It's a Israeli/Jewish site, so they can write about themselves  
whatever they want. The word Jewish appear only five times including  
the title, not in every paragraph, I must say.

What was surprising for me (it tells you how much I fell behind  
times) is that there is a divorce in Israel at all. It used to not be  
the case: http://www.nytimes.com/1993/06/06/world/israel-is-seeking-
