Countries, as a rule, don’t have a right to exist. People have a right to self-determination. These are different things. That said, Israel is fundamentally an Apartheid state. If Israel stopped being an Apartheid state it’d stop being Israel. And if a state needs to treat half the people in it as second class citizens to exist then it can go die in a ditch.
Maintaining that an Apartheid state has the right to keep being an Apartheid state is very Nazi-like.
Zionism calls for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. You literally can’t have that without fascism. It’s impossible.
Nope I just misremembered.
I mean maybe it’s not, but I don’t see how that’s related to my point.
That wasn’t my intention. The ICC is actually called a colonialist tool and criticized for only going after nations opposed to Western interests. If they go after Russia but not Israel that pretty much confirms the accusations are true, is what I wanted to say.
Yes and no. It was originally the dilemma until they got around it by committing the Nakba.
Okay not saying they don’t deserve the warrants, but after this if they don’t issue one for Netanyahu nobody will take them seriously ever again.
I mean the Bible is like that too and fundamentalist Christians exist no?
Lemme just grab the world’s smallest piano.
BDS has a list of companies to, well, boycott, divest and sanction so you might wanna look at that.
I mean okay. I’m not sure how true that is, but what I’m trying to say isn’t “fuck Biden”; it’s “Netanyahu is making shit up”.
He paused a shipment. Overall flow of weapons from the US to Israel hasn’t changed.
But Biden has slowed weapon shipments to Israel
He hasn’t. Netanyahu is making up shit because he can.
I hope they don’t learn anything from this. The US military should just get the fuck out of the Middle East.
Yasser Arafat was an Israeli and American puppet who got the west bank into the situation that it’s in in the first place.
How so?
coming back hundreds of years.
Huh? The conflict began about a hundred years ago.
You can claim this was a provoked attack. I for once can hardly justify an attack on civilians.
The attack had real military objectives. It wasn’t just “let’s kill some civilians in Israel”.
IMO the best outcome at the moment is to stop the conflict as soon as possible
Only one side has the power to do that. Putting the oppressed and the oppressor on the same level only serves to justify their oppression.
The idea that the best outcome is to stop the conflict as soon as possible is correct, but for that you need Israel to acknowledge Palestinains’ right to self-determination.
but they still chose violence over diplomacy.
Look at the PA and tell me that diplomacy with Israel works again.
I legit can’t tell if this is sarcasm.
