But Judaism is a religion, no?
They’re formalizing the political ideology of the hard right: that Israel is purely a Jewish state, and they want to incorporate Jewish law into the bill(whether the Knesset can swallow that remains to be seen, of course). They’re simply formalizing what has been happening over the past 20 years.
I see no ethnic related issues in the bill. Unless they’re (re)defining Judaism. But that would be a bill that hasn’t be voted upon, I believe. They’re still acknowledging African and Slavic Jews, are they not?
