I gotta admit, I stand in awe when observing Israel’s domestic policy and rhetoric with regard to immigration.

Let’s recap some of the measures they’ve taken in recent months:

1) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warns that Israel could be swamped by illegal migrants from Africa. Netanyahu says the influx is “threatening the fabric of Israeli society, its national security and its national identity.” 2) Likud MK Miri Regev participated in an anti-immigration protest and said that “the Sudanese were a cancer in our body.” 3) Israel starts rounding up illegal aliens wherever they find them and immediately deport them

And now? It looks as though Israel is forcibly sterilizing Africans within their borders!

On Sunday it was reported that Israel has finally admitted to systematically depressing the fertility of the Ethiopian immigrant community (information first reported five years ago) by injecting Ethiopian-Israeli women with the long-acting birth control drug Depo-Provera without informed consent. In some cases, women were first given the drug while still in transit camps; in other cases, it seems women were regularly injected after arriving in Israel. Some women apparently knew they were being given birth control but were told they wouldn’t be let into Israel if they didn’t agree; others report being told the shots were “inoculations.”

Well, now isn’t that interesting. Since the same folks who run Israel are in charge of our government, can we expect similar immigration measures coming soon to a city near you?

Don’t count on it.

In the meantime, why isn’t worldwide condemnation being heaped onto the feet of the Jewish state? Do you think we’d have heard about this if, say, Germany was implementing such a practice?
