65. Israel has been a democracy since its founding in 1948.
Like all democracies it must pay the price for all decisions of its elected government. How could it be otherwise?

Does the UN have a "Get Out of Responsibility" card for democracies that fuck up - like we did in Viet Nam or Iraq? No. But they sure are doing their best to provide the Palestinians with one of those.
