That's as far as democracy is currently possible in the Middle East. In a similar situation in neighboring countries, a Jewish man would likely got killed.
Yes, I think it is one of the well know indications of democracy:
"If she hadn't thought the accused was a Jewish bachelor interested in a serious romantic relationship, she would not have co-operated,"
:-) make me smile wide. :-)
I think a woman in arabic country will be stoned, if some man just accuse her in having "romantic" relationship, no?
In so called democracy reverse is usually true, minus stones :-)
So, yes, Israel does look like democracy to me and it is probably the only one in Middle East :-)
So, let's agree that if woman have "rights" (may be even excessive when it is about sex and family belonging) it is probably democracy of CA :-)
