A petition was issued earlier this week to the High Court of Justice by an Arab-Israeli couple seeking a temporary injunction which would allow them to live in the predominately Jewish town of Rakefet. The couple, residents of Sakhnin, have stated that local authorities in Rakefet and officials at the Israel Lands Authority kept them from moving into the town, by stating that according to a “suitability test,†they were “not fit to live in the town.â€
Definitely NOT apartheid!
