When it comes to Israel, the news media tends to oversimplify the realities on the ground. And that means for Canadians reading, watching or listening to the news, they aren’t getting a full picture about Israel, notably about the 25% of the population which is non-Jewish, and the full civil and democratic rights they enjoy as Israeli citizens.

In this week’s edition of The Honest Report, we sit down with Jonathan Elkhoury, an international speaker, columnist and diplomatic advisor, who is also a Christian-Arab in Israel, for his thoughts on how his life is as an Arab in Israel, and what the world needs to understand about freedoms in the Jewish State.
