Because they’re building a Muslim prayer room in Ben Gurion Airport.
But—but—the Israelis are racists! They hate Arabs and Muslims! All they want to do is oppress them! Right? Right?
The Israel Airports Authority (IAA) Thursday ordered the establishment of a Muslim prayer room at Ben-Gurion International Airport to serve the port’s Muslim passengers.
The room, 20 square meters (215.28 square feet) in size, will be lined up in a southeasterly direction and will include an alcove facing Mecca. Rugs will cover its floor and a 35-centemeter (13.65-inch) high bench will be installed.
A small library of Quran books will also feature in the facility, which was conceived by officials at the Ministry of the Interior.
“The initiative to set up is another step in efforts undertaken by the IAA to improve relations with the Arab sector, and came about after requests to the IAA that a prayer room be established. The initiative is part of a number of projects initiated by the Israel Airport Authority to improve relations with the sector,” IAA CEO Gabi Ophir said.
Damn those wily Jews! They’re not following the script!
Hooray for th Jews! Shalom.
Obviously it’s to spy on them and tag them with nuclear weapons of mass destruction and poisons.
The AP will report it as the forced segregation of Israeli Muslims into prayer rooms separated from the arrogant racist Jews, as befits Israel’s aparteid policies. Just watch.
Trust me, it won’t be appreciated.
I just hope there’s a shul there also.
It’s only fair since the airports in Damascus, Cairo, Amman, and other Arab cities have chapels available for non-Moslem worship…oh, wait…
