You're absolutely right. This is why our movement needs money to fight shit like this in court. It's first and foremost a 1A violation, which SCOTUS has ruled covers freedom of association. Requiring me to associate, or not-disassociate, from a group or organization is a breach of the Constitution.

The Establishment Clause also prohibits the government from establishing a state religion or favoring one religion over others; the so-called "separation of church and state." Israhell is an ethno-state with an official religion, which was expressly founded to benefit members of a specific religion. Therefore, creating conditions that expressly favor a religious community is a clear breach of the Establishment Clause.

This really is something that should be addressed by SCOTUS.

Everyone probably lacks standing.

Not true. In Public Interest litigation, personal standing is NOT required when a law alleged to be unconstitutional creates conditions that affect all members of the public equally. Say I want to start a business, but don't want to subjected to pleading allegiance to foreign ethno-state like Israhell. Don't I have standing then? The State is imposing a condition on me that is unconstitutional. Of course we have standing.

This is why I love Public Interest law and organizations like Institute for Justice (IJ). Check out their YouTube page to hear about their cases. I donate to them regularly and they actually make me proud of it. They deserve all the help they can get.
