The correct response is:

It reserves offices and seats in parliament for certain groups, while Israel does not.

Lebanon's political system is based on a confessionalist model, which allocates political power and seats in parliament among different religious groups. In contrast, Israel does not have a similar system that reserves seats based on religion or ethnicity; instead, its parliamentary system is based on a proportional representation model.
