I think perhaps the relevant issue is that the U.S. provides significant financial support to Israel, which is in many ways run as a racist theocracy -- in other words, repugnant to the ideals of the U.S. Constitution. This news notes a move away from the entrenchment of said racist theocracy, and thus is relevant to U.S. citizens' decisions on whether to support or oppose continued financial support to Israel.

Israel is also a Parliamentary country without a constiuttion, ideas repugnant to our consitution. This has nothing to do with giving them money.
Israel is not a theocratic anything. Its institutions were set up by Socialists. There are state funded Christian and Islamic schools in Israel.
Non Jews have full rights, although only Jews can emmigrate.

Well, now it looks as though non-Jews can immigrate there too.

If non-Jews have full rights, then why does everybody have to carry an identity card which lists their nationality as "Jew" or something else (and if one of these nutcases has his way, it will list "Jew, Reform" or "Jew, Conservative" for those Jews who don't meet the theocrats' standards of orthodoxy)?
