This case was ruled on December 7, 2014, by the Honorable Judge from the Tel Aviv District Civil Court, Mr. Alkalay Azharia (Court Case No. 44557-06-13).
The matter before the court regards “civil rights” ― or, as some would say, “civil anarchy.” I prefer the term “civil fear” and “I’yefei nefesh” (“Self Righteous”, “Bleeding Hearts” ) rules.
Omri Kais, an Israeli Arab, is without a doubt a serial plaintiff; he has more than 20 lawsuits on his “record.”
The plaintiff is very smart, and his goals were clear from the very beginning of the trial. He had the entire episode ― details below ― on video from the very first moment to the very end, and he used it in court, of course.
The plaintiff asked for 50,000 shekels in compensation, but in the end “only” 35,000 shekels was granted ― because he is a “serial plaintiff”; and because it was more than clear the litigant made sure that everyone within earshot knew that he was an Arab (!).
Therefore, he could claim his entrance to an event had been barred not because it was a “closed event” ― as the defendant claimed ― but because he, the plaintiff, was Arab!
Discrimination
The real discrimination in this case, as in many others, is in the fact that the State of Israel, including the juridical system, sees the Arabs as “poor souls” ― discriminated against, and not as a citizen with equal rights.
From the evidence presented, there is no doubt that the plaintiff makes a living out of these claims. There was no doubt he received fair and decent treatment from the guards and selector at the entrance to the event, but again… he is a poor soul.
Conclusion
This is not a unique case ― it is part of an entirely new culture towards the Arabs all over the world: They are the victims, and we are the perpetrators. But the really sad part is that we are acting the same way the world is acting, in our own sovereign state.
