The problem I have is with part 1C
> The right to exercise national self-determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish people.

What would happen if that part was removed and 100 years from now, another group tried to claim Israel as their self-determined government?
Every time Jewish people try to be a peaceful minority inside someone else's society, they face discrimination, exile, or pogroms. And it just happens that many government leaders of neighboring countries have repeatedly declared their intention (or heck, literally tried) to mass murder them.
Is every country now required to sing Kumbaya and officially honor every major culture within a 1000km radius? Can they not officially declare that certain cultural things are more important to them than others?
