We're not sure what you mean by "tyrannical". Here are a few facts that might
possibly address your curiosity:
-- Israel is a parliamentary democracy, with a government that parallels the model
of the British and Canadian governments. It has had no king or ruling family in
more than 2,000 years, and there is no political, popular, or religious sentiment
in favor of that.
-- All citizens of Israel, including males and females, of any religion, are allowed
to vote. The nation's parliament includes Christian, Muslim, and Jewish elected
male and female representatives.
-- Israel has no officially designated state religion.
-- Israel is the only nation in the region that has experienced no civil war, no
revolution, no mass anti-government demonstrations, and no widespread
political protests, and has had regular, frequent changes of government in
response to election results, since it became a nation.
-- Israel is one of the few nations in the world where a former president has been
tried, convicted of a crime, and sentenced to prison time, without a revolution or a
civil war.
-- Israel is one of the few nations in the world where a non-citizen, resident of an
adjacent territory dedicated to Israel's destruction, has brought a land-use suit,
against the Israeli government, in an Israeli court, and won !
-- More than 60 years after Israel became a sovereign nation and large shifts of
population in and out of the new country, Muslim Palestinian Arabs still live in
"refugee camps" in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, while Muslim Arab Israelis live in
towns, own land and homes, operate businesses, and elect their representatives
to national and local government.
-- An opinion has been expressed ... it's only an opinion, and you're free to disagree
if you have evidence to the contrary ... that Muslim Arab citizens of Israel have more
freedom and civil rights than they would have in any Muslim Arab nation.
-- When you get right down to it, Israel is the only nation in the region that has
publicly proclaimed its dedication to a "two state solution" to the Arab/Israeli tensions,
while its neighbors refer to Israel itself as the "Zionist project in Palestine", and pledge
themselves to its destruction. That may not be tyrannical, but it does seem a bit slimy.
