Peter Beinart is wrong: Palestinian hostility to Israel is frequently anti-Semitic

81. I'm not sure what form this "discrimination" would take in Germany, Finland, Greece, Ireland,

& Italy.

Unlike Israel, these countries have political systems that don't differentiate between the different ethnicities in their countries. Being a Jewish Israeli awards you extended rights which non-Jewish Israelis are not allowed. Not so in the European countries you've mentioned.

When it comes to the use of exclusionary ethnic imagery by a state, like Israel does, it would contradict Article 11 which prohibits formal or de facto exclusion from participation in the political processes of the state. It would also contradict Article 14 which guarantees full access to the rights and freedoms in the Convention for everyone "without discrimination on any ground such as sex, race, color, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, association with a national minority, property, birth or other status."

From what I understand, every single law on the Adalah list would be struck down by the European Court of Human Rights for being in contravention with the European Court of Human Rights. Every single law on the list would probably be considered discriminatory in the US too.
