Israeli Mayor Imposes Partial Ban on Arab Workers
 

https://s1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/I...f7fd8536d05226An Israeli mayor has imposed a partial ban on employing Arab workers in his city in a sign of mounting security concerns after a surge in deadly Palestinian attacks. Many Israeli building workers come from the country's Arab community, which makes up some 20 percent of the population, and Shimoni's edict drew criticism from senior government officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Justice Minister Tzipi Livni said she had asked the attorney-general to examine the mayor's move, which came two days after two Palestinians killed four rabbis and a policeman in an attack on a Jerusalem synagogue.
