If you are referring to Palestinians technically they want/operate their own state. If you are referring to Muslim Israeli population its sort of a misrepresentation to say that they aren't represented. Here in America we have about a 15% Muslim population and no Muslims in elected positions in the federal government. Does that mean we are not a democracy? Democracy is a style of government not another would for equality. Even before African Americans and women had voting rights we were still a democracy. Don't make the mistake of confusing modern democratic values with democratic style government
