Who Needs A "National Language" ???

Apparently the Israelis do:

The Israeli cabinet has today approved the “national language” bill, which aims to formally define Hebrew as the lone “national language” of Israel, while downgrading Arabic to a lesser status, despite it being the language spoken by some 20% of Israel’s citizens.

If something like this were done in the US, there would be howls of "racism" and "hatred" from all corners. So how come no one complains when Israel does it?
