As mentioned by Richard Silverstein on his blog, rabbis who are employed by towns in Israel have ruled Jews shouldn't sell homes or rent to Arabs. They have been denounced by peace activists, intellectuals, the Left in Israel and by PM Netanyahu. GangreenTV, an anarchist group, has issued a video posting the rabbis' faces & phone numbers.
