I wish Israel would accept palestinians as members of Israel. This would help the tensions in the area.

Mate, how do you believe we could influence policy regarding Israel? For example, how could Americans convince American government to end arms aid to Israel? Would they need to have demonstrations or...?
Doubt it. Funding seems perpetual and the public cannot punish the government in any way to put an end to all this.Mate, how do you believe we could influence policy regarding Israel?

But isn't that sad? We cannot punish the government when there is corruption going on, we cannot control them to make sure they fulfill the promises they've made when they were to be elected, we cannot make them hear our voices and actually try to represent us, which is the basic point of a democracy!
It is sad but nowhere near how populations in ME(back where I'm from) can't at all influence anything. It causes a lot of seperatism/frustration over there.
You know the saying: "If your vote mattered, we wouldn't let you vote".But isn't that sad?
