    If Greece was doing what Israel is doing and my fellow Greek electors were responsible for electing for 20 years in free and fair elections the government that does it AND they were polling the government coalition responsible for doing it first for the next election AND in opinion polls overwhelmingly supported the genocide and I was one of the few brave souls doing the protesting, not only would I be ok with the conflation, I would be encouraging.

    Holding autocracies to account is easy: send the dictator to the Hague.

    Holding democracies (even flawed ones like Israel’s) to account is harder.
