Diplomat: Yes.
-And?
-Totally different than I thought.
-How so?
-Vibrant democracy. Amazing diversity. Freedom of worship. Thirst for peace. Big threats around it.

In which head of one of largest US Jewish orgs ignores 1) Bibi govt is actively destroying Israeli democracy 2) Yes, it's democracy for citizens (≈6 mil Jewish ≈ 2 mil Arab) but not for ≈ 5 mil Palestinians under occupation 3) There's not even religious freedom for all Jews. https://t.co/8R6qVuszw0— Rabbi Jill Jacobs (@rabbijilljacobs) July 26, 2019
