I'll tell you how and what I believe and you'll just have to accept it

Israel gets more criticism because of it being a modernized nation. It's like Canadians criticizing Canada more than other nations. We have to better ourselves to better other people. I criticize the US more because it is supposed to be a beacon of freedom, but all I have seen is more strife and war spread around the globe. Trying (but failing every step of the way) to solve a problem they've helped create a long time ago.

We know places like North Korea, Somalia and other corrupt nations are terrible through and through. The thing with Israel is that they are supposed to be a force for good, but when it comes to Palestine, the treatment of them is what many have a problem with. And when that is pointed out, there is a lot of push back.


Your first sentence is arrogant in tone. People on debate forums don't have to accept any opinion from you or anyone. Debate forums can and do generate different views.

Your second sentence about Israel getting more criticism because its modernized is not factually based. You assume without any objective proof or statistics that if a country is modern it gets criticized more. You throw out Canada is criticized more with no statistics of comparison.

In fact Canada is not held to the same standard with its treatment of aboriginals as Jews are in Israel. To start with Jews in Israel are incorrectly denied the status of being aboriginal when they are. That has nothing to do with modernization.

The double standard that a Muslim can have a Muslim sharia law nation, Britain can be an Anglican nation, Vatican City a Catholic one, India a Hindu one but Jews should not have a Jewish state has nothing to do with modernization and everything to do with the discriminatory concept that a Jew should not have the same rights to a national collective identity as other religious groups.

When Israel is criticized, its usually criticized because its a Jewish state not because its modern. Its very existence of being Jewish is what criticized not the advancement of its sciences and technologies.

No one criticizes Israel for being modern except who you?

Your last sentence shows you are anti Israel and so perpetuate the myth and stereotype of Palestinians being victimized by a "bad" Israel.

Your description of Israel supposed to be doing "good" but doing "bad" are personal subjective assumptions based on your biases and no I don't have to accept them. They simply represent your subjective anti Israel opinions. In fact they  mean nothing to me.

Objective criteria used to point out weaknesses or problems with specific Israeli state policies might.
