It has happened in India before

I cannot appraise the India situation, as there are issues which Israel does not face. However, i would not ask a Gentile to have to sing "for which a Jew yearns". I also would hope, that since Israel is the Jewish Homeland, we respect ourselves enough to keep our National Anthem, as it is why we are home.

For Gentiles who are Israeli citizens; I respect their feelings, but there is no excuse to not be a part of the Nation in every way that does not impinge on their culture or honor. What is sauce for the Goose...

Shalom;

Yechiel
