Not gonna shed too many tears over this.
So all three major religions want to make the lives of women more difficult.
Who’d have thought.
You’re not calling Judaism a major religion are you?
Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, have billions of followers each. Judaism has a few million.
It has influence disproportionate to the number of followers. (But Hinduism and Buddhism should be ahead of it anyway, this is a very Western perspective)
Most Jews in Israel are Atheists.
Most Jews in Israel are Atheists. That’s not even close to correct.
Most surveys suggest that roughly 15-25% of Jewish Israelis do not believe in God or describe themselves as atheists or convinced non‑believers, depending on wording and methodology.
Zionism is the abandonment of the Torah by saying the Messiah will lead the Jews to the promises land and instead doing it themselves.
“God” for Israelis means “Jewish people”. They are their own God.
The three Abrahamic religions? …weird they all worship the same god by different names.
I don’t know that I’d include judaism on a list of “three major religions.” Hinduism and buddhism have much better claims on being in the top three.
isn’t judaism just a variation on christianity anyway?
Other way around but yea
In terms of numbers then yes.
But in terms of disproportionate influence then no.
Yet the majority of the world are bootlicking israel
Leadershit maybe, but the general public seems to have had enough.
Leadershit are the ones making the difference right now. People’s sentiment mean nothing unless they hold their leaders responsible. People are dying right now and still no action is being taken.
But the leaders are elected by the people and foreign conflict with always comes after domestic affairs like the economy
Large parts of the world don’t have fair elections, or elections at all.
Also, yes people vote on domestic affairs first. Doesn’t mean they support the foreign policy, just that it is a lower priority. We typically don’t have “if all else was equal” in voting decisions.
Or we have situations like in the U.S. where both sides are in on the bootlicking. One side may go further than the other, but both choices are bad in this regard.
If the population keep voting for those type of leaders there is zero reasons for them to care about Palestine and listen to people. The only way is voting them out of the system and we sre in a very critical time where Gaza may cease to exists in few years. Time is running out
Hacker ticked off a list of historical accomplishments for women’s equality in Israel: the 1951 Equal Rights for Women Law, considered revolutionary at the time; Golda Meir serving as one of the first female leaders in the world in 1969; the military’s mandatory conscription of women.
Yeah, cause socialist zionists dominated political power during that period. As racist as they were towards Palestinians, equality was increasing. That’s not the ideological reality today.
I literally could not care less. Get fucked, Isreal. You voted for this.
I don’t doubt that Israel is backsliding on women’s rights, but this “Women, Peace and Security Index” has got to be bullshit.
They have a bunch of parameters that try to capture the situation of women, and I’m sure that can be useful to gauge which way the wind is blowing for a single country, but it gets kinda ridiculous when Saudi Arabia gets a much better score than Turkey, China, India, Brazil, Iran, and Mexico.
Just a reminder that women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia until 2018.
63-million women genocided ( when newborn, all the way to husbands burning-to-death their wives, from what I’d read in other stuff, through past years ) proves that India isn’t protecting women’s lives…

There’s another article here on lemmy.world/c/world that was posted recently, about how now women are allowed to drive, in Saudi Arabia, but the regime is exterminating criticism, through executions.
The truth is hidden-in-the-murk, unfortunately…

Hey everybody, this guy thinks he knows better than The Experts!
If the experts claimed an helicopter crash is perfectly normal and a better outcome than a normal landing, I don’t need to know to pilot to be able to tell they’re full of bullshit.
First of all they use the same model for all countries, so it’s not unexpected that it’s not perfect. I’m sure they would be happy to explain this to you themselves if you asked them.
But just to be clear, if an expert explicitly claimed that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is safer for women than Turkey, then they’re drunk and need to go home.
Make a fascist society, get fascist society problems.
But I thought that we (U.S. people) were supposed to support them because they are a champion of democracy and human rights.
I’m calling bullshit.
What have either the US or Israel got to do with democracy or human rights nowadays, anyway?
Depends on who’s trying to say they’re good ones
Most moral society now!

You mean fascists don’t respect human lives? But muh LGBT equals! Muh only democracy in the region!
Well, the exact same happens in murica. If you partner with ultra religious people, this is the bullshit that’ll happen.
Wow, I didn’t expect bad people to be bad people 😮
they are baddies??
Only if you consider genocide and misogyny a bad thing I guess?
💯
Then they’re so bad!
Women’s rights are on a sharp decline in Israel.
Yeah, that’ll happen in a patriarchal theocracy.
Right wing government dislikes womens rights, more at 11.
John Kerry warned that Israel can be Jewish, large, democratic, pick two. They picked Jewish and large. Now leopards are coming for faces.
