Israel Against Jews

Hatred and Discrimination Against the Non-Orthodox

  


In the United States only 10% of Jews consider themselves Orthodox.  In Israel the Orthodox are more numerous proportionally, but 35% of Israeli Jews consider themselves "totally secular".  Yet the Orthodox and Ultra-Orthodox Zionists in Israel rule the roost.  Since its beginnings Israel has discriminated against religious views of the majority of U.S. Jews.  If these things were done against Jews in Europe, it would be called "antisemitism".  This archive of links is about what the Israeli establishment think are the "wrong kind of Jews".
