Im not your friend guy, and nah the onus is on you to give me a source that says every state you listed is an ethnostate, not just say, ‘rEaD a hIsToRy bOoK’
Israel passed a controversial new “nation-state law” last week that’s sparking both celebration and fierce debate over the very nature of Israel itself.
The law does three big things:
It states that “the right to exercise national self-determination” in Israel is “unique to the Jewish people.”
It establishes Hebrew as Israel’s official language, and downgrades Arabic — a language widely spoken by Arab Israelis — to a “special status.”
It establishes “Jewish settlement as a national value” and mandates that the state “will labor to encourage and promote its establishment and development.”
This is exactly the reason why a majority of Israelis did not support the law, and it received significant criticism from broad Israeli groups on the right and left, Jewish, Druze, and Arab.
It’s also why it’s essentially never been enforced.
Yes, but not as much of one, which the law was clearly meant to solidify. Just how my homeland of America was alot less Christofascist before roe v wade was overturned. I’m not going to defend the sins of my nation, I’m going to do everything in my limited power to rectify them, not deny its existence in a comment thread.

lol what a shitty and thinly veiled religious law.
god gave us this land, nobody else got their land from god
our traditional language that our religious texts are written in is the most important and official language
we should spread and settle outside of internationally agreed boundaries because we are god’s chosen people
This is exactly the reason why a majority of Israelis did not support the law, and it received significant criticism from broad Israeli groups on the right and left, Jewish, Druze, and Arab.
It’s also why it’s essentially never been enforced.
So, before 2018 when the controversial law was passed (not sure what you mean happened last week) you believe that Israel was not an ethnostate?
Yes, but not as much of one, which the law was clearly meant to solidify. Just how my homeland of America was alot less Christofascist before roe v wade was overturned.
