""Iran has in its Constitution the theory, invented by Khomeiny, of the so called "Velayat-e faqih", and that makes Iran without any doubt a theocracy. If you think that Isarel and Iran are both theocracies,""

Roberto, given that all of the Israel supporters on this forum jumped all over me when I stated that "Israeli" and "Jew" are not synonymous, and given that they insisted that Israel IS a "Jewish State", it must therefore be a Theocracy.

You can't have it both ways. Judaism is a religion, not a nationality, so either Israel is a theocracy, or it is not a Jewish state.

You choose! .... Which is it?
