True and that is not what I asked, is it. Please answer the question.
Israel was never set to be a theocracy. Always a Secular country with a Secular society. And that is exactly what it is.
What is your problem with that?
Right. Thank you. Now tell me why they insist that Palestinians, in Gaza and the West Bank (what is left of them) are told they need to recognize Israel as a jewish state?
Because the Arabs explicitly state that they will drive the Jews into the Mediterranean.
And because the US is a Christian nation even though there is freedom of religion.
No the US is not a Christian nation. You have that wrong, although its the largest religion in the US, but its not based on Christianity, some get that wrong. We sure as hell are not a Judeo-Christian nation either, all of a sudden in 1950 we got judeo in front of Christianity. No way.
Hey the way the jews encroached upon Palestine, and the way they are stealing land and fencing people in , I'd want the Jews in the Mediterranean Sea as well. What do you think , you kick people off their land and cage them in and they are going to love it.
More delusional bulshirology from one who wants to continue to be misinformed.
The USA is not "officially" a Christian Nation, but indeed most residents are Christians, and that is why mostly Christian Holidays, etc are observed. It does not need to call itself a Christian nation.
There is freedom of religion, and that is what the founders wanted.
You are right about it not being a Judeo- Christian country. Christianity does NOT follow Judaism. It simply uses it for its own interests.
Christianity's intention was always to replace Judaism.
How can Jews "encroach" on their own ancient homeland?
There is such a thing as the Oslo Accord of 1993.
( I know that you do not care that the Hashemite Arabs took the Jewish homeland known as TranJordan and turned it into Jordan, and then invaded the new country of Israel in 1948 with the other Arab countries and TOOK away what is known to be the easence of Jewish History, Judea, Samaria and the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem.
I know you will never find those actions against the Jews unfair and
the the total expulsion of Jews from their lands in TranJordan, Gaza, Judea, Samaria, and part of Jerusalem as a crime.)
The people of Gaza are not "caged" in. Stop with the total ignorance you keep providing us.
Israel totally left Gaza in 2005. How is that caging people?
They had a civil war and Hamas won. Rockets were shot at Israel since then. There is a legal embargo, recognized by International Law (you understand how it works, or not) exactly because of the rockets Hamas keeps firing at Israel with the intention of killing anyone they hit and eventually destroying Israel.
You are absolutely correct.
The Jews were kicked out of Gaza in 1920 and they did not like it.
The Jews were kicked out of TransJordan and they did not like it.
The Jews were kicked out of Hebron in 1929 and they did not like it.
The Jews were kicked out Judea, Samaria and the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem and they did not like it.
What they did not do, but the Muslims (call them what you will) insist on doing, is invading and attacking again and again, murdering as many Arabs/Muslims as they find in their way, and call someone else's ancient homeland as their own.
And you will find that about 20% of the population in Israel is non Jewish. What is the Jewish population in the Arab countries now?
Jews never did it for the 3800 years of their history, and they are more than surely not doing it now.
From an anti Israel Jewish newspaper ( and you will find this in many other sources)
Gaza is an "open space prison" created by Hamas. Here are some witnesses
Fleeing Hamas' harsh rule in Gaza, thousands of Palestinians seek refuge in Athens
Osama fled Gaza via the tunnels that connect Gaza and Egypt. “Yes, there are tunnels that haven’t been destroyed and they’re used by civilians who want to leave. Some people go through the Rafah crossing, but that’s a very expensive story. I have friends who had to pay $2,500 or $3,000 to the Egyptian commanders at the Rafah crossing to let them out,” he says.
“This is a very lucrative industry both for the Egyptians and Hamas. To leave via Rafah you have to register with Hamas and pay to move up on the waiting list. Before I left more than 25,000 Gaza residents were signed up to leave. This is because there aren’t any regular days and hours for opening the crossing, and each time it does open, only a few hundred people can go through.”

While Ayman is speaking, Naji, the third of the three Gazans, rolls up a pant leg and points to a deep scar he says came from torture by Hamas in a Gaza prison.
“One day I even tried to commit suicide. I slammed my head hard against a windowpane and put my neck up against the broken glass. But they pulled me back and I wasn’t successful,” he says, pointing to an ugly scar on his neck. “I’m telling you, Gaza is on the brink of civil war and no one knows what’s happening there. No one is interested.”

The above is a "prison" caused by Israel?
Or is it the ten years of Hamas takeover where they have done nothing but steal money from the EU, the Arab countries, are aided by Iran and Qatar, and only a few are millionaires (if on the side of Hamas) while the rest of the population are kept in poverty to be used as a tool against Israel.
And let us not forget UNWRA which insists in existing rather then do the job any refugee organization has done up to now?
And let us not forget that UNWRA mostly employs Hamas members, and teaches an anti Israel curriculum, created by EU, UN, and other fool's money.
