“According to the present interpretation of the law, the adoption of another faith disqualifies a Jew from being eligible for citizenship.”
VERIFIED
The evidence from Artur Blaer indicates that an indication of a non-Jewish religion in the application leads to a denial of the right of immigration, even if Jewish identity is proven, supporting the claim that adoption of another faith disqualifies the applicant.

“Orthodox Judaism (the only official expression of Judaism in Israel)”
