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,
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 human shields in
battle to minimize their casualties?

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?

If by accident we have missed facts that differentiate
Israel from other democracies, please do not hesitate
