    • 2019 July 10, Meron Rapoport, “ההיסטוריון שמגלה: אבות הציונות רצו מדינה רב לאומית”, in Local Call[1]:
      כשמנסחי חוק הלאום כתבו כי "מדינת ישראל היא מדינת הלאום של העם היהודי", ו"מימוש הזכות להגדרה עצמית לאומית במדינת ישראל ייחודי לעם היהודי", אף אחד לא נפל מהכסא.
      When the drafters of the national law wrote that "The State of Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people" and "realization of the right to national self-determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish people," no one fell out of their chair [i.e. no one was surprised].
