Stay away from Israeli women, foreign workers told
FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM - An Israeli company has required thousands of Chinese workers to sign a contract promising not to have sex with Israelis or try to convert them, a police spokesperson said today.
According to the document, male workers cannot come into contact with Israeli women ? including prostitutes ? become their lovers or marry them, spokesperson Rafi Yaffe said. He said there was nothing illegal about the requirement and no investigation had been opened against the company.

The labourers are also forbidden in the contract from engaging in any religious or political activity. Those who violate the agreement will be sent back to China at their own expense.

Bizarre. Is Israel becoming a reflection of the surrounding region?

2. Foreign workers to Israel:
Shit! Send me home now! :-(

It's really foolish to believe propinquity can be stopped by a policy. In addition this stigmatizes exsisting families of this makeup. Pretty bad form all around.

9. Well
"WOW, Saudade...how do you feel about the USA's policies, presuming you not only visit but live here?"

I live in America, and I think the current policies -- especially the fraudulent "war on terrorism" -- are destroying my country.

12. Not an I/P issue
While it does cast Israel (or an Israeli company) in a bad light, it has no bearing on the I/P issues. Allowing foreign workers has become less of an option, because of all the social problems involved. such as health care, etc.

15. I've not defended it in anyway
If you think that was defense, then you'll need to revise the English language.

13. This is quite funny
How can you stop males and females getting together if that's what they want.
