She's disappointed that the other protesters don't identify with the Jewish state. But why should they? Israel would deny most of them citizenship simply because they aren't Jewish. Why should they celebrate Jewish separatism while condemning White separatism?

Since when is expecting people to act civil in public asking them to celebrate Jewish seperatism? I don't think she was necessarily asking people to celebrate her culture- rather she was asking them not to spit on and abuse her for it- which is exactly what they were supposed to be protesting against.

Being Jewish is not a requirement for being a citizen of Israel. It may be a requirement for immigration to Israel, on that I am not certain. But Palestinians and other Non-Jewish Semites, who are born in Israel of Israeli citizens, or were in Israel when Israel was formed, are indeed citizens of Israel and can vote in Israeli elections.

One reason we should support Israel is that it is a democracy that grants rights to it's citizens, not granted by the Arabic and Non Jewish semetic states which surround Israel.

On the other hand, why do the Nazis hate a nation state with a defined ethnic core?
Teh reason is that Nazis hate Jews above all else.
AS for your comment, the freest Arabs in the Middle East are the 1.1 million Arab-Israeli citizens of Israel.
Teh Nazis don't believe in rights for minorities.
See teh difference?

"Israel would deny most of them citizenship simply because they aren't Jewish."

Although Jews receive automatic rights to citizenship non-Jews 18 years of age or older may acquire Israeli nationality by naturalization subject to a number of requirements, such as:

they must have resided in Israel for three years out of the five years preceding the day of submission of the application.

they are entitled to reside in Israel permanently and have settled or intend to settle in Israel;

they have renounced their prior nationality, or have proved that they will cease to be foreign nationals upon becoming Israeli citizens. The Minister of the Interior may exempt an applicant from some of these requirements..

See here.

Seems no more stringent than most countries including the USA.
