I wonder if this lawyer is "irritated" by the fact that many European countries have crosses in the design of their flags or that muslim countries have muslim symbols?

Or is her "irritation" only because Israel is a Jewish State?

Don't you feel sorry for her? Her life must be sooooo full of "irritation".
