Hi Little Joe, good to see you still checking in. Of course you're right. You won't get any argument out of me there. However, if the newspapers, radio and television are controlled by those in power. And they routinely jail and arrest anyone who dares to criticise them. Do you really have a democracy simply because you have voting booths opened?

That's one of the criticism I would languish on Israel also. I don't believe the press is truly free there. But, it's a tough situation when you've basically been at war since the beginning.

"In order to be a democracy the government has to be elected by the people and not the Supreme Court."

There are a lot of folks on this line who are not interested in Democracy only propagating the known correct answer to all issues independent of the facts
