This is not the definition of democracy. You just invented something. Which is cool but is not relevant.

People in Gaza who are indigenous to Palestine cannot vote in elections occurring in Palestine. That's not a democracy.

Now you are also inventing history. People in Gaza voted to elect Hamas in 2006. Since then the PA didn't held an elections.

What it has to do with Israel?

"Israel" is on their land, they have the right of return after all. They cannot vote in their homeland. Hence, no democracy.

So "poland" , "Netherlands", "Czechia" that kicked out ethnic Germans and don't allow their return are all not democracies.

Seriously, are you older than 5?

That analogy doesn't make any sense. Israelis are the Germans in your example, they invaded Palestine.

I can’t really have a conversation with someone who doesn’t know the history of Palestine. I suggest starting with the basics if you’re honest about wanting to know more:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba

Millions of muslims were ethnicaly cleaned when both "Greece" and "India" were created. So they are not democracy?

You really don't know history, the Germans lived there hundreds of years.

You are really 5 years old. Aren't you?

I’m not going to engage with someone insulting me and spreading false history.

Just because you are illiterate doesn't make those events disappear from history
