@tremon, not only that but the definition of "democracy" is being increasingly stretched by modern politicians. For example many will have something to say about the Trump definition of "democracy" that we saw only just recently in the US. Others might have something to say about the Johnson definition of "democracy" in the UK. Others might not exactly consider Israel a democracy given the way they treat the Palestinians on their doorstep. People are often all to quick to jump on "democratic country" as if its a simple definition of a country that is beyond reproach. The trouble is that modern politicians spoil that rose-tinted view.
