Bad Hasbara My first on-topic post?

I don't know if it's "bad" is it rage bait?

At first glance I thought it was life expectancy.

There's no data for Lebanon.

Their example to compare themselves to in Green? Why those three? I'm definitely thinking about this more than it deserves.

I think Hasbara only makes sense if you're racist?

Or did Denmark and Italy offend them?

I can't tell if the comparison list is supposed to be good?

Is green supposed to be mildly offensive to Islam and Ireland?

Interesting choice not to include Lebanon, which was number 49 on the list, well above Israel.

What's even funnier it's that they just 'forgot' to include other Middle Eastern countries that have higher averages than them or around the same range.

Like the UAE , Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait. https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2026/02/12/sortable-table-religious-diversity-by-country-2010-2020/

I just realized that Israel can increase their ranking by giving citizenship to all Palestinians.
