I wish that we had a wiser and more decent government in Israel
AS A Jew I sometimes think my co-religionists can be hasty in calling out anti-Semitism. However, I do wonder at their motivation when obviously articulate and well-informed people criticise the rights and opportunities afforded to non-Jews in Israel. Surely they know that Israel is a beacon of respect compared to the treatment Christians and Jews receive in just about every Middle Eastern and North African country? Israel is the one Jewish state in the world and makes great efforts to respect the rights of all its citizens. Perhaps your well-intentioned correspondents could self-reflect on how they can criticise Israel’s failings when staying so silent on the treatment of other faiths in nations where Islam is the state religion.
