Compared to many of its neighbors where Jews are persecuted and expelled as a matter of official policy... yeah, it's a shining beacon of democracy.
I take it then you fail to grasp the difference between advocacy by private citizens and official government policy? It's not a particularly subtle distinction.
THIS is a "shining beacon of democracy in a disturbed area"?
The US boycotted South Africa during apartheid and we should be boycotting Israel too. NOT paying for its military budget.
Two things, based on all the Arabs behaving poorly in Israel, I wouldn't want them around my family either if I lived there.
Second, since Apartheid ended, all the blacks are killing all the whites, especially the property owners, then the tribes are killing each other. Not the example I would cite for us taking a boycott against anyone IMO unless you mean South Africa.

So you want the us taxpayer to foot the bill for the 4billion+ we send to Israel each year? I thought republicans were against 'big goberment' and taxation without representation (and I am certainly not represented in Israel)

Israel's Prime Minister as well Israel's President have rejected and condemned the rabbis call not to sell or rent homes to Arabs:

Baker, who called the edit "very scary" and "very dangerous", said "racism existed [before the decree]" and the proclamation is "an outcome of the general political climate of racism .... The struggle should be against the whole climate".
I take this as a hopeful sign that Jews will refrain being guilty of what they point at others as guilt. I'm very happy to see Jews policing themselves as a community. As it should be, not dragging the world into their grievance with one another. I hope they figure this out.

What meaning does that have in a nation designed as hybrid theocracy? Is this not the same paranoia and ugliness muslims perpetrated upon jews originally? If both would be out of the business trying to dominate one another there would be peace, but instead, disgrace their own faiths by using it as a rock. ALL sides, I'll add, not just one.
I figured it would only take 5 posts before the standard moral-equivalency response popped up. But 8 responses isn't that far off the mark.
