Quiz yourself on Israeli Democracy....
Is it Israeli Democracy or 'Jewish Democracy', you be the judge. Are you aware that:
Prior to the 1948 war, Palestinian Christians and Muslims were a two-third majority, who owned and operated 93% of Palestine's lands?
Prior to the 1948 war, most Israeli Jews were persecuted and dispossessed European Jews who made a one-third minority?
For Israel to become a 'Jewish majority' it opted to expel and dispossess the two-third Palestinian majority?
80% of the Palestinian people were dispossessed from their homes, farms, and businesses for the past 54 years?
95% of Israel's lands (which is mostly owned by Palestinian refugees) are open for development to Jews only?
Israeli-Palestinian citizens live almost in segregated communities (or ghettos) because development is strictly limited outside their villages? Ironically, the word 'ghetto' was invented to describe the living conditions of Eastern European Jews in Tsarist Russia!
For just being 'Jewish' you gain an automatic citizenship in Israel? Plus tens of thousands of dollars in subsidies too.
Palestinian Muslims or Christians refugees, who were born in the country and later expelled, cannot gain Israeli citizenship? Of course, unless they convert to Judaism first!
Pretending to be Jewish in Israel is punishable by law with up to one year imprisonment? On the other hand, if you pretend to be a Muslim or Christian the law does you no harm!
When the Palestine problem was created by Britain in 1917, more than 92% of the population of Palestine were Arabs and that there were at that time no more than 56,000 Jews in Palestine?
That Muslim, Christian, and Jewish Palestinians at that time lived in peace with each other?
Palestinians in the early 20th century owned 97.5% of the land, while Jews (native Palestinians and recent immigrants together) owned only 2.5% of the land?
Close to 4 million Palestinian Muslims and Christians are being subjected to Israeli laws that are different than the laws governing the 4.5 million Israeli Jews?
Is this a 'democratically' elected apartheid state, or not, that is the question?
In the occupied West Bank there are 'Jewish Roads' and 'Non-Jewish Roads'?
Israel issues national identify cards where the religion of the card holder is clearly bolded?
Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza drive vehicles with license plates that have different coloring than the cars driven by Israeli settlers?
Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza hold ID cards that are of different colors than the cards held by Israeli settlers?
The only form of Judaism recognized by the 'Jewish state' is Orthodox Judaism, so most US Jews could not get married in Israel. Furthermore, the only conversion to Judaism recognized is Orthodox, so most US converts aren't Jewish enough.
Just prior to the 1948 war, Jews owned under 7% of Palestine's land, and to increase their share after the war, they passed the 'Absentees' Law' which dispossessed the Palestinian majority land owners who later became 'absent'. What is even more tragic was the passage of an oxymoron law, called 'Present Absentees' Law,' which dispossessed the Palestinian-Israeli citizens who became internal refugees in Israel. It is worth noting that the internal Jewish refugees were not dispossessed as a result of this racist law.
The U.S. funneled into the Israeli economy over $130 billion dollars, which is almost twice the amount devoted to rebuilding Western Europe after WW II!
Israeli democracy is a facade to 'Jewish Democracy?'
Israel has nuclear weapons, and it was close to dropping one on Cairo in 1973?
Israeli soldiers use Arab civilian human shields in battle to minimize their casualties? ( Jenin )
Israel killed over 20,000 Lebanese and Muslims (90% of whom are civilians) with American made and paid for weapons?
Ariel Sharon is under indictment in Belgium for war crimes against Palestinian civilians?
