Balad (, an acronym for ''Brit Le'umit Demokratit'' (, lit. ''National Democratic Assembly''); (アラビア語:التجمع الوطني الديمقراطي), ''(unicode:at-Tajamuʿ al-Waṭanī ad-Dīmūqraṭī)'' or بلد, lit. ''Country'' or ''Nation'') is an Israeli Arab political party in Israel led by Jamal Zahalka.〔 It is sometimes called the "National Democratic Alliance". ==Ideology== Balad is a political party whose stated purpose is the "struggle to transform the state of Israel into a democracy for all its citizens, irrespective of national or ethnic identity".〔(National Democratic Assembly - NDA ) Party website〕 It opposes the idea of Israel as a solely Jewish state, and supports its recasting as a binational state. Balad also advocates that the state of Israel recognize Palestinian Arabs as a national minority, entitled to all rights that come with that status including autonomy in education, culture and media.〔 Since the party's formation, it has objected to every proposed state budget on the grounds that they have discriminated against the Arab population. The party supports creation of two states based on pre-1967 borders, with the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem to constitute a Palestinian state〔(Israel's 2003 Elections - Political Parties ) About.com〕 and the implementation of UN Resolution 194 regarding the right of return to Palestinian refugees. Balad describes itself as a "democratic progressive national party for the Palestinian citizens of Israel".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Balad (political party)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
