      Calling a state an Ethnostate doesn’t mean you’re saying the population is entirely of one ethnicity. It means one ethnicity is given a privileged status above all others.

      Israel was founded when Zionists purged Palestinians from their homes and forced them into Gaza and the West Bank in order to create a Jewish majority state. That makes Israel an ethnostate by definition.

      Israel has a law requiring Jewish people maintain demographic majority.

      It is the definition of an ethno state.

      Not only that, but it is a removed supremacist ethno state.

      Look up how they treat the Beta Israelis.
