LETTER: Israel much more democratic than SA

The new government is one third of Mizrahi origin , 44 ministers and deputy ministers, 17 ministers not of the ruling party . Three totally different political parties make up the new government — is this democracy at work or what? SA has a total of 61 ministers and deputy ministers, only one white minister — Barbara Creecy, only one white deputy minister, John Jeffries, only one minister not from the ruling party.

Every civil and municipal department is staffed by both Palestinian and Israeli personnel. Israeli Palestinians serve in both the police and military at all levels up to staff officer, regardless of gender. Does anyone remember the ANC government criticising its sister African country Egypt which shares a common border with Gaza for destroying a 10km strip of housing along the border for “security” reasons? There was indeed a deafening silence from all quarters.

An ApartheidIsrael cannot be 'democratic', by definition.

Who cares?

This is more like. We all know Israel is a devil, but still it is a better devil than SA. Is this a good way of redeeming someone though?
