Certainly takes this notion, digs a deep grave, and buries it. Israel is the Nazi equivalent of the 1930s/40s and they’re not even hiding it anymore.
Lebanon is a secular country home to 18 different religious sects. The people/society aren’t secular of course, but the government is made up of people from various religions.
Egypt is a secular military dictatorship where 10% of the people (about 10 million) are Christians.
I swear the only 3 countries I’ve heard scream about being secular are France, Israel, and India, all of which are exactly the opposite because the government is exclusively following a religious doctrine and cracking down on minorities as well as anyone not a part of that national religion.
Unfortunately no longer true since the 2018 basic law where Israel defined themselves as for the Jewish people only, revoking a core part of the 1992 Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty. Which led to large public protests within Israel at the time. The current admin are off the rails atm.
