David, you do not the facts,

There are Israel citizens who are Muslim, Christian, Druze, Bahai and other, with full democratic rights and freedom to practice their religion. Israel's national culture is Jewish for the most part, just as Canadian, US and European countries are for the most part Christian.

May I remind you of the existence of Muslim countries where someone violating the rules of Islam may be persecuted?

Israel is the only Jewish country, and apparently you and many others do have a problem with that. There is a name for this phenomenon, but it is politically incorrect to mention it .... well, the term nowadays is "Anti-Zionism"!

You have no idea what yoyu are talking about, Gary. The facts do not support you.
Annie, you at least are showing some dignity.

Clearly, there is no lack of human rights issues hat need to be addressed in the Middle East and Africa: mass murder, persecution, abuse and discrimination of women, minorities and gays, poverty, education, health care etc. etc.

Meanwhile, NGOs focus an inordinate amount of attention and resources on every attempt Israel takes to protect itself from waves of terror, even though it is a democracy where minorities are entitled citizens, with much open debate and a very solid judiciary.

Does this reflect bias or not?

Ironically, the many Arabs living in Israel only shudder at the conditions in Arab countries, and fear losing their privileges enjoyed as Israeli citizens.

If I have to stand in line at airport controls I blame the terrorists, not the airline. Stop the incitement and the world will be a better place.
