Israel does not represent world Jewry as a whole. It is unacceptable that the indigenous Palestinian population, forced from their land and domiciles due to a process of systematic ethnic cleansing be refused their Right of Return (as guaranteed by UN resolutions and international law)while Jews anywhere in the world can become citizens of Israel once they set foot on the soil of Israel. This is profoundly unethical and does not reflect the values of Judaism
