Afrasianet - Jamal Mohamed Taqi - The concept of democracy, as the concept of terrorism, has become elastic, vulgar, and shabby, in addition to its overwhelming relativism, firstly because there is no fixed standard definition to measure it, and secondly because of the widening of the gap between what is theoretical and practical in attempts to apply it to the coordinates of the prevailing reality, as democracy is translated as the rule of the people, by representatives chosen by them through direct or indirect mechanisms, but the practice of this rule through the system of the fabricated majority, and through political and partisan alliances that are partially compatible with some goals.
The announced electoral programs, for the sole purpose of achieving a 50+1 quorum of the parliament to pass the government formation and its program, and without taking the voter's opinion with this cocktail formation or the mutual concessions between its components, makes it eligible to mutate and retreat to something like spinning in a circle of real democratic fat in favor of the political bureaucracy and the effects of the means of disinformation and political money, not to mention that they give rise to popular reluctance and pragmatic elite turnout, especially since most of the actual participation rates in the Ballot does not necessarily express the electoral majority, and it is already suffering from a low majority, and this is what made democracy a slogan that lacks its substance in application, and therefore the prime minister of a well-established democratic country such as Sweden or Norway may have actually received less than 10 percent of the votes of those who are eligible to vote, and about 20 percent of the actual participants in the vote.
The possibility of a positive interaction with this situation and its causes is achieved for a fundamental reason that still exists, which is the equality of everyone before the law and the absence of all forms of racial discrimination among the members of the electoral incubator and in acceptable proportions, there is a state of equal opportunities for all the population regardless of color, gender, religion, wealth and national slope, but if we make some kind of applications to the so-called democracy in Israel, we will find that discrimination and lack of equal opportunities are the essence of the existing political and electoral system, and this is what suffers from it the most. The law of the Jewish state, the limitation of the right to self-determination to Jews only, the practice of political isolation towards Palestinian representatives in Israel, and the security prosecutions of making every Palestinian accused until proven otherwise, all reflect racist, isolationist and exclusionary premises against a key component of Israeli society. Even before the establishment of the Israeli entity!
Democracy and human rights are two sides of the same coin:
The United Nations Human Rights Committee has formulated a number of elements to promote a common understanding of the principles and values of democracy, based on international human rights instruments, and we will mention all of them for comparison, in judging Israel's claims of democracy. Respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. Second: Freedom of association. Third: Freedom of expression and opinion. Fourth: Access to power and its exercise in accordance with the rule of law. Fifth: Holding free and fair periodic elections by universal suffrage and secret ballot as an expression of the will of the people. Sixth: A pluralistic system of political parties and organizations. Seventh: Separation of powers. Eighth: Independence of the judiciary. Ninth: Transparency and accountability in public administration. Tenth: Free, independent and pluralistic media. Let's start from the priority of human rights and respect for basic freedoms, does Israel really respect the basic rights of Palestinians who hold Israeli citizenship, whose number according to the latest census of the Israeli authorities is 2,118,000 Palestinians?
The persecution and persecution include those who disagree and object to the fascist approach of the Zionist rule, even among the Jews themselves, and the Zionists deliberately prevent and silence the free media inside and outside Israel, especially in the occupied Palestinian territories, specifically Gaza, in order to obfuscate the truth of the actions of their criminal government, even the judiciary, courts and independent bodies that the Zionists portrayed as fortresses to protect democracy and the rule of law, which have proven their fragility in the face of the fascist incursion into the state and society!
If we make some kind of application to the so-called democracy in Israel, we will find that discrimination and lack of equal opportunities are at the core of the existing political and electoral system, and this is what more than two million Palestinian citizens of Israel suffer.
The democratic mask does not cover the occupation and extermination:
"You cannot be a free and democratic human being at home, and an occupier, usurper and murderer abroad, because human values, ethics and principles are one and indivisible, and if the opposite happens, it means that there is an imbalance in your humanity." Israel presents itself as an oasis of democracy in the Middle East, and it considers its establishment an extension of the West's democracy in all its superficial and deep specifications and goes further in classifying itself as part of the Western civilization, and Israel does not flatten this lineage, as it is the protégé of the colonial West in its face The settler, and its reference is his reference, since the days of the decline of Catholicism and the conversion towards Protestantism, which sounded the alarm bell for the Judaization of Christianity and thus the Judaization of the structure of its economic societies during the transition from commercial capitalism to industrial capitalism and to where the banks are the temples of the new religion of the West. that it is America, but they found it a continent that is difficult to swallow and digest and all the false eyes on it, especially the elite of the Anglo-Saxon people, until an idea emerged in which all the elements of the interests of white imperialism and Zionist Jewish capitalism were served, so the crystallization was with the Zionist elite led by Herzl and the project of the Jewish state in Palestine, and the Balfour Declaration came as a consort of Sykes-Picot, and where the Jewish exodus to Palestine was intermittent, and it was not enough, until Hitler came with elections that were said to be a democracy suitable for its time, and served with Zionism in terrorizing the Jews and forcing them to emigrate almost forcibly or die, and indeed he provided a lifetime of service to the Zionists when he killed those who fell into his hands, and as soon as the war ended, the State of Israel established in Palestine a compensation and rewarding sympathy for the surviving Jews of Europe, giving those who do not own to those who do not deserve it, as if Palestine were a land without a people.
Partition and the Nakba, then the occupation of all of Palestine from the sea to the river and the occupation of what is available from Syrian and Lebanese lands, and the rope is still on the tractor, between an entity that wants to collect what does not combine – an absolute heavenly right and a worldly democratic infallibility that believes that all human beings are equal in rights and duties – and those who are confronted by the free people of Palestine and the world!
