The camp was guarded by Israeli troups, who co ordinated with the malita, allowed them to enter the camps and prevented any of the refugees from leaving until the slaughter was complete. That's why the Israeli troups took overall blame for an act og genocide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiki says "The IDF received reports of some of the Phalanges atrocities in Sabra and Shatila but did not take any action to prevent or stop the massacre" What is for certain is that it was in Lebanon and it was done by Lebanese group as a retaliation for the assassination of newly elected Lebanese president. So if you want to accuse Israel of genocide by association, by all means feel free to do so, but then you can accuse UK of the same From the Nazi rise to power through to the outbreak of war, Great Britain had access to information and evidence about the Nazi’s actions and policies. However, there was very little protest from the British government. This political and diplomatic weakness encouraged Hitler to continue his brutal policies against the Jews and his political enemies. Hitler was also initially able to develop his policy of expansion across Europe, with little official reaction from Great Britain.https://www.theholocaustexplained.org/responses-1933-1945/governments-respond-1933-1939/ And US, for turning away ship carrying 937 jews fleeing Nazi's and list goes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some say Israel knew? How could they not know? It was therir camp. Israeli troups were guarding the camp when the attack happened. They allowed the phalangists to enter, which was pre arranged, and prevented the Palestinian refugees from leaving until the slaughter was complete. Men, women and children. Which is why the Macbride report concluded that Israel must take responsibility for the genocide. The rest of your post has absolutely nothing to do with the Palestinian- Israeli conflict and, yet again, is pure deflection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facts are there are over 2 million arabs with Israeli citizenship happily living in Israel There is an Arab party in Israeli government It is illegal to discriminate or even to speak bad or make any racial comments in public. On the other hand, some facts are, Palestinians living in refuge camps in Jordan for 70 years still as refuges with no rights to work or prospect of citizenship even for those born in Jordan, second or third generation. No right of voice and do not forget the slaughter of Black September. Same applies to Palestinians living in Egypt or any other neighboring country. But of course letting facts get in a way of good repetitive nonsense is a new fashion More than 65 Israeli laws discriminate against Palestinian citizens of Israel in all areas of life, including their rights to political participation, access to land, education, state budget resources, and criminal procedures. https://www.adalah.org/en/content/view/7771 Or if you prefer to hear it from the horse's mouth...Netanyahu's comment on Israel's Basic Nation State Law "Israel is not a state of all its citizens.

So if, as you claim, Israel is such a marvellous democracy and the Israeli treatment of its 20% Israeli Palestinian minority is so wonderful, why not extend it to the 2.75 million Palestinians in the West Bank that Israel is about to include within its newly expanded borders?

canthai55 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Same old story. The Pro Israel people will not listen to any facts presented to them. In their eyes they can do no wrong. It is all the fault of others who wish to overthrow this Great State and not allow them to annex any property they want, deny basic human rights to the people living there, and develop the property for themselves. Their Arrogance is exceeded only by their Ignorance. Sad to say the only solution to this problem which I can see lies with Iran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's the false rant of all false rants! Israel is the largest recipient of US aid. Almost 3 times more than Egypt. Using it to buy arms is far more reprehensible than using it for humanitarian reasons. You're doing your beloved Israel no favours with your rants.
