They're dying to get into another war.

You are out of order now. Stop trolling. You said to me, 'the truth hurts' when in fact there is no truth and you, as usual avoid answering a simple quetion, as you can't , fair enough. I expect an apology is something you find difficult.

You say 'the truth hurts' - what truth is that?

What truth? "No knowledge of the article"? What do you mean? You are speaking in riddles.

Why the animosity?

Thanks for the clear answer. I agree with the UN(and Amnesty), there is apartheid in Israel. This, INHO, probably led to the current war.

They were a catalyst in this war, not the reason. You knew that already.

The UN says there is Apartheid in Israel. You are reluctant to agree with them. Do you think there is Apartheid in Israel?

Which terrorists?

Do you want this to happen?

I know you told me, I was making a statement. Sorry, your answer is not clear - do you disagree with the UN?

Same as the UK govt.

You don't agree with Amnesty International. How about the United Nations, do you disagree with them too? “Another two million Palestinians live in Gaza, described regularly as an ‘open-air prison’, without adequate access to power, water or health, with a collapsing economy and with no ability to freely travel to the rest of Palestine or the outside world”, he added. https://news.un.org/en/story/2022/03/1114702

Incredible. Any normal, unblinkered person condemns both sides. Unlike Biden, who wants a war with Iran as he knows war time presidents get reelected.

Indeed. I understand racism and discrimination as a white Thai. In the last 3 months I was told I couldn't get the Thai price at my local golf course because my face wasn't the same as the caddy master. Also, told I couldn't join the oldest club in the country due to my colour. However, I'm not going to kill anyone, I can see how apartheid could drive people to murder

I disagree, I'm learning a lot though. Never been there but would love to visit the Holy Land. I love Judaism. Edit - how does saying Apartheid is not kind showing knowledge of ME affairs?

Reports from Israel and Pal, sources. It seems there is already segregation, depending on your license plate. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-05-02/ty-article/.premium/israel-advancing-plans-for-apartheid-road-in-strategic-west-bank-area/00000187-d6cb-d6a1-ad87-fedb4b8a0000 https://visualizingpalestine.org/visuals/segregated-roads-west-bank

Apartheid is not kind.

I'm checking them out now. Like many here, I was appalled at eh Oct 7 attack but gradually realising that Palestinians have been killed, discriminated against for years. I had no idea it was so terrible. I think it is not off topic. If Israel have committed war crimes before the incident, as well as now, they should be accountable.

It is interesting to read both sides.

It certainly seems that way to me.

You're welcome. Not sure why the animosity but hey ho.

A member has absolutely no integrity, making false allegations then running away..

Thanks, I'll check it out later . Surprised more Jews outside Israel don't believe it is Apartheid. Among respondents to the survey commissioned by the Jewish Electorate Institute, a group led by prominent Jewish Democrats, 34 percent agreed that “Israel’s treatment of Palestinians is similar to racism in the United States,” 25% agreed that “Israel is an apartheid state” and 22% agreed that “Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/poll-finds-a-quarter-of-us-jews-think-israel-is-apartheid-state/

Interesting, thank - the AJC will have some unbiased reporting! I'd rather stick to reports from Amnesty International for unbiased reports. It seems quite clear that the Apartheid in Israel is partly responsible for the current war. Do you agree with what they write in this report? https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2022/02/israels-system-of-apartheid/
