Moving away from RHEL based distros, whats good ?

Will start to test Debian stable.

This is a smart move.

Debians make for very good servers, I've been using Debian servers since moving my desktop from Fedora (when it was still called Fedora Core) to Ubuntu. I don't regret it one bit. The community is excellent, and there is ample information available online without having to ask a new question.

good ubuntu based distro?

The answer really depends on what do you not like about Ubuntu. I personally use Kubuntu, which after setting some settings is the ideal environment in my opinion. KDE on anything is great.

If you mention some of your peeves with Ubuntu, I might be able to make a better recommendation. Even Debian is a solid distro, it is what Ubuntu is based upon.

Israel is far less theocratic than the United Kingdom, where the head of State is also the head of Church. And she's actually a descendant of Muhammad too! I could mention quite a few other "esteemed" theocracies, from Iran to (arguably) the United States (Christmas is a government holiday). Any definition of "Theocracy" that includes Israel, will include the majority of the Western world.

As for being an ethnostate, Israel is far less of an ethnostate than any other middle eastern country with possibly the exception of Lebanon depending on how you'd like to frame Lebanese law requiring certain government positions to be held by people of certain ethnicities. And any definition of "ethnostate" that includes Israel will include Belgium, Latvia, Estonia, and Ireland as well, at a minimum.
