Jag vill veta mer om hur de kunde få fram en så låg siffra. Vi har inte mindre fri och rättigheter än andra moderna länder.
The Economist Intelligence Unit som står bakom undersökningarna och Demokrati Indexet anser att Israel har mindre fri och rättigheter än många andra länder. De rankar Israel på plats 84 i fråga om enbart fri och rättigheter. Länder som rankas lika är Malaysia, Tunisien, Benin, Malawi, Uganda, Haiti, Thailand..
Länder som har högre ranking i dessa frågor är t.ex Ukraina, mexico, Ghana, Zambi, Senegal, Montenegro, Dominikanska Republiken, Ungern, Filippinerna, Indien och Albanien... och ytterligare 70+ länder
En rapport från 2016 finns hos Israel Democracy Institute

"The Israel Democracy Institute (IDI) is an independent center of research and action dedicated to strengthening the foundations of Israeli democracy.
IDI works to bolster the values and institutions of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state. A non-partisan think-and-do tank, the institute harnesses rigorous applied research to influence policy, legislation and public opinion. The institute partners with government, policy and decision makers, civil service and society, to improve the functioning of the government and its institutions, confront security threats while preserving civil liberties, and foster solidarity within Israeli society. Israel recognized the positive impact of IDI’s research and recommendations by conferring upon the institute its most prestigious award, the Israel Prize for Lifetime Achievement."
2016 hade Israel en högre poäng på fri och rättigheter än 2018 men ansågs då vara helt fel ute.... Samma bedömning görs 2017

"The civil liberties indicator, also produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit, is based on a combination of expert assessments, surveys of public opinion, and official government statistics.
It measures 17 parameters, including freedoms of the press, expression, protest, religion, and association; equality before the law; and level of personal security. This indicator is presented on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 representing full regard for civil liberties, and 0 a complete lack of respect for them. Israel’s score this year was 6.18, placing it in the 46–47th percentile among the 167 countries surveyed, a slight rise over last year’s ranking.
Nonetheless, this year’s score was again low, placing Israel in the third quartile of the scale, where it rubs shoulders with such undemocratic countries as Venezuela and Lebanon (and far removed from Central and Western Europe, and North America, and even Japan and India)—not at all where it should be in our view."
