=== "Isra'El, a democracy? When did this happen?" === Do I really have to explain to you that, when Israeli Arabs and Jews vote to select their government, then that makes Israel a democracy? Why is the concept of people voting to select their government too confusing for you? === "How can a country call itself a (name a religious faith or ethnic group) state and be a democracy?" === My confused, unlearned friend, if you don't understand the concepts of democracy, (government by the people, for the people, and of the people); then how is anyone going to get you to understand the differences between cultures, religions and government structures? Look "democracy", or "religion" or "culture" up on the Internet, if you know how to do it.
