The Global Gender Gap Report, introduced by the World
Economic Forum in 2006, provides a framework for capturing the magnitude
and scope of gender-based disparities around the world. The index
benchmarks national gender gaps on economic, political, education- and
health-based criteria and provides country rankings that allow for
effective comparison across regions and income groups and over time.
The
rankings are designed to create greater awareness among a global
audience of the challenges posed by gender gaps and the opportunities
created by reducing them. The methodology and quantitative analysis
behind the rankings are intended to serve as a basis for designing
effective measures for reducing gender gaps.
In 2013, Israel ranked #53 for women's rights worldwide - up two places since 2012 - but top for the Middle East overall.

Just a prediction: Want to bet the likes of Richard Silverstein will report this as "Israel scores a dismal 53 place in world gender equality"?
UPDATE: (Amazing how the anti-Israel cru is so predictable)
