    I don’t know anything about the structure of the government of Denmark or Poland but I will say that I don’t have a particularly positive view of their societies or peoples from what little I have seen to judge them by. What is the point of this latest non-sequitur? Are you capable of speaking on the topic at hand or do you only ever reply with left field references to other existing things or hypothetical things that do not exist?

      I’m trying to make clear to you, that Israel is judged and attacked harshly for policies other western democratic nation states have as well regarding nationality and citizenship for example. At the same time Israel has a much higher proportion of citizens, that are not members of the dominant group than other nation states.

      Non Jewish citizens have the same rights as Jews. There is discrimination and that needs to be addressed. However non Jews can be found throughout the institutions of the state of Israel, including university professors, army generals and Supreme Court members.

            That’s more bullshit

            Two primary groups live today in Israel and the OPT: Jewish Israelis and Palestinians. One primary sovereign, the Israeli government, rules over them.

            A stated aim of the Israeli government is to ensure that Jewish Israelis maintain domination across Israel and the OPT.

            In Israel, which the vast majority of nations consider being the area defined by its pre-1967 borders, the two tiered-citizenship structure and bifurcation of nationality and citizenship result in Palestinian citizens having a status inferior to Jewish citizens by law. While Palestinians in Israel, unlike those in the OPT, have the right to vote and stand for Israeli elections, these rights do not empower them to overcome the institutional discrimination they face from the same Israeli government, including widespread restrictions on accessing land confiscated from them, home demolitions, and effective prohibitions on family reunification.

            The Israeli government has also carried out discriminatory seizures of land inside Israel. Authorities have seized through different mechanisms at least 4.5 million dunams of land from Palestinians, according to historians, constituting 65 to 75 percent of all land owned by Palestinians before 1948 and 40 to 60 percent of the land that belonged to Palestinians who remained after 1948 and became citizens of Israel.
