      Which country (other than Israel) in the Middle East is not a Muslim Ethno-state?

      Do you resent the current small Jewish ethno-state amongst the many larger Muslim ethno-states in the Middle East?

        None of them.

        Every single Middle Eastern country grants the right to national self-determination to Muslim and non-Muslim citizens.

        Except Israel who grants it exclusively to Jews.

          They are majority Muslim countries which have Sharia law. That makes them an ethno-state.

          Seems you cited a criterion none of those countries have been called on to fulfill. Have they put it in writing even or did you invent it? Which of those countries actually granted it to a non-Muslim citizenry? In fact which country even allowed a Shia-Sunni split?

          There may have been a 2 state solution in Israel if Arabs were not obsessed with wiping out Jews. Now it won’t happen for generations because of Oct 7.
