Brig. Gen. (res.) Amal Asad bemoans the destruction of democracy and the principle of equality between Jews and non-Jews in Israel (Haaretz, December 1). But he ignores the separate-and-dispossess regime that exists in the West Bank, which plays a decisive role in inculcating the perception of Jewish superiority that manifests itself in the Basic Law on Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish People. Druze military personnel play an important role in this regime of separation.
