...many Israelis, both Jews and non-Jews, and Kawar is correct in nothing that Israel has complications in defining its national identity. But to characterize Israel as a theocracy represents a simplification of the myriad elements of identity at play: Jewish religious identity, Jewish ethnic identity and Israeli Statist identity.
