The illegal settlements Isreal has built on Palistinian lands, and its effect (pics)

[DaveG]

I just don't like Zionists, Jews aren't bad people for being Jews, but Zionism is basically racism.

Isreal in direct violation of the Genevoa Convention:



The settelments Isreal has built on strategic hilltops, this is ON Palistinian land:



Holding all areas with water:



The lands controlled around the settlemetns, to provide a "buffer":



The roads that carve up Palistine, making a 15 min drive into a 3 hour one. That is of course if they let you through the checkpoints, soldiers randomly deny Palistinians access to their homes, holy-sites, and everyday locations they need to access to live their lives:


This is a colonial war. Isreal is building these colonies deeper and deeper into Palistine, filling them with radical Isrealis who are constantly clashing (the Isrealis are almost always responsible for the clashes) with the Palistinians.

They acquire the land by not allowing Palistinians to build anything, no matter what the reason. BBC itself has stated that it is impossible for a Palistinian to get a permit to build anything. This leaves the Palistinians with no choice but to build illegally. After this is done, Isreal comes in and bulldozes illegal buildings, and claims the land for the government.

Your bathroom burned down? Too bad, can't build a new one. New baby? Sorry, can't build a room for him. Isreali bulldozer destoryed your living room? Don't touch it or we will bulldoze the whole house and claim it as our land.

And yet the Arabs are monsters for fighting against this...

So you're intelligent, but Noam Chomsky is an idiot?

[A Cluster of Pixels]

Those people really piss me off.

Wrong.

Israel has a Per capita income is 23,416, which is less than the UK and also lower than Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Israel does not indeed have the highest living standard in the Middle East, though it does have the highest HDI rating


Yes and no, Turkey is also a Liberal democracy, and an officially secular one, unlike the self declared Jewish state of Israel. Israel also abuses the rights of the Palestinian people in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, even in peacetime, so there is much to say perhaps that Turkey is the only real Liberal democracy.

Besides, just because its a Liberal democracy does not mean Israel deserves US support, since it's of little interest to be visibly tied to a nation which everyone outside the US looks at as a controversial nation (In the case of Western Europe and other Non-Muslim countries) or with hatred (In the case of some Islamic countries.).

Dear Zionists,

[MrBeastMan]

So the basic arguement, as always, from these terrorism support fuckwads is "Boo America bad, Israel bad, we are owed something, now we blow shit up til we own the world!!!!"

[Haunted]

fuck Arabs (EDIT: the muslim ones)

[Kaione]

It is quite amusing to see people debate of who "contributes" more to the world. As if contributing something is somehow important or good in the first place.


Even if all of the Arab and Islamic world had a GDP of $0 or Euros and lived in caves, Arabs and Muslims even at that point would actually be contributing MORE to the world than Israel. At least Arabs have their natural resources to give away WHILE living in shacks and caves. Israel, on the other hand, only exports and imports hatred, and military equipment of course.

People don't realize that most of the world does not think or behave like Israel or the US. Citing evidence of what Israel and Israeli companies have created/made is no evidence why Israel is more qualified or deserving to exist, because those statistics fall on deaf ears in the Arab world.

To someone who doesn't care about economic growth, citing economic achievements to justify your argument makes no sense at all.

yeah because the other countries weren't supplied by a cold war superpower
