The article argues that Israel is often described as “the only democracy in the Middle East,” but democracy has not stopped its cruel treatment of Palestinians.

Recently, Minister Ben-Gvir waved a flag in front of detained pro-Palestinian activists and said, “This is ours.”

zhè xiē这些huó dòng rén shì活动人士dāng shí当时zuò chuán坐船gěijiā shā加沙sòngshí wù食物yào pǐn药品quèbèiyǐ jūn以军lán xià拦下bìngdài zǒu带走

Those activists were on a boat delivering food and medicine to Gaza, but they were stopped by the Israeli army and taken away.

The author says this shows that some Israeli politicians use toughness and humiliating others as a way to win votes.

The author also points out that some Western countries react quickly when foreign activists are humiliated, but often do not treat the long-term suffering of Palestinians with the same seriousness.

zhè zhǒng这种bù tóng不同detài dù态度bèipī píng批评wèigōng píng公平shuō míng说明yī xiē一些guó jiā国家zàirén quán人权wèn tí问题shàngyǒushuāng chóng biāo zhǔn双重标准

This different attitude is criticized as unfair and as evidence that some countries have double standards on human rights.

The article ends by saying that many Western governments continue to support Israel, so this violence has never really been stopped.
