Can Israel’s critics name one other country where a minority population is better integrated (“Netanyahu’s party calls record Arab turnout the ‘Islamization of Israel,’ Web, Oct. 30)?

Israeli Arabs make up 21% of Israel’s population. They are 25% its students and 19% of its medical students. Some 20% of Israeli doctors, 70% of pharmacists and 25% of nurses are Arabs as well. They vote and have members in parliament.

Shall we discuss Christians and other infidels in the Islamic world? What about the treatment of Palestinians at the hands of their brothers in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority or in Lebanon, Syria orJordan?

The West has millions of residents who are non-citizens and do not vote. Who voted for King Charles III or the House of Lords? Canadians do not vote for their Senate. Every democracy has different rules.

The vast majority of Arabs who consider themselves to be Palestinians support the terrorists pledged to “drive the Jews into the sea.” Should Israel turn the country over to them and hope for the best? How is submission to radical Islam working out in Europe?

Double standards are thinly veiled racism.
