as she passed by.

I no longer expect anything but violence from them.

I see animosity in the faces of the Israeli security services, long before 7 Oct 2023.

No wonder the Likudniks want to de-fund Haaretz.



In 2016, the IDF beat up this barefooted and unarmed Palestinian in the West Bank. The IDF investigation into this turned up nothing. Look at the expressions on the faces of the IDF soldiers.

In 2017, this 16-year-old was held in detention for 20 days before his family was able to find 10,000 Shekels for his bail. He must have been absolutely terrified by these 20 IDF soldiers. Twitter/@marro_lb)
