To admit, I have no personal experience with censorship, as you seem to have.
I am always happy to learn new things and if I disagree with them, openly go against them having the privilege of freedom of speech.

Any censorship, military including, can be challenged in Israel, in court.

Somehow, I have the feeling that no matter how bad experience you might bring with Israeli censorship, it will look reasonable, compared to any country with similar security issues or any country in the Middle East…and yet, bashing Israel became a national sport…and if you think differently, you are called dishonest.
