Israeli Singer Publishes a Song In Hebrew — and Perl 69
Noiser writes "The Israeli pop singer Aya Korem published her new song "Computer Engineer" as a website that shows translation to the Perl programming language along with the lyrics. Perl is quite a good match, given that the Perl community has a long tradition of publishing "Perl poetry", and this song proves that this tradition is very much alive. No Flash is required to view the website, so if you are an HTML5 geek, have no worries."

Do Palestinians in the West Bank under Israeli occupation get a vote in Israeli elections?
Seeing as there are 12 Arab members of the Knesset [wikipedia.org] it seems that Palestinians are represented. How many non Arabs are there in the Palestinian government? How may Jews are allowed to live anywhere in Palestinian territory? If you really want to see racist (maybe even "apartheid?") rule look no further than the PA.
Does that become less justifiable the longer they are occupied?
Will it be any different to apartheid when the occupation is centuries old instead of a few decades?
Invalid question. They are 'occupied' due to their own actions. If there is justification for an action initially, then the justification would remain the same as long as the initial conditions are unchanged. And whether or not what you say is accurate has nothing to do with an intellectually dishonest 'boycott' of Israel. Although it is better than the usual Palestinian method of protesting, which is murdering Israeli women and children- if these are the only two options you can comprehend, then keep it up.
