"He faults David Ben-Gurion for failing to expel all Arab Israelis, and hints that it may be necessary to finish the job in the future."
And how is it, supposedly, israeli fault?"Even the great American democracy could not have been created without the annihilation of the Indians."
"Abu Lasheen, a young resident of Gaza diagnosed with Leukemia, was referred for emergency treatment in Israel on October 6, 2010. When requests to the Israeli Army for an entry permit went unanswered for several days, by way of B'tselem, the family contacted Physicians for Human Rights- Israel (PHR-Israel) for additional help."
You people with this moral equivalency are a joke....This is surley as bad as these wackos sending thier children out to blow themselves up right?
Yeah, they should hide in airplanes and tanks when they blow people up like the cowards in Israel.
Yep.... I guess these brave heros of yours sure prove themselves by brainwashing children and sending them out to blow themsleves up once they reach a certain age. You never see any of the wacko leaders wanting to meet thier 72 virgins do you?
"This racist system of water delivery, perfected by the South African apartheid regime, is controlled by the Israeli private water company Merkorot
Now Israel's Apartheid Wall proves how much rich Jews learned from their White mentors.
When the rest of the world turned against White South Africa, Israeli elites continued doing business with Apartheid.
Expose ?apartheid? charge's real agendaEssentially, apartheid was a totalitarian system of governance not unlike many of the regimes in the Arab world today. A white minority subjugated the overwhelmingly black population. It was ideologically driven and obsessed with racial superiority. The superior whites could not mingle with or even sit on a bench with the inferior black peoples. Even the education system was dumbed down for black people because they were deemed mentally inferior.
THERE IS absolutely nothing equivalent to this in the dispute between the Palestinians and Israel today. Within Israel itself, Arabs and Jews share the same shopping malls, benches, hospitals, theaters and, in many cases, suburbs. The educational institutions do not have a
deliberately dumbed down Arab curriculum and the privilege of voting is given to all. The Knesset has Arab members, and Jews, Arabs and Palestinians often work together at construction sites, businesses, hotels and elsewhere.
Most important of all is the fact that Israel is a democratic state. Not a perfect one, but it does have democratic institutions and is definitely not governed by a totalitarian minority! In the disputed territories, some 98 percent of the Palestinian Arab population now lives under the governance of their own Palestinian Authority, where they have the right to vote and change their leaders at least theoretically. True, Israel has adopted security measures that curtail their movement, but these have been necessitated by the conflict and are legitimate acts of self-defense, rather than acts of racial discrimination
This has absolutely nothing to do with apartheid. The State of Israel is a democracy which must answer to its citizens and thus has demonstrated a willingness to make painful concessions to secure a future of peace with its neighbors. In all cases, it alone has paid the real price by giving up land, which has then been used as a launching pad for further acts of terror.
Even in response to Israels most generous peace overtures during the Oslo era, the Palestinians have opted for violence. Waves of suicide bombers attacked Israelis from the porous boundaries surrounding the West Bank. Men, women and children were indiscriminately murdered in buses, restaurants, hotels and shopping malls. To protect herself,
Israel built a security barrier, which in some built-up areas consists of a wall. It was not built to segregate people or discriminate against them, but to protect its own citizens from attack. In this connection, the security fence has been highly successful though even Israelis admit it is regrettable.
"For the past nine years, the municipality has been trying to build a wastewater treatment plant to service the residents of Salfit town. The plant was initially supposed to be built on Salfit land 13kms from the town.
Lebanon: Seize Opportunity to End Discrimination Against Palestinians | Human Rights WatchLebanon has marginalized Palestinian refugees for too long," said Nadim Houry, Beirut director at Human Rights Watch. "Parliament should seize this opportunity to turn the page and end discrimination against Palestinians."
Lebanon's estimated 300,000 Palestinian refugees live in appalling social and economic conditions - most of them in crowded camps that lack essential infrastructure.
In 2001, Parliament passed a law prohibiting Palestinians from owning property. Lebanese law also restricts their ability to work in many areas.
2009, only 261 of more than 145,679 permits issued to non-Lebanese were for Palestinians. Civil society groups say many Palestinians choose not to apply because they cannot afford the fees and see no reason to pay a portion of their salary toward the National Social Security Fund, since Lebanese law bars Palestinians from receiving social security benefits. Many Lebanese employers are also unwilling to support Palestinian workers in getting a work permit.
Reforms to labor laws to end discrimination against Palestinian refugees in all professions are essential to improving their dire situation in Lebanon, Human Rights Watch said. According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, the organization set up to address the needs of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon and elsewhere, Palestinian refugees in Lebanon have the highest proportion of special hardship cases among those in any country in the region.
An extensive study by the Norwegian social welfare research organization Fafo found that just 15 percent of adult Palestinians have employment contracts. Forced to work illegally and without legal protection, Palestinians face severe discrimination in wages and hiring. Many employers pay them less than their Lebanese colleagues, or refuse to hire Palestinians.
"If there is a work shortage, they will hire you, [but] because you're Palestinian and it's not allowed, they will pay you half," one Palestinian told Human Rights Watch. As Palestinians, he added, "We are not asking for money, we are asking for the right to work, to live in dignity."
Labor Minister Boutros Harb told a gathering at the General Labor Federation that, "Palestinians must be granted their basic civil rights in Lebanon..."
In Jordan. It was an express transfer, like a boot in the butt, of course.Where were the Palestinians living before they were transferred to Lebanon?
An express transfer with pit stops at Sabra and Shatila?
"One theory is that the massacre (at Sabra and Shatila) took place, not because the Christian Phalangists wished to avenge their leader, but rather because the Israelis' wished to frighten the Palestinians into fleeing, possibly to Jordan.
"The theory behind such an idea was that the Palestinians from Lebanon would then be joined, voluntarily or otherwise, by those living in the West Bank, thus effecting a wholesale Jordanian 'transfer,' an option for solving the Palestinian 'problem' still favored today by many Israeli right-wingers."
More like a bullet in the brain than a boot in the butt, but it may be hard for right wingers to tell the difference.
Sabra and Shatila
Let's not deviate from the subject at hand, which is how those palestinian® bastards wound up in Lebanon in the first place. Well, my dear ignorami fans, let the great me introduce you to history. Palestinian® baboons started trashing Lebanon after they had been booted out of Jordan by the late king Hussein in the course of the famous Black September counter-terrorist military operation. The late king was extremely "displeased" with the aforementioned baboons, when they rampaged through the Dawson's Field airport, burned four passenger jets, engaged the jordanian army and, generally, were set to destabilize Jordan. Kudos to the king - he knew a palestinian® bastard when he saw one.An express transfer with pit stops at Sabra and Shatila?
