John Kerry: Isreal Risks Becoming An Apartheid State

[Jukai]

i'm referrring to a citizens marrying a non israeli non jew. and overall immigration laws.

Yeah, I mean, it ain't perfect man, I agree. There is a lot of shitty laws that are clearly racist.

But it ain't anywhere near apartheid South Africa, I mean they are leagues away.

but that's why kerry said they are moving in that direction. but if you look at the roman definition it's hard to say they aren't apartheid. they may not be as bad as south africa, but that's not a standard i'd want to hold myself to.

Nicky, it's hilarious how you have Jukai as # 3 on your all time racist list.

 

[Its Me Austin]

ask them what? they are aware that american christians are some of the most ignorant people in the first world and think somehow baby jesus will come back if the jews have israel.

Why they stand aside and let Israel do whatever they want.

because i don't ask questions i know the answer too.

It's the Middle East, man... I swear to god, nothing in that shithole can stay pure.

lol well then stop defending them in these threads.

 

[Hollywood Nicky]

lol well then stop defending them in these threads.

i'm actually happy kerry is trying to use tough talk and obama openly can't stand bibi.

it's a step in the right direction. if obama was bush we would have invaded syria and iran by now.

 

[Its Me Austin]

lol at them being "tough" on Israel.

 

[LionExMachina]

the list is accurate!

Oh great, yet another p4p rankings discussion on Sherdog....

 

[IDL]

lol at them being "tough" on Israel.

A little theatrics to keep people wondering. Politicians are paid actors.

 

[AgentOrange24]

I wasn't aware that Arab-Israeli's were second class citizens.

 

[Hollywood Nicky]

I wasn't aware that Arab-Israeli's were second class citizens.

how were you not aware?

 

[o'dubhlaoich]

I wasn't aware that Arab-Israeli's were second class citizens.

Google how Israel treats the Ethiopian Jews.

 

[Diamond Jim]

not a big deal because it was a dem who said it and he said it about israel, so no problem. move along. Donald sterling is racist!

If he was a republican his own party would remove him tonight from office on the grounds that we must defend Israel to the death for they are god's chosen people.

Arabs (and other minorities in Israel) have a equal rights to Israeli Jews. They have voting rights, political parties and the ability to serve in the government. They can take their grievances to the Supreme Court, in which there have been Arab Justices/Cabinet members etc. They receive welfare/healthcare. They can study/teach in the universities as Israeli Jews. There are affirmative action laws and they can run their own businesses. They have equal rights to lease government land, and so on. The difference is they are forced to serve in the military. Israel isn't perfect; however, to compare the actions of the state of Israel to Apartheid South Africa is just insane.

South Africans who have lived in Apartheid deem the comparison accurate. But of course you know better.

"I go and I visit the Holy Land and I see things that are a mirror image of the sort of things that I experienced under the apartheid" Tutu told HuffPost Live host Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani. "How can you stop me from the right to describe as I feel. You go anywhere in the world and if I see things that mirror the kind of experience that I know first-hand, I think it's cheek in a way for someone else to tell you, 'no, you are wrong in feeling as you feel about what you have seen"

Apartheid states generally die out. We can only hope the same for Israel. But we're going to have to make it happen - it won't happen by itself.

It still amazes me how a hyper-power can be so politically in thrall to such a small demographic. I just don't understand it. The Dems and Repubs can't agree on what color the sky is but when it comes to to isreal they are tripping over each other for a chance to suck that countries dick.

(Disclaimer: Not a jew-hater or anything like that)

When people say Jews control the west, they get called conspiracy theorist and all sorts of names. But as you say if there is one thing politicians not only in America, but in Europe all agree on is Israel and how if they get in power they would defend Israel with everything they have. The simple truth trust is money rules politics and Jews have alot of money. Look at how the republicans who want to run for president are auditioning for Adelson and are trying to outdo each other on their loyalty towards Israel

Really? I didn't realize black people were a country taking political action, which is what Kerry was criticizing. Criticism of Israel =/= anti-Semitism. This is one of the most aggravating false equivalencies that neo-cons make all the time.

huh? i didnt say anything about anti-semitism. all i said was that there will be no outrage because the left vehemently hates israel, so he can say what he wants and there will be no outrage. as for the sterling quote, it was meant to say that this is a much more important issue to the left. making sure sterling gets what he has coming.

this is one of the most aggravating things about liberal douchebags. they always try to put words in your mouth so it fits their narrative

 

[ProBoxingInsidr]

are you suggesting calling israel an apartheid state is somehow racist?

no, i was saying that liberals are much more concerned with the REALLY important issues like stopping donald sterling
