"The British National Party has leapt on comments by Israel’s Interior Minister, Eli Yishai, to suggest that the extreme-right party shares a common immigration policy with Israel. Mr Yishai claimed that foreign workers brought diseases into Israel and that their presence threatened the Jewish and Zionist identity of the state. He also attacked cabinet colleagues who were in favour of allowing the children of illegal foreign workers to remain in
Israel." (thanks Anindya)
