#2 All that land was gifted by the creator to the Jews. It says that in the christian bible, but still the vermin claim some rights to it.

#3 A state that

- uses Israeli currency because they have none of their own
- a President whose term ended 5 years ago and who never seems to get around to authorizing a new election
- a President whose life would be ended if he entered Gaza - which is supposedly part of the state
- a State that gets about 60% of their national income from donor countries
- a state that names streets and town squares after suicide bombers

Hereditary monarchies and sultanates and such don't elect their leaders, as I recall, and all terms of office are for life.
