POLITICALLY INCORRECT

Israel claims to be a modern democratic state but Israeli writer Ofra Yeshua-Lyth reveals some startling truths about modern day Israel: how although over 50% of Israelis do not follow the Jewish religion all citizens are all subject to laws designed to favour religious Israelis over all others. In matters of birth and death; marriage and divorce; finance and the military Israel's rabbis exercise iron control over governments however secular they claim to be. Yeshua-Lyth sees the seeds of Israel's demise in the growing tension between Israelis who want to lead modern secular lives and those who wish Israel to continue in the iron grip of the rabbis.
