for contradicting your treasured beliefs. The Arabs who were demonstrating are citizens of Israel. They were not chased out. They have freedom of expression, and right to the democratic process. They don't have to die in defense of the country, however.

Hamas and IJ are the "militants" that you keep talking about in reference to terrorist organizations, so yr the one that confirms the equation with an armed military group.

And of course, the other Arab nations like Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Syria are somewhat militarized as well, in case you haven't noticed.

However, I was speaking in general terms to compare with a parallel hypothetical situation; what would have to be to compare Australia with Israel.
