    Yep - a lot of westerners fail to understand that a majority of Israelis have middle-eastern or north-African ancestry, even if excluding the large arab Israeli demographic. Depicting the people of Israel as a monolith is a very crude oversimplification

        That is simply incorrect. I suggest that you educate yourself further on the topic and refrain from making similarly uninformed statements on related topics in the future.

        Here is the wikipedia page of all current members of knesset:

        https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_members_of_the_twenty-fifth_Knesset

        Going from the top of the list of current knesset members, we have Likud party members (the current ruling party).

        No. 4 on the list is Amir Ohana, current speaker of the Knesset. He is the child of two moroccan jews, and also happens to be gay.

        No. 7 Shlomo Karhi, minister of Communications, Tunisian heritage.

        No. 8 David Bitan - born in Morocco.

        Q.E.D, feel free to find more examples on your own, there are plenty.

          Knesset has 0 power in this state. This state is a settler colonial authoritarian terrorist state that has zero democracy. The terrorist state of Israel has none of the pillars of democracy.
