it seems that the israeli's are in a contest with themselves to prove how corrupt they are;

Israel on Sunday expelled the in-country director of Human Rights Watch from the country. Israel thereby joins dictatorships such as Uzbekistan, Burundi, Azerbaijan, and Egypt, which have also expelled HRW human rights workers.

Breathless headlines in the US are saying that Israel became the first democracy to do so, but the expulsion is happening because Israel is not actually a democracy. Or, it is a democracy in the same way that Apartheid South Africa was, where whites voted and had parties and a parliament and a prime minister despite an authoritarian secret police, but where black Africans were denied the vote. Israel rules over 5 million Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank and Gaza (who have no state and cannot vote in the Israeli elections that determine their fates), and over another 1.8 million who are second class citizens of Israel and whose elected representatives are excluded from the cabinet. That’s not a democracy, and the Israeli ethno-state is involved in a vast project of ethnic cleansing and colonial settling.

Israel invaded and occupied Palestine in 1967 and has flooded 600,000 Israeli squatters onto Palestinian-owned land, stealing it from its rightful owners. If the Palestinian territory Israel annexed to its province of Jerusalem is counted, the total number of squatters comes to 800,000. Settling one’s own population in Occupied territories is forbidden by the 1949 4th Geneva convention on the treatment of occupied populations...........https://www.juancole.com/2019/11/expelling-uzbekistan-authoritarian.html
