Freedom of Speech in Israel
Poster Home
Where in the Middle East is there freedom of speech? Israel. In a region where many nations suppress their citizens’ right to free speech, subordinate women and punish those who criticize the government, Israel, like the U.S., stands by its values of freedom and equality. All Israeli citizens – Christians, Muslims and Jews – have freedom of religion and the right to vote. Ten Arabs and 16 women serve in Israel’s parliament, and all Israelis have equal access to education, employment opportunities, and modern healthcare.
