Israel's "Right to Exist"?

[Roudy]

Israel leads the World in agricultural development, they lead the world recycled water, they lead the world in Stem cell research, they lead the world in medical research, and they lead the world in citrus exports.....Why would we trade all that for a bunch of terrorist who want to lead the world in killing their young? Their own young at that. Its always the kids who go on tv then blow themselves up...I'll take a nation that's actually doing something good for the world, instead of evil....

AND WITH THAT I'M DONE...
ISRAEL FOREVER

Israel also leads the world in fascism.

Muslims and Palestinians do. The facist next door Assad has killed over 17,000 of his own people, and that was just a warmup so far. Wait till he gets the poison gas out.

 

[Roudy]

The Keren Kayemet land lease thing was designed to PUT JEWS TO WORK in occupations with which they had no real prior exerperience----to wit FARMING-----and to avoid the exploitation of "CHEAP ARAB LABOR" It precedes the establishment of the state of Israel ------and has absolutely nothing to do with apartheid At the time it was designed---it was something which would have been called very "LEFTIST" The concept was to NOT CREATE THE ARAB POPULATION into that which the Ottomans had created them----essentially SERFS I find it very interesting that what was once a very PROGRESSIVE idea suddenly became APARTHEID To that point in history------since jews had been restricted from owning property in under christian and muslim oppression-----they simply were not farmers ----did not know how to be farmers and actually had developed, to some extent, an aversion to that kind of work Once they BOUGHT land-----they would be tempted to hire CHEAP LABOR (to wit---arabs)

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

.....then it's groin boy.

 

[Roudy]

Better work on that "bat"-stroke, drivel. The Jewish state is swirling the same racist drain as white South Africa.

All-predictable drivel-rage, fusillades of drivel in all directions, no argument so far. We win again, of course.

Drivel, huh?

Here's one of the typical zionist land ownership rules at the time...

Keren Kayemet draft lease: Employment of Jewish labour only

"... The lessee undertakes to execute all works connected with the cultivation of the holding only with Jewish labour. Failure to comply with this duty by the employment of non-Jewish labour shall render the lessee liable to the payment of compensation ..."

"The lease also provides that the holding shall never be held by any but a Jew ..."​

Worked by "only a jew" and owned by "only a jew", is pretty fuckin' apartheid to me.

Drivel, my ass!

Fake outrage. Musims are the biggest ******* racists and intolerants on the face of this planet today.

They are also among the world leaders in spying on their prime benefactor:

"'The Israeli government is actively engaged in military and industrial espionage in the United States.' That was the conclusion of a Pentagon administrative judge in 2006. One very good reason why Israel should not receive billions of dollars in military assistance annually is its espionage against the United States.

"Israel, a Socialist country where government and business work hand in hand, has obtained significant advantage by systematically stealing American technology with both military and civilian applications."

Nope. Keep up, it's actually the opposite. More and more people and nations are realizing the animals Israel is up against. Let's not forget that not too long ago, Isrsel was asked to "negotiate" with that genocidal mass murderer Assad who has now murdered over 17,000 fellow Syrians to save his own skin. It's easy for others to ask Israel to sit across the table from these beasts, another thing when you realize what you're really asking of them.

Israel had no trouble negotiating with the White beasts in South Africa...

"The system preserving this apartheid is more ruthless than that seen in South Africa, where the black were a labor force and could therefore also make a living. It is equipped with the lie of being 'temporary...'"

"Abba Eban captured the allegation by coining a phrase repeated by the doves of all parties, who never really went to battle over Israel's future and allowed the 'settlement project' to spread. After all, occupation makes Israelis richer. Why oppose it?"

Does the occupation make Israelis richer?
Of course it does.
That's why you support it.

Was South Africa an enemey of Israel, asshole? No, so other than try to vomit more anti semetic garbage you have nothing else to respond with then.

Was South Africa an enemy of humanity, Rougey?
Do you personally support apartheid?
Of course you do; not unlike every other rancid, racist reprobate.
Maybe you should run for the Knesset?

an important part of the story that Georgie CHOOSES to leave out is that at the time the keren kayemet land lease law was developed-- Shariah law denied jews the right to own property and was law---in many "muslim lands" in which jews lived. He also leaves out the fact that such laws STILL EXIST UNDER THE FILTH OF JIHADIST LAW which he clearly supports. My husband is part of a community of jews that lived in a land WHICH WAS EVENTUALLY invaded by arabs for more tha 2500 years. Under muslim rule jews could not own land and those LAWS ARE STILL IN FORCE in that land -----a reality which renders Georgie HAPPY AS A CLAM In fact the real origin of hostilities in Palestine date back to the early 1800s----when the OTTOMANS eased the law regarding jewish ownership of land IN PALESTINE--------the arab muslims were incensed to the point of increased throat slitting of jewish infants to the delight of georgie. Of course all decent people would like to see full rights for ALL PEOPLE------jihadists consider the concept of "full rights" a muslim right EXCLUSIVELY. Anything less drives them and georgie to utter distraction

"Two recent Israeli High Court rulings follow a disturbing trend. On January 11, divided justices ruled 6 - 5 for Israel's Citizenship and Entry into Israel Law.

