Labor MK Raleb Majadele to be appointed first Arab minister
<snip>

"Labor MK Raleb Majadele will be appointed science and technology minister, Defense Minister and Labor Party Chairman Amir Peretz announced Wednesday, making him the first Arab minister in Israeli history.

Labor MK Nadia Hilu welcomed the appointment, calling it a historical step. "This is another step on the way to a life of partnership and coexistence," she said.

Majadele will replace Labor MK Ophir Pines-Paz, who resigned roughly two months ago in the wake of the addition of right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu to the coalition."
