124. Gladly
the world does not need another autocratic, repressive military regime, where women have no civil rights, are stoned or beaten, where people of other religions (if they are even allowed to live there) are disciminated against, or worse.

Israel is a liberal democracy, and there are over a million Arabs living and working there.

Most would choose to stay in Israel, with its safety, democracy and better economy, than ANY Arab state, or any future Palestinian state.

The current Muslim theocracies treat their people like shit, killing those who do not follow their type of religious law.

They do not even allow Jews to visit, much less live there.

We need fewer such repressive regimes, not more.
