Harassment is bad...unless you are an Israeli.....

It would be big news if the Israelis had done this to a woman from Egypt...
An Egyptian harassment victim, who made history as being the first ever to bring the man who harassed her to court and to actually win a verdict, was abandoned by her own lawyer over "carrying an Israeli passport". Three days after the culprit was sentenced to 3 years in jail for groping the young woman in the street, defense attorney Naglaa al-Imam lashed out at her client after finding out that she carries an Israeli passport, Egyptian independent daily al-Masry al-Youm reported, as quoted by alrabiya.net. Explaining reasons for turning against her client and switching over to represent the harasser in the appeal, Imam said she "investigated about Roshdi and found out that she was born in Jafa, north of Tel Aviv, and that her father still lives there".Imam further told the paper that during a TV interview the woman said "Israel was a respectable country"