"It denies citizenship rights to Palestinians with Israeli spouses. Enacted in 2003 as temporary legislation, it was extended twice after its initial expiration date.

"The law empowers the interior minister to grant citizenship only if affected Palestinians identify strongly and cooperate with Israel. They must also contribute to national security. As a result, few qualify.

"In addition, it limits potential eligibility to Palestinian husbands 36 or older and Palestinian wives at least 26.

"A Qara village attorney called the decision a 'declaration of war on Israeli Arabs.' A mixed couple said the decision 'will lead to the expulsion of thousands of families from the country.'

"The Palestinian wife of another mixed couple got temporary permit permission to live with her husband in Acre without legal rights extended Israeli citizens. Her husband, a Haifa University doctoral candidate, wasn't surprised by the ruling, saying:

"'The decision is proof that one shouldn't have faith in the Israeli judicial system. It is clear that the Supreme Court is influenced by the wave of fascism and racism sweeping Israel, and the judges weren't expected to act any other way.'"

Waves of fascism and racism that will swamp the Jewish state unless Jews living there decide if they want to exist in a democratic state or a Jewish one; it's not too different from what we're facing in the US; do we want to live in a democracy or a plutocracy?

What's your choice?

Racist Israeli Supreme Court Decisions

Israel is like heaven compared to any Muslim shithole, including the Palestinians. Remember over 20% of Israelis are Arab Israelis, and the worlds major faiths including Christianity and Bahaiism have their holiest sites there, and feel totally comfortable and grateful that Israelis are in charge of the place. If you want institutionalized hatred and intolerance, check any Muslim shithole.

Johannes Martarsian was walking in the Old City in May 2008 when an young ultra-Orthodox Jew spat at him. Maratersian punched the spitter in the face, making him bleed, and was charged for assault. But Judge Dov Pollock, who unexpectedly annulled the indictment, wrote in his verdict that "putting the defendant on trial for a single blow at a man who spat at his face, after suffering the degradation of being spat on for years while walking around in his church robes is a fundamental contravention of the principles of justice and decency."

"When Narek Garabedian came to Israel to study in the Armenian Seminary in Jerusalem half a year ago, he did not expect the insults, curses and spitting he would be subjected to daily by ultra-Orthodox Jews in the streets of the Old City.

"'When I see an ultra-Orthodox man coming toward me in the street, I always ask myself if he will spit at me,' says Narek, a Canadian Armenian, this week. About a month ago, on his way to buy groceries in the Old City, two ultra-Orthodox men spat at him. The spittle did not fall at his feet but on his person. Narek, a former football player, decided this time not to turn the other cheek.

"'I was very angry. I pushed them both to the wall and asked, "why are you doing this?" They were frightened and said "we're sorry, we're sorry," so I let them go. But it isn't always like that. Sometimes the spitter attacks you back,' he says."

[irosie91]

My hubby was a child in Jerusalem before 1948----at one point being treated for a crippling illness with lots of other kids-------he said all the kids were afraid to go near the armenian church because the priests abused them , The crippled kids did not stand a chance He did not even know what the religion of those priests was-----he described them to me-----long black robes--big hats and beards-----out of chruch ---he knew it was a church because of the big cross and the priests who seem to like to slaughter chickens on saturday and chase crippled kids It seems to me that the relationship between jews and armenian priests in Jerusalem has not been good for a long time. I am not advocating spitting-- but would make a case for SEPARATION. Some hatreds are simply INHERITED as a family legacy----I believe that the "ultra orthodox" (who btw are generally naturei karta----ie the ones who do not recognize Israel as a state) are more likely to carry their FAMILY HATRED LEGACY than other people The are an isolated people. I do not believe that the NATUREI KARTA will last much longer-----lots of them leave that group. They do have a high birth rate------but I still do not believe that as a group they will survive-----too backward

Why is it that Zionists always compare Israel to Muslim Countries in the ME. Are they afraid to compare them to other more civilized countries then they are because they know if they did they would come off looking like idiots. Come on, Zionists if you want to play in the bigs compare them to others in the majors like Canada, New Zealand, The US, or Ireland. Maybe even compare them to South Africa, no wait you wouldn't want to do that as SA is no longer Apartheid and you still are.

It became APARTHEID when one-third of the citizens of Mandate Palestine imposed a Jewish state by force of arms on their neighbors in 1948:

"After Israel's establishment in 1948, there was a debate concerning the future of the JNF(keren Kayemet).

"Initially the government wanted to dismantle it, but after the United Nations General Assembly passed Resolution 194 calling for Arab refugees to be allowed back into their homes, the JNF was seen as a mechanism by which land which was previously owned by Arabs could be legally purchased by Jews.[citation needed]

"Accordingly, the government began to sell these 'absentee' lands to the JNF..."

"Over the years questions about the legitimacy of these transactions have been raised but Israeli legislation has generally supported the JNF's land claims.[16][17][18] A later study appeared to show that the state had received a full price from the JNF for these 'absentee' lands..."

