this is an interesting way of finding apartheid in israel. The concept being that israel is in a unique situation that has no parallels with other countries throughout history, hence any comparison to other countries is considered "null and void" thereby giving one a free rein to call out israel on anything while at the same time proclaiming that looking at any world standard is irrelevant.
the fact that every country is unique and that every situation is in fact unique apparently does not stop the rest of the world from comparing countries to each other as a method to understand reactions and policies
