Israel has America by the balls. America will simp for Israel, so Israel will get away with it.

They should condemn them for practicing circumcision

The UN has its own problems, namely that it's useless as fuck and will say and do literally anything to avoid the job they know they have on their plate, that is to say, holding China accountable for all the fucked-up shit it does.

Changing the subject, eh? So, how about that apartheid state?

What we did to South Africa, we need to do to Israel. International ostracism. Exclusion from sporting events, etc.

how did ending apartheid work out for south africa? is there greater stability there now? is there less murder there now? is there less disease and starvation there now? what is it about the people in these other parts of the world that leaves them unable to solve their own problems and dependent on our intervention? we ought devote our time and energy to solving our own problems and improving the quality of life in our own country, for our own family.

That means ending aid to Israel. You sure about that?

[–]restlessincanada 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

it means ending foreign entanglements and intervention in foreign conflicts. that includes but is not limited to isreal and the conflict there.

I don't care two shits about Israel for good or ill. I don't know anyone from there, I don't have family there and neither does my boyfriend (hopefully husband soon enough), my duty is to my family and my partner's family. My concerns in that part of the world if anything relate to whether or not war there is affecting either the country I live in or the country my boyfriend is from, and for a brief moment, whether tourism in Egypt is safe because my Dad won a trip there off some stupid betting thing.

The only time the right-wing nutters agree with the UN.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

a clock stopped at 23:59:60 is only right once every couple of years

So as long as Jews are genocided you're good with it. Noted.

[–]Chipit[S] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (4 children)

Wow, an amazing leap of logic there. Israel practicing apartheid is the same as advocating for genocide. How'd you get from one to the other?

The solution is for Israel to stop practicing apartheid. Moreover, they constantly advocate for open borders for other countries; let them open their own borders to the world.

Israel isn't practicing apartheid you Nazi.

[–]Chipit[S] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

??

This is literally the topic. An independent panel of experts found that Israel practices apartheid. Which it does. It's not like it's a secret. Israel was BFF with South Africa back in the day and learned much. If you don't think Israel is an apartheid state, just try to buy land.

You mean a group of jew hating globalists who hate the nation state. FTFY.

[–]Chipit[S] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

What specific arguments would you like to make against the premise that Israel practices apartheid? Are Jews allowed to marry non Jews legally? How about purchasing land? Aren't those dead giveaways of an apartheid system?

[–]grassfed 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Yes

[–]aaarrgh 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

did they finally find out?

[–]restlessincanada 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

maybe we should stop trying to force people with radically different beliefs and cultures together. especially in other parts of the world outside of our borders. what good has ever come, what good could possibly come, from forcing together people who do not want to be together? has ending apartheid ever resulted in something better? one thing is certain, the un is a threat to the national sovereignty of all its members and should be disbanded along with all of its subsidiary organizations.

It's hilarious how this topic brings out people desperate to defend this hate state that was literally founded on ethnic cleansing.

[–]jet199 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah, it was terrible how the arabs and turks decided to wipe out all the Jews and Christians in their countries.

i have no interest in defending or attacking isreal, i am interested only in defending canada. for the sake of our own men and women in the armed forces we should stay out of these foreign conflicts and for the sake of our own democracy and our own right to self government we should stay out of the un.

The UN Special Rapporteur’s report echoes recent findings by Palestinian, Israeli and international human rights organisations who analized Israel’s 55-year occupation of the Palestinian Territory.

So does Japan but nobody ever points out that elephant in the room.
