Noch einmal, es gibt keine Propaganda, die rechter ist, als die zionistische Propaganda.
Wenn Zionisten etwas von "rechts" quasseln, dann machen sie sich nur lächerlich.
Es gab verschiedene Demokratien, eine Demokratie kann auch Sklavenwirtschaft und Genozid tolerieren, und kein Wahlrecht für Frauen oder Schwarze einräumen, separate Schulen für Schwarze und Weiße verordnen, et. etc., wie es in der amerikanischen Demokratie noch vor einigen Jahrzehnten üblich war.
Aber wir reden natürlich von modernen
liberalen Demokratien, in denen alle Bürger den gleichen Status haben.
Israel ist ein "jüdischer Staat", und die Nicht-Juden sind in diesem Staat Bürger zweiter Güte, und so was ist in einer liberalen Demokratie nicht vorstellbar.
Wenn man unter der "Demokratie" in Israel nur das Entscheidungsrecht der Juden versteht, demokratisch abstimmen zu dürfen, wie man den Palästinensern am besten das Land klaut und sie zu einer Minderheit reduziert, dann ist so was keine liberale Demokratie.
Warum? Weil die nicht-jüdischen Israelis auf der Strecke bleiben!
Hier ist die Meinung von Juden, die meiner Meinung sind:
Israel Turning Into Theocracy
By Eric Alterman
Israel is no democracy, and it never has been with regard to the 4 million Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza. It has always been a decidedly imperfect democracy concerning its own Arab citizens.
Lately, however, it has become less and less democratic with regard to the rights of its Jewish population. For reasons of demography, the Israeli body politic is increasingly dominated by Haredi Jews on the one hand, and secular nationalists, many of whose families emigrated from Russia, on the other.
Neither group demonstrates any intrinsic interest in liberal political niceties like free speech, minority political rights or civil liberties.
...
Netanyahu has recently announced that not only will Israel begin expanding Jewish settlements in Jerusalem, but it will also confiscate Palestinian land for the purpose of retroactively legalizing illegal settlements, in direct contravention of the promises of both of Netanyahu’s previous predecessors, Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert. The thrust of these actions is consistent with the political forces driving them — for instance, the dozens of municipal rabbis who not long ago issued an edict against renting or selling real estate to non-Jews (meaning Arabs), and the group of rabbis’ wives who wrote a collective letter suggesting that Jewish women avoid all contact with Arab men.
It’s true that Israel is home to many liberal Jews who would prefer to live in a secular democracy governed by the civil laws based on the precepts of the Enlightenment. But they are clearly a minority and getting smaller with the birth of every Haredi’s sixth or seventh child. What’s more, the American Jewish community does not intervene politically on behalf of, nor identify psychologically, culturally and religiously with, the Israeli minority.
So better to face the facts today, when the situation remains at least partially in flux. Kiddushin 39b in the Babylonian Talmud tells us, ”And wherever the potential for harm is ever present we do not rely on miracles.” Yet those who refuse to recognize the coming conflict between Israeli theocracy and Diaspora democracy are doing just that.

Theocratic Democracy:
The Social Construction of Religious and Secular Extremism
Nachman Ben-Yehuda
Abstract
One social arena where cultural conflicts are played out is the media. This book examines more than 50 years of media reported unconventional and deviant behavior by the fundamentalist ultra-orthodox–Haredi-counter-cultural community in Israel. Haredi culture practices a “right of the people not to know” policy and under-reports infractions thus comparisons between Haredi and secular media tend to rely more on secular media. Haredi infractions have increased over the years and their most salient feature is violence.
This violence is typically planned aiming to achieve political goals. Using such verbal and non-verbal violence as curses, intimidations, threats, setting fires, throwing stones, beatings, staging mass violations and more, Haredi (and other theocratic) activists try to make Israel more theocratic.
Most of the struggle focuses on state-religion status quo and the public arena. Driven by a theological notion stipulating that all Jews are mutually responsible and accountable to the Almighty, these activists believe that the sins of the few are paid by the many. Making Israel a theocracy will, they believe, reduce the risk of transcendental penalties. Like other democracies in the global village, Israel has had to face both theocratic and secular pressures on significant levels of intensity.
The political structure that accommodates these contradicting pressures is the theocratic democracy.
This structure is characterized by chronic tensions and depends on dexterity of politicians. Although unstable, it allows citizens with different worldviews to live under one umbrella of a nation state without tearing the social fabric apart.
