JVL Introduction
B.Michael is renowned as Israel’s most sardonic commentator. Nothing is sacred as he exposes so many of Israel’s central myths and sacred beliefs as thinly-veiled tissues of misrepresentation.
In this Haaretz opinion piece he takes on “concerned israel” which he finds totally self-deceiving when it comes to recognising the undemocratic reality of the democracy it claims to be defending.

With or without the judicial overhaul, Israel lags far behind even the worst European states

Ouch! Well said but – ouch!
???????? B. Michel. Well said.
This is one of your ‘laugh to stop yourself crying’ posts. It would be very funny if it wasnt very true
For me, this is an eye-opener. Please keep supplying information on the life of progressives in Israel and for instance what are the voting / legal rights of non practising Jews and people of other persuasions living in the state
tom Goodall: I echo your comments. The kind of detailed analysis by B.Michael of the day-to-day workings of this apartheid State is a revelation, showing how far Israel has fallen to where no civilised State should engage with it in any way, unless it changes radically. Universal BDS for a start, to help the Israeli government understand how the civilised world sees them.
Amused to read about the Jewish caliphate. More articles like this please.
