To say that Jews and Arabs in the Holy Land should enjoy equal rights or that the State of Israel is not impeccable and is, like all nations, capable of injustice is not to be anti-Semitic.

Why should Jews and Arabs have equal rights in what was intended to be an explicitly Jewish state? And why is there no tender solicitude for the Indians whose land we "stole" and who outside of Oklahoma and a few other areas are a miniscule minority? Perhaps you feel that American citizens and non-American citizens should have equal rights in the United States of America? And perhaps Protestants should have equal rights in historically Catholic nations? Or is that different?

I don't support Israel as a modern, secular, democratic state. I support the Theocracy that still exists (though hidden from most) in Orthodox Jewish communities, in their Halakhic courts. I support an Israel that is governed by a king and sanhedria and which is Theocratic, in which all questions are answered by an appeal to Halakhah and legitimate religious authority. And Halakhah very much regulates who may and may not live in Israel and under what circumstances.

The current State of Israel is most certainly not impeccable, one reason being that it allows non-Jews to live and practice idolatry there.

PS: Are you my old friend of the rocking horse icon?
