Is Israel 1st world/Western country?

>unable to take control of their own sovereign territory

russia-tier, 2nd world but very relevant in terms of business and money

it used to be made of wealthy europeans

the longer time passes the more it becomes just another middle eastern country

this is true
you can't get married in Israel if you aren't Jewish

>>78157221
lol no it's an ugly bunch of concrete block buildings in a desert in a constant luke-warm-sometimes-hot war with all surrounding countries, led by a nationalist government that panders to religious fanatics who are too lazy to work, fight or do anything but try to look more jewish than their neighour.

living standards are quite high, you can get good education there and etc. they are definitely first world and considering how much they love american culture and the usa in general you can call them western i think

stop it. we will try to immigrate there anyway, no amount of self hating posts full lies will stop us.
thankfully i have relatives there, and i hope it would help me

stop inviting arabs and muslims and yes

No, we can fend off enemies well enough, that's not what's rotten about this country
It's the racist, religious jewish superiority cancer that creeps into the government, and the high birth rate of a useless hassidic non working class.
