    Israel is a democracy ranked by the Economist to be more democratic than the US. All Israeli citizens have the same rights even the Israeli muslim citizens. In contrast every other country in the region discriminates against jews. Most do not let jews enter the country and have a history of previously expulsing jews. This is literally the definition of being a nazi state.

      Ranked higher than a country where many believe there to only be one valid party and that if the other party gains power that the entire democratic system will collapse and bring Armageddon?

      That’s who you’re comparing against?

        The Economist also ranks Israel higher than Italy, India, Belgium, Poland or Croatia. Israel is top 29 in the democracy index.

          India, the country best known for being notoriously corrupt to the point where it’s very noticeably hindering progress?

          So basically what you are saying is that the government represents the people and therefore most Israelis agree to commit genocide?

            no, maybe that The Economist is not reliable or does not shit about democracy.

            This is a theological regime first. Omitting this is hypocrisy

        No of your points can be proven, while it is easy to prove Israel is a democracy where all citizens have the same rights and all human rights inside her borders are granted.

        For example religious freedom (all religions can be practiced in Israel, in contrast to many neighboring states where Islam is the only religion) or the freedom of assembly such as the recent mass protest against the government in Israel

      I can understand why they are probably afraid of being colonized and taken over.
