Germany is 40 countrys in 16 trenchcoats and contains even in its today borders more than just one ethnic group.
Also Russia??
INDIA????
Dude...
Israel is just as ethnically diverse as those you've listed. Druze, Arabs, Armenians, Bedouins, Samaritans, Turks, etc. in a nation of less than 10 million.
Yet only one ethnic group is represented in government and holds all legislative power and uses it to create a system of Apartheid
Are you high? What ethnic group is Ra'am? What ethnic group is Ta'al?
Are you disingenuous? How much political power do they hold?
So Israel is an "apartheid state" except that minorities have full rights of citizenship, vote, serve the government, hold positions of leadership in government, academia, business and medicine. But minority parties, representing a minority population, don't have more power? Are you even vaguely aware of how democracy works? And you think I'm the one being disingenuous?
Maybe inform yourself before you speak on the topic
