      i'm shocked at such behavior from the only democracy in the middle east.

        Careful, the definition of antisemitism is: to say that a single israeli politician is corrupt is a racist attack against every member of the jewish community in every country.
        • za3faran2 hours ago
          It's way beyond a single politician, and it's way beyond corruption. Several of their politicians are on file calling for outright genocide and displacement. Let's not forget that Pew poll that showed that 34% of israelis say that the IDF "did not go far enough" in what they did in Gaza.

        A few more election cycles and they will be a 'democracy' like Lebanon or Egypt.

        It will be interesting to see if the upcoming elections actually happen.

        I watched a talk today where what we call democracy would not so by the Greek philosophers, who would call what we have Aristocracies, because they defined democracy in the direct sense rather than the celebration of annual voting for representatives.

        At the core is rule by the will of the people, which we seem to be rather far from at the moment

        Isn't Cyprus a democracy, or does it not count as the middle east?
        • apexalphaan hour ago
          How is Cyprus in the Middle East? It's either Greece, Turkish or both depending on who you ask.
        • mc323 hours ago
          Cyprus is conventionally Europe.

      Yes we hold Western democracies to a higher standard than random Islamic dictatorships.

      Islamic countries being dictatorships doesn't excuse you.
