Hmm, I thought Israel was de jure, a Jewish state. They have laws that favor Jewish immigration and discourage immigration by non-Jews, for example. That Jewish state business is the one attribute of Israel that most disturbs me -- a theocratic democracy. With the increasing power of the Sephardic and Orthodox parties, secularism is under a lot of pressure.

Unless Israel can figure-out a way to become more secular and learn how to absorb non-Jews, they are destined to live in perpetual war.