"After concentrating on the centre and northern part of the young state, the JNF-KKL started supporting Jewish settlements around the Negev border from around 1965. After the Six-Day War in 1967, the JNF-KKL started work in the newly occupied Palestinian territories as well."

The reason that I frequently come back to that question is because you and other Zionists never seem to have an answer to it except to compare them to the worst of the worst over and over again. It is like someone saying I am less guilty because I only killed 15 and the other person killed 16. Wait that doesn't work because Israel always kills more people then the palestinians do. Regardless why can't, maybe won't is better, you answer the question . Is it possible that you are ashamed of Israel.

[irosie91]

it is very reasonable to COMPARE Israel with the sorrounding arab countries------for TWO REASONS Israel exists in the enviornment of arab countries and more than half of the population has a family legacy in arab countries. The ARAB CULTURE, is therefore, very important in israel and the experience of jews in arab countries is important. I am always impressed with pro jihadists who justify the actions of arab terrorists based on their "suffering" at the hands of jews------yet none of the same people consider the experience jews carry as a family heritage having lived in muslim countries----besides, of course, the ongoing constant threat of arab terrorism. I can assure you idiots-----the sense of danger that jews of european background in Israel have is NOTHING compared to the sense of danger that jews of north african background have. The first question I would ask about an israeli soldier who is accused of being trigger happy------"where were his parents born"? Anyone here consider from whence came the assassin of Rabin? anyone know where his parents were from? For the record----Yigal Amir decided that RABIN TRUSTED THE ARABS TOO MUCH OUT OF SHEER IGNORANCE AND WAS, THEREFORE. A GREAT DANGER TO ISRAEL. I see no reason to imagine that a history of LIVING IN AN ARAB COUNTRY would not have an effect on a person to the extent that he might make COMPARISONS and wonder why he is supposed to be SO MUCH NICER especially when he is holding a gun and the other side is lobbing rockets at his head

Eh? The worst of the worst are Israel's enemies, the same people you defend. Number of causalities doesn't make a side wrong or right. Need I remind you that the US lost 365,000 lives as opposed to Nazi Germany's 9 million? And compared to Western countries I think Israel has actually been kind to the animals. No sane country would sit there like Israel does, and take thousands of rockets being shot at it without dropping the big one, or carpet bombing it into oblivion.

there is no EXISTENCE in the absence of COMPARISON-----I see no reason to NOT compare two groups in conflict with each other The US dropped a nuclear bomb on the japanese not because of US BARBARITY-----but because the US was fighting an extremely and fevently barbaric enemy and was desperate to stop them When the Israeli land trust was first established----the people who established it knew that MUSLIMS BELIEVE THAT JEWS HAVE NO RIGHT TO OWN LAND ---its a law of their religion-----so the people who established the land trust took precaustions to keep the land in "jewish hands" For those who do not know----there is actually an ISLAMIC LAW that once a muslim owns any land at all------that land is MUSLIM LAND FOREVER For those who do not know-----there are people in the US and in the UK who believe that once a mosque is built on a piece of land----THAT LAND IS MUSLIM LAND FOREVER It gets worse-----If a muslim big shot happens to be killed doing JIHAD----the place he dies is supposed to be MUSLIM LAND forever too.----------make sure that if a muslim had a heart attack in your house----you get him out before he is dead Remember when muslims occupied a CHURCH in Israel? the priests were very worried that one of them would get killed and the church would be turned into a MUSLIM SHRINE

[georgephillip]

there is no question that the early zionists were trying to create a country which would be a refuge for jews-----a refuge from both christian and muslim oppression. There is no question that they envisioned a land populated by jews If christian and muslim oppression had not existed-----there would probably still be an Israel----since the area had been considered "holy" to jews for more than 3000 years------and the religion does actually teach that it is far better to live there than anywhere else ------the part that would not have happened would have been the FIGHT to get that land. Jews would have been there continuously and no one else would have an interest in it. The only reason muslims want it is because they feel a need to control the entire Middle east-----Islam is a very imperialistic ideology

How many "strategic attacks" have Muslim governments launched against civilian infrastructure on the opposite side of the globe from their homeland?

"Case in point. Article 54 of the Geneva Conventions clearly states that destroying or rendering useless items essential to the survival of civilian populations is illegal under international law and a war crime.

"Hard then to explain the 1991 US bombing of electrical grids that powered 1,410 water-treatment plants for Iraq's 22 million people. An excerpt from a 1998 US Air Force document, entitled 'Strategic Attack,' chillingly explains: 'The electrical attacks proved extremely effective ... The loss of electricity shut down the capital's water treatment plants and led to a public health crisis from raw sewage dumped in the Tigris River.'

"A second US Defense Intelligence Agency document, 1991's 'Iraq Water Treatment Vulnerabilities,' predicted how sanctions would then be used to prevent Iraq from getting the equipment and chemicals necessary for water purification, which would result in 'a shortage of pure drinking water for much of the population' leading to 'increased incidences, if not epidemics, of disease.'"

How many incidents "if not epidemics of disease...?
