> Israel itself demonstrates this since nearly 30% of the population isn’t Jewish

Israel also has a law that says that the right of self-determination only belongs to its Jewish citizens- it calls itself the Jewish state. I would be entirely for a one-state solution with equal rights for everyone, but that thing cannot be Israel.

Just like every other state in the middle east.

Not sure which states you refer to (and obviously you don't know either, you just mean it as a lazy retort) but it's not the point. The point is that Israel is programmatically a state for the Jews, and therefore Israel cannot be a state for everyone. There is btw nothing wrong with it- western nations can afford the luxury of being open to everyone because they are massive and ethnically homogeneous enough to be able to afford it. There's some hypocrisy or wishful thinking at the bottom of this, but doesn't matter. The fault of Israel is not that of wanting a state for the Jews, is thinking of colonising another people's land do obtain it, and then not stopping but keeping taking more and crushing all resistance with violence.

The only reason Arab states are ethnically homogeneous is that they ethnically clean minorities. Ask any Christian Lebanese. Or any Jew that you might happen to find in Lebanon, or Syria, or Iraq, or Yemen, or Tunis. Or the Kurds, or the Yazidi, or the Druze, or even the Alawites.

Not sure why you want so much to talk about Arab states, but anyway, just in the spirit of conversation- personally I've observed that ME countries, with all their troubles, seem to be much more religiously (and probably ethnically) diverse than European countries. I come from an extremely homogeneous country from both aspects, it's funny when a country made exclusively by white Catholics talks about the intolerance of places where three or four different religions and minorities have coexisted for hundreds of years.

I'm not familiar with the European countries, but I'm rather interested in how you perceive it. Care to elaborate? Thank you!

Seems you should ask any native American or Australian why there are white people in the USA and Australia

Instead I'll ask where are the worldwide protests to abolish the USA and Australia?
