Danke für den Hinweis, der das Problem deutlich macht. All dies sind Staaten, die wir kaum als Demokratie betrachten würden. Israel mit diesen Staaten zu vergleichen würden manche Eiferer heute vermutlich “antisemitisch” finden. Wir wollen aber das Israel eine Demokratie ist, die mit europäischen Standards vergleichbar ist. Unter den Staaten Nordafrikas bildet übrigens Marokko eine interessante Ausnahme, dort wird in der Verfassung Wert darauf gelegt, dass die arabische, die berberische und die hebräische Kultur die Grundlage des Staates darstellen.
