If Israel were a religious state, like Iran, atheists, Hindus, gays, and sushi eaters would be in violation of the law.
Judaism is a religion of law .. actually 613 laws.
Amongst these there is also a set of laws for non Jews, the laws of Noah.
It is interesting, during Ramadan, to look at these laws and see how close they are to the laws Islam dictates for non Muslims.
Under Iranian law, under ISIS, and under Hamas laws like these regulate the lives of non Muslims. They call this tolerance.
I am glad Israel is a western state.
