Jewish soldiers refused to share the same table with Arab Druze soldiers Media reports in Israel have disclosed that Jewish soldiers refused to share the same table with Arab Druze soldiers during a Passover Seder dinner in an Israeli military camp. The Israeli news website, Walla, revealed that Jewish soldiers said they did  want to share the same table with their fellow Arabs, after an officer told them to do so. In response,  other Jewish officers, despite witnessing the instruction, ordered the Arab soldiers to move to a dirty table and clean it while waiting for food. The Israeli Army\'s spokesperson said the case is subject to \"investigation and handling\".
In a relative context, the chairman of the Israeli Basketball Association, Avner Kopel, has said that the association will discuss the racial comments made by national team player, Ido Kozikaro, who posted a message on his Facebook page which read: \"Nothing better than celebrating the Passover by eating a \"matzah\" dipped in Christian and Muslim boys\' blood\".
\"I want to flag that our association contains a lot of clubs, some are Arab and others are Jewish,  even the Arab clubs are divided according to religion - Muslim, Christian, and Druze clubs. I have talked to Kozikaro and he is sorry for what he wrote. Now I\'m discussing with the association\'s legal advisor whether Kozikare will be investigated by the association due to these comments, which I stress are completely condemned, even if they are for fun\", said Kopel.
On the possibility of Kozikaro being suspended, Kopel said \"we have not decided yet, but yes it is possible\".
The Arab member in the Israeli Knesset, Mohammed Baraka, has called to make Kozikaro subject to a judicial judgment. Baraka said \"If this comments are true, this \"Nazi\" person must be sent to jail\", Baraka continued \"All anti-racism barriers have collapsed in Israel, as those who are sitting on top of authority are racists as well, and they are benefitting from the silence and complicity of the judiciary\".
Baraka expected that the racial comments could provoke actual violence  if the Israeli authorities continue turning a blind eye towards this trend.
