\'\'Some of the main complaints many have against Israel lie in its continued occupation of what is considered Palestinian land since 1967 and the subsequent settlement on this land coupled with alleged abuses on Palestinian civilians causing significant Anti Israeli sentiment outside the Middle East, with many calling it a Racist and/or Apartheid state due to this abuse, and the circumstances of its founding (despite the fact this was actually how many states in the area were founded during the same time period due to multiple empires leaving and partitioning former territories) and calling Palestinian terrorists \

\\\'\\\'Some of the main complaints many have against Israel lie in its continued occupation of what is considered Palestinian land since 1967 and the subsequent settlement on this land coupled with alleged abuses on Palestinian civilians causing significant Anti Israeli sentiment outside the Middle East, with many calling it a Racist and/or Apartheid state due to this abuse, and the circumstances of its founding (despite the fact this was actually how many states in the area were founded during the same time period due to multiple empires leaving and partitioning former territories) and calling Palestinian terrorists \\\"freedom fighters\\\" which has a heap of Unfortunate Implications given the often genocidal objectives of many such organisations. This has been compounded by a large number of UN General Assembly and Security Council resolutions supporting these points and decrying Israel\\\'s actions. However, the fact Israel is a liberal democracy with one of the best human rights records in the region compared to its far more theocratic and human rights-deficient neighbors (with issues such as gay and female rights being particularly noteworthy), as well as Palestinian terrorism and attacks on civilians giving some justification to Israel\\\'s occupation of Palestinian land (given nations like Iran actively fund and arm terrorist movements there, Israel pulling out would result in a massively anti-Israel state forming on its doorstep, which could then pose a significant threat to Israel\\\'s existence should a nation like Iran continue pouring in money and arms as they have promised) has guaranteed an equal support of Israel.\\\'\\\'
Needs a drastic rewrite. Bascially an apologetic for Israel\\\'s more controversial actions.
Again, while Palestinian attacks against random civilians are deplorable, the part about the Israeli occupation is basically reversing cause and effect.
Calling yourself a pinnacle of democracy and human rights in a region like the Middle East veers into OverlyNarrowSuperlative.
Referring to \\\"alleged abuses\\\" when many human rights groups (including international and Israeli groups) have reliably documented them is probably also not a good idea.
