YES. One of the largest flare-ups recently has been over seating in buses. According to Ultra-Orthodox Jews, there is halakha or minhag that women need to sit in the back of the bus and separate from men. However, this causes direct conflict with gender equality in Israeli domestic law. Another issue is the gender segregation at the Western Wall, which has been brought up as a case of gender inequality.
Israel's law of return guarantees citizenship to all Jews. (There are issues and debates about the definition of who is a Jew, and how you prove you are Jewish.)
The primary issues involved terrorism, recognition of Israel, Jewish settlements in the West Bank, the status of Jerusalem, and access to water.
Gender relations can impact laws by influencing how they are written, interpreted, and enforced. Gender bias can lead to unequal treatment of individuals based on their gender, affecting issues such as rights, access to justice, and opportunities. It is important for legal systems to address and eliminate gender disparities to ensure equality and fairness for all individuals.
It usually depends on the country. Outside of Israel, there are usually three general political issues that Jews press for: permission to continue practicing their religion without interference or prohibition from the State, support for the State of Israel, and general welfare concerns (although this is dependent on the community and Orthodox Jews are typically right-wing while Liberal Jews are typically left-wing). In Israel there are a lot of unique political quarrels between Jews since Israel is a Jewish majority country. See the Related Question below which discusses the conflict between Secular and Religious Jews in Israel.
There is no such thing as "the Israel crisis". Israel has many issues which both domestic and foreign commentators have called crises such as: the assassination and death in office of some of Israel's Prime Ministers, immigration and naturalization issues for non-Jewish refugees (especially Sudanese and Nigerians), economic issues (especially housing prices in Tel Aviv), and the conflict with the Palestinians, among many others. If you want to know about any particular crisis, please re-ask the question, specifying the crisis you wish to learn about.
B'nai B'rith is a world wide organisation that works on issues such as anti-semitism, racism, and the human rights of all people. That being said, it is a Jewish organisation and Messianics are Christians, not Jews.
The gender debate encompasses discussions around the roles, identities, and rights associated with gender, focusing on the distinction between biological sex and gender as a social construct. It addresses issues such as gender identity, expression, and the impact of societal norms on individuals. Central to the debate are topics like gender equality, transgender rights, and the implications of gender in various aspects of life, including politics, education, and healthcare. This discourse often highlights the need for inclusivity and recognition of diverse gender experiences.
Gender issues refer to the social, cultural, and economic challenges and inequalities faced by individuals based on their gender. These issues often involve discrimination, stereotypes, and power dynamics that affect the rights and opportunities of different genders, particularly women and marginalized gender identities. Key topics include gender-based violence, pay gaps, reproductive rights, and representation in various fields. Addressing gender issues is essential for achieving social justice and equity.
Yes. It helps to assuage Israel's water issues.

Answer 1Hasidic Jews believe that the state of Israel exists; and most use its services in various ways; but do not believe in its non-religious actions or policies.Answer 2One of the major difficulties non-Jews have when they hear that Israel is a Jewish State is that they understand this term in the way that one would say that the Vatican is a Catholic State. This is incorrect. Israel is a Jewish State in the way that Germany is a German State or Turkey is a Turkish State, where Jewish refers to a Ethnic Group, not a religious one. As with these other states, Israel is a Nationalist State as opposed to a Theocracy (like the Vatican).Hasidic Jews see the underlying nationalist current that supports Israel as being entirely non-religious and therefore do not feel any obligation to support it. Israel happens to be a secular state with a majority Jewish population. They have no issues living there or voting, but they do not believe that the state has any viable Jewish religious character and therefore do not give any higher level of appreciation for its political decisions than a non-Jewish majority country.If the question is whether or not Hasidic Jews believe that the State of Israel currently exists, yes they believe that the government buildings are there and if pressed to draw a map of the Middle East, they would label the area "Israel". If the question asks whether or not they confer any legitimacy on that government, they confer no more or less legitimacy on that government than any other non-Halakhic (Jewish Law) government.
