    Did you even read
    • the legal paper abstract
    • the 412-9-1 resolution - ask yourself whom you are aligning yourself with
    • the article explaining in detail why Israel does not meet the definition
    You are too intelligent to keep parroting false propaganda - while a genocidal terrorist organization is holding civilian hostages from the so-called "apartheid state" to boot.

    BTW - while Mandela was a great man individually, he was of course not right about everything all the time - and the ANC is an absolute disaster - a prime example of a corrupt, lost, failed socialist organization that has steadily led South Africa on a downward path and that is - of course - ideologically aligned with Hamas.

    Hell, they just had a Hamas delegation as official government guests in South Africa.

    Imagine if this smart Muslim Arab woman had to live under Hamas rule instead of experiencing freedom and opportunity in the free state of Israel.

    Apartheid my ass.

    She is lucky to have lived in Israel.

    Jesus was Jewish, born in Israel.

    Israel. Is. Not. An. Apartheid. State.

    Only leftist or Islanist Jew haters and those who parrot their nonsense hold that opinion.

    See: House of Representatives.

    I'll tell you why the unreflected and foolish parroting of the "apartheid state" narrative angers me:

    • It is simply not true (see above).
    • It directly serves the narrative of Hamas terrorists who thereby justify their atrocities as "resistance", which is laughable. Rape, kidnapping and murder aren't "resistance".
    • It incites further hate and violence and antisemitism globally, as we can see on US campuses, in big cities, everywhere.

    Ask yourself:

    How many Jews are allowed to live and move freely in Gaza? Zero.

    How many Arab Muslims live, with more civil rights than in Gaza and the West Bank - the same as Jews - in Israel? Two million.

    Gaza is the apartheid state, not Israel!

    Now, if you want to make an argument that people in Gaza and the West Bank are subject to security checks and import controls, etc. - this is not "apartheid" - it is caused by legitimate security concerns - the Palestinians have shown time and time again, and stated it publicly, that they will use any and all resources to continue their genocide against Jews and other Israelis.

    The apartheid narrative is wrong, and it causes more hate, violence and death.

    You literally see leftists (and Muslims) in the West shouting "by any means necessary", labeling Hamas' actions, including rape, as "resistance", directly justifying them based on the "apartheid" narrative you guys irresponsibly propagate.

    The silence from leftist "feminists" when it comes to the documented rapes of Israeli women has been deafening.

    The implied message has been lound and clear: "Rape is wrong, except when it's committed against a Jewish Israeli woman, then it's "resistance against apartheid - 'by any means necessary'".

    People who irresponsibly spout that apartheid nonsense deliver the ideological justification for unspeakable crimes. They do bear some responsibility.

    I have provided plenty of reasons why your claim of apartheid is wrong. You provided nothing but "someone said it", and "it is difficult to have a dialogue with someone who doesn't believe us".

    The only genocide was committed on October 7th - which you enthusiastically supported.

    As i already said millions of times before, you're either laughably ignorant about the conflict or you're a hypocrite liar. Either way, it's not good.
