Israelis mobilize for children of foreign workers

In Israel there are hundreds of children of foreign workers who are born here, learn in Hebrew language schools and who do not know another country. These children feel themselves to be one hundred percent part of us, they express themselves in perfect Hebrew and are a part of the social fabric.

Many Israelis, including well known public figures are mobilizing to fight for the right of these children to stay among us and be a part of our society. We publish here two video clips that were made as a part of this campaign for these children.
