Israeli Knesset Approves Biometric Database Law

Posted by timothy on from the and-who-will-you-be-visiting? dept.

Lord Duran writes "The Israeli Knesset approved a bill that will require every Israeli citizen to submit a visual scan of their face and a biometric scan of their fingerprints to a national database. I, for one, fail to see how this is anything but evil. TFA mentions the Israeli census was breached — I'd like to point out, for comparison, that it's still freely available on your peer-to-peer file sharing network of choice."

    So... offering the people a place to stay was heinous? You do know that those people left on their own free will, they were not forced out, and in fact they were invited back several times, don't you?

    I guess you consider it heinous to defend your sovereignty? You now there is no sovereign nation called Palestine? There is however a large group of nomads that chose to be led by a well known terrorist organization .

    I blame Hamas for persecuting the Jews.
