Busting mindless cliches about Israel

There is no genocide

A genocide is the deliberate annihilation of a people for being who they are. Aside from the MASSIVE proofs from reputable statisticians that the numbers produced by the Hamas health ministry are impossible, the casualties are collateral. As in not deliberate targets. But killed In an attempt to kill Hamas fighters (often aided and abetted by civilians) civilians are being killed. Like they are in every war. Not as deliberate targets but as a consequence of Hamas exploiting the population’s suffering (caused by them) as a means of turning world opinion against Israel. Go figure. People in living rooms find images of war troubling. Because they are. They represent the absence of civilization. An an absence in this case perpetrated by HAMAS and their Palestinian Arab acolytes who refuse to surrender … mostly because dipshits give them hope that they may actually succeed in getting stuff by violence and victimhood. If anything, this war has demonstrated a new capacity on the part of a very powerful army to avoid civilian casualties. I do not agree with what Israel is doing. I think they should take the gloves off and completely repudiate Hamas and their evil ideology to the entire world unapologetically, but they won’t, and still, despite their incredible care to avoid civilian casualties, which puts their own soldiers at great risk, dipshits, call them genocidal.

There is no apartheid state

There was a wall erected between Gaza and Israel. After the second intifada were Palestinian maniacs were crossing over into Israel, and blowing up, running over, hacking to death, and stabbing to death, Israeli citizens. But a stronger wall was built between Egypt and Gaza, possibly for the same reason. Why don’t you call Egypt an apartheid state? They both recognize that the Gazans in particular, and the Palestinian Arabs in general, are infected by a pathological ideology that incentivizes violence. There are 2 million Arabs that live peacefully in Israel, in fact, they live in better, more prosperous conditions than in any other Arab country on the planet. These Arabs can serve in the army. The can vote. They participate in the political process as members. They are judges in courts of law… and they can and do volunteer to serve in the army. Last I saw none of these things would be allowed in an apartheid state. But it seems completely rational for both Egypt and Israel, to protect itself against a pathological society’s infiltration.

There is NO ethnic cleansing except by the Palestinians

How many Jews live in Gaza? When Jews move into the WB, why does it become an international incident. Why are settlements considered evil and the prevention of settlements not a form of racist redlining they actually are? Did you know I couldn’t visit Bethlehem with a Jew? Know why? They would murder him.
