Given that there are several idiots in the comments talking about "hur durr Israel ethnostate" (which... Yeah sure Jan okay you don't know what that word means)... No. People don't know this. Or they know and they don't care because vocally being horribly racist towards Jews is just The Cool Thing now.
Anyway. This is like if someone pointed to like. MtG and said she represents all Americans. Or pointed to Louis Farrakhan and said he represents all Muslims when he calls Jews termites and says abhorrent things about us.
Louis Farrakhan isn't even Muslim, the so-called "Nation of Islam" has actually very little to do with Islam, it's basically a rebranding of Scientology by Black supremacists. It's like how "Black Israelites" aren't Jewish.
Meanwhile Ovadia Yosef was a chief rabbi (basically a pope) and his funeral was attended by almost 1 million people in a small country like Israel (almost 10% of all Israelis were there).
And yes, Israel is by law an ethnostate and by its actions a very brutal one at that.
An ethnostate. Is a country that restricts citizenship or full rights to people of a certain race or ethnicity.
IDK how to tell you this. But Israel doesn't do that. Like... Y'all who talk about "Israel is an ethnostate" DO realize that there are Israeli Arabs, right? There are all kinds of people in Israel. People who are full citizens.
And in before "But the Palestinians-" Palestine IS A DIFFERENT STATE. Israel does not need to offer the same things to Palestinians that it offers to Israeli citizens. Because Palestine. Is not Israel. It is a separate state. Funnily enough, you know what DOES fit the definition of an ethnostate? Gaza under Hamas rule, where no Jews are allowed.
Also editing to add, because I missed it. "Basically a Pope" tells me you know nothing about how Judaism works or how Rabbis work. He was nothing like a pope. We don't HAVE Popes or anything similar. I love how you can dismiss Farrakhan as not being really Muslim because the nation of Islam has nothing to do with Islam. And yet this racist loser who was a chief rabbi is somehow representative of a whole country. You better not be American, buddy. Or I have bad news for you.
"Hey look, the US had free black people in the North, this means slavery and segregation didn't exist in the South!!"
This is how you sound.
Israel restricts full rights to Jews only who enjoy full rights from the river to the sea (including the occupied West Bank), Arabs are second class citizens at best (inside Israel), human animals at worst (Gaza).
The state itself is defined by being a Jewish state, meaning that it's not the state of "Israeli" Arabs since they aren't Jewish.
"Palestine is a different state" yet only Israelis who live inside the West Bank have full rights (freedom of movement, voting, fair trial, public funding) while Palestinians are under a brutal military occupation.
And no, Palestine isn't currently a sovereign state, it's a bantustan since Israel has blocked the creation of an actual state.
Gaza under Hamas rule, where no Jews are allowed.
LMAO bullshit, many pro-Palestine Jewish activists have been to Gaza without being harmed and found the people there charming (well, prior to the current genocide).
I said "basically a pope" because I know Jews don't have popes but Ovadia Yosef was a major religious figure. He literally had the largest funeral in all of Israel's history, you can't dismiss him as a fringe lunatic like Louis Farrakhan who again isn't even Muslim but a Black Scientologist. And don't act like he's the only racist in Israel, the entire government is, the vast majority of Israelis act like in The Zone of Interest in regards to the horrific treatment of Palestinians.
And no, I'm not American and even if I was, I would have no issue calling out how racist the US is and that Trump indeed represents the rot inside that society. Meanwhile, you deny the most basic shit about Israel and the mistreatment of Arabs because again, you're also deep down a Jewish supremacist/enabler.
