Israel is the best country in the Middle East for women’s rights and freedoms, the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap survey concluded this week.

The survey, which has been conducted since 2006, ranks 110 countries in terms of gender equality and inequality, using a variety of factors including demographic data, socioeconomic figures, and a close look at women in the legal system. […]

Thomson-Reuters noted recently that several Middle Eastern countries—Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and others— have a poor track record for violence against women, reproductive rights, as well as the treatment and role of women. Egypt bottomed out the list. …

And yet it’s Israel that they want to label the “apartheid state”.

I hope this is not considered breaking news. We have Israel, which is full of beautiful, strong women, many with military experience, and it is surrounded by countries in which women have a significantly lower status than the men who own them.

A contributing factor is that many Israeli women have firearms slung over their shoulders.

I always enjoyed going to the beach outside of Haifa after Shabbat and watching the young people dance.
Looked just like a scene from Exodus.

Which is exactly why they are in such dire peril.

A list of societies that were "best for women" is the list, 50 years later, of societies conquered, with the men slaughtered, the women raped or willingly submitting, and the children enslaved.

A society filled with manly men skilled in the arts of war will never make the "best for women" list - although it should.

But, but, Islam is the religion of female pieces....

Islam, for when the past 1200 years or so of progress is just too much.

And you want to just let your hate flow out!

Israel is a very good country for women, yes, but saying its the best place in the middle east for females sure ain’t saying much (considering how women are treated in most of the Islamic nations!).
Isn’t it amazing how the American left is so in love with the IslamoNazi enemies of USA ... EVEN THOUGH the Muslims will subjugate and/or outright kill many of the American leftists the very moment they take full control of USA?

subjugating the women severely, killing the homosexuals and transsexuals and bisexuals and multi-sexuals and all the other 57 perverse variations of “sexuality” so popular within the American left

go figure!

Are you counting the women not even allowed to ride the same buses as some ultra-orthodox men?

Not to get negative but Israel has the largest population of prostitutes in the middle east as well.
