For some reason, the advent of the holiday season reminds me of the muezzin's call to prayer. It's a symbol of identity for Israel's Arabs – so it too needs to be stamped out.

As an Israeli Arab in the U.S., I have to choose between two countries that hate me

We left Israel because we wanted to raise our children in a liberal society that accepts them. How sad it is that our old fears are returning in the country of asylum, upon Trump's rise.

I don't need Jewish historians to tell me about the Nakba

I obsessively follow Israeli news in hopes of one day learning that peace has broken out in the Mideast. But all I see are Jews arguing about 1948 and the occupation.
