Description

The Druze are a tiny minority in the Jewish state, and the only community to share a so-called “Blood Covenant” with Israel’s Jews. But in 2018, the Israeli government passed a controversial Basic Law, known as the Nation-State Law, that threatened to upend this status quo. 
So who are the Druze? What is the Nation State Law? And what responsibility does Israel owe to its minority populations?
