"Israel appoints first Arab female professor in country`s history"

(1) the government does NOT decide who becomes a professor in a university.

(2) Israeli universities have many Arab professors who earned their status based on academic merrits and not due to political considerations.

I wish the author, Ofri Ilani, would provide more details before writing such a wild headline.
