Israeli Arabs concerned that stabbing jihad will hit them in the pocketbook

Israel National News:
Police: Israeli Arabs stopped rioting, fearing Jewish boycott

Experts say Arabs fear financial losses due to Jewish boycott. Police: the past 10 days have been quiet.
The fact is that if they do not have Jewish customers their businesses will fail.  It is something the  genocidal wing of Palestinians tend to forget about.
...
"They are afraid of the response of the Israeli society, which knew how to boycott them on several levels. A social boycott by some Jews. An economic boycott that has two levels – a boycott of governmental suppliers like Bezeq (phone company), the IEC and Israel Postal Service, which have been refusing to enter Arab communities because their personal security will be at risk; and a boycott by suppliers of food and equipment like dairy giant Tnuva, Strauss and others. The Egged [bus company] has also canceled its lines to Arab communities, for a few days."

Individual Jews, too, stopped frequenting Arab communities for various services and commodities following the massive riots in 2000. The economic setback was felt for years.

Those fears were the driving force behind a recent live on-air confrontation between the Arab mayor of Nazareth and the leader of the Arab Joint List party.

Footage of the incident - in which Mayor Ali Salam interrupted a live interview with MK Ayman Odeh - quickly went viral.

"You have ruined this city, ruined everything! We did not have even one Jew here today, not one!" Salam shouted.

"What are giving interviews for? You have done nothing! You have destroyed the world! Get Out of here!"
The Palestinian merchant class understands the consequences of the stabbing jihad more than those who live off of the charity of others including the US.

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
