I think the “Apartheid state” accusation refers to the occupied territories, and the fact that the people living there are not afforded the rights of Israeli citizenship, while still being under Israeli control
Maybe Apartheid state is not the right term, but there are clearly two classes of population: Israelis, and people living under Israeli military control without being Israeli
- truth_ 5y ago> but there are clearly two classes of population: Israelis, and people living under Israeli military control without being Israeli Any trustable source to back this up?
- namdnay 5y agoSources on what? The existence of occupied territories? Or the fact that the occupied population can’t vote in Israeli elections?
- proshno 5y agoHere is one for you: https://www.btselem.org/publications/fulltext/202101_this_is_apartheid https://www.btselem.org/publications/fulltext/202101_this_is... FYI, this is from B'Tselem, an Israeli human rights organization.
- ireallydontcar3 5y agoThe gaslighting is a bit ridiculous. The occupation in places like Gaza isn’t a secret. Your posts are comical.
- ridiculous_leke 5y agoIsn't Gaza ruled by Hamas?
- proshno 5y agoLOL…do you even know who created Hamas and why? Please take a look at this WSJ article on the history: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB123275572295011847 https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB123275572295011847 The gist is Israel never wanted to have two-state solution. When PLO agreed to this solution, Israel wanted bolster instability among Palestinians, and that’s why Hamas is here. It’s basically serving Israeli purpose.
