You suggested that Israel was a "bad" democracy, like South Africa. I countered that the argument wasn't valid because Israel-Palestine is two governments, one a mature nation, the other an 'authority' enroute to statehood, arguing over land, while South Africa was one entity, one crappy government, with all the black folk shoved into concentration camps.

They Eyak tribal council doesn't have a seat at the UN. They're hardly equivalent.

The Palestinian issue IS an important one, but it is separate from the matter of the incursions by HizbAllah across the Jordanian border. There's a tendency to lump, and it's a mistake. Most Palestinians think those fundamental shi'as are, to put it kindly, batshit crazy.
