Israel is "occupying" land that no other country has ever maintained sovereignty over, and therefore, the "occupation" is not illegal under international law. Palestine has never existed as a nation, therefore, Israel cannot occupy it.If the territory is part of Israel, then Israel's refusal to grant equal citizenship to its inhabitants proves my claim re: apartheid. Your claims about the purpose of the "wall" are also false. The security fence was not built so that Israel could annex land in the West Bank. Doesn't matter whether it was built to do that or not. It physically does. Part of the West Bank is on Israel's side of the wall, thus becoming attached to Israel. Racism is not the same as segregation. Israel can be a racist state while not being an apartheid state. No, but if Palestine isn't a country and Israel's claim on those territories is legitimate, then their failure to grant equal rights to residents of Gaza and the West Bank is apartheid. No country would accept the status quo that Israel faces where it gives supplies meant for housing to a terrorist entity that then turns them into weaponry. No country would accept the status quo where a foreign power (or worse yet, their own government) denies them access to essential supplies on the grounds that preventing them from building houses is required to prevent terrorism. You have demonstrated for weeks now that you don't give a shit about the nuances of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict... You've demonstrated you don't have a clue about said nuances. ...but rather, you've already made up your mind about who is responsible, who is at fault, and could care less about the facts on the ground. Says the person who vehemently denies any wrongdoing on Israel's part. |
