Instead of just criticizing Israel, why don't you criticize the Palestinian laws against homosexuals.

A recent article showed that Ethiopians are also about 4 times as likely to end up Israeli Military Prison. This is another population that gets the shaft under their white masters. The hierarchy of race in the Tzahal, let alone the Mishmar HaGvul, is amazing. I've seen a Druze soldier named Mohammed hold an m-16 to the head of a Palestinian, a "fellow Arab", with the Ashkenazim superiors safely hidden in the checkpoint. The role of women is also not to be unexamined. Sexual assault against women is rampant in IDF. At checkpoints some of the worst things I've witnessed have come from female soldiers who, when given the power and authority, recreated masculine type domination on unarmed Palestinians.
