I see Zionists as todays Nazis, what is the deliberate ethnic cleansing going on in Palestine but Naziism?
It's oppression, but it is not apartheid (quite), and is not Nazism or Facism. Nor is it ethnic cleansing.
I don't think you should whitewash it, but I think it needs to be dealt with objectively, and with less labeling.
It is Apartheid.
Russell Tribunal Finds Israel Guilty Of Apartheid
"IMEMC - The Russell Tribunal on Palestine has ruled that Israel is guilty of Apartheid and Prosecution crimes, as its panel of jurists ruled that the Israeli actions against the Palestinians breach the prohibition of apartheid under International Law.
The tribunal held extensive talks for two days, listened to testimonies from expert witnesses, and unanimously determined that that the Israeli violations are defined under international law as apartheid, stating that “Israel subjects the Palestinians to institutionalized regime of domination, mounting to apartheid”."
