Please don't be so obtuse. Obviously when I write Israel, I mean the policies of the democratically elected Israeli government.
And save the old "basis in prejudice' line that defenders of Israeli policy trot out anytime the actions of the Israeli government or military are criticized.
The situation in Gaza and what has been done to average Palestinians living there speaks volumes. To suggest Israeli policy is wrong is hardly 'prejudice'.
