You think apartheid and genocide are as serious as a hangnail?There is not one thing that you don't consider a war crime (except if it's Hamas/Palestinians of course. In your mind, even Oct. 7 was not a war crime LOL).
frank's war crime:

That is for whomever is contemplating an action to decide for themselves. How much risk are they willing to take?So what risk profile is sufficient to stop?
No. I NEVER said anything about no risk. That's virtually impossible. Just about everything we do in this world comes with some riskBut you said that Hamas surrendering isn't enough to stop, the risk has to be zero, didn't you?
Actually, I was trying to say that a Hamas surrender (and returning the hostages) IS enough to stop the current fighting.I completely agree Hamas should surrender, but if Hamas surrendering isn't sufficient reason to stop, how does that save Palestinian lives?
OK.
This sounds like a different requirement than you were arguing earlier.
This is "Hamas surrenders and Israel stops bombing".
Which is a good start./QUOTE]
Apologies if my statements weren't phrased properly.
The last part referred to "as long as Hamas keeps fighting instead of surrendering".It doesn't really answer any of the long term issues (i.e. - what happens next) but at least it isn't "Israel bombs until it feels like stopping".
The long term is much more complicated. That's been at the crux of every Israeli/Arab/Palestinian/Hamas/PLO negotiation. Nobody's figured it out yet, and I won't pretend to be smarter or more qualified than they. I think that stopping the current killing is, as you say, a good start. Whenever it happens it would, or should, turn down the dial greatly on the tensions we are now witnessing. And the sooner the better. Which, again, is the reason I keep calling for a Hamas surrender. There is no faster solution.
As Andy Dufresne said to the warden in Shawshank Redemption, "How can you be so obtuse?"You think apartheid and genocide are as serious as a hangnail?
For public consumption.Israel is killing as many Palestinians as they think they can get away with.
Even now they have pushed Biden as far as they can.
If they killed more even Biden would abandon them.
And Israel is Hamas' cancer eating away at them bit by bit, relentlessly.Hamas is still there.
And even though you know that nobody is listening to you, you keep yelling wolf. Sad and pathetic.Israel and zionism now means genocide.
The world hates zionists.
And next week Israel goes on trial for genocide.
After that they get banned from the UN and sanctions start.
It'll be the end of zionism.
Surrender by Hamas is faster. No negotiations required.So you think Hamas has been eliminated?
Then call for a ceasefire.
Yet their population continues to grow. The only thing that impedes it is when they keep starting wars.Yes, and the only ones fighting for survival are the Palestinians.
It has everything to do with citizenship. I posted the history of apartheid in S. Africa. Black and brown citizens were denied some of the rights that white citizens had and S. Africa called that policy apartheid. The international community can come up with a different name for the practice of not bestowing full rights to foreigners.Unfortunately, for you, Apartheid has nothing to do with citizenship.
But the S. Africans took away the blacks' right to vote. The ability, or lack thereof, is inextricably linked to the policy of apartheid. Actually it's probably the most important right that got taken away.Apartheid has nothing to do with just voting rights.
Once again, a crucial point I am making, which you claim is irrelevant and ignore, is because you know I have displayed your biased bullshit and you have no counter argument.So there is no reason to give you a list of countries that give voting rights to non-citizens, as that is irrelevant.
As mentioned the goalposts were moved strictly for the purposes of demonizing Israel. Call it something else, but it is not apartheid as defined by the S. African governments of that time. Their policy had nothing to with foreigners.And it also has nothing to do with citizenship per international law.
How you define apartheid is an attempt to indict Israel and is irrelevant. All the entities you mentioned have no credibility when discussing Israel. They have as much neutrality as you, which is zilch. You just keep pointing out how much anti-Semitism there is in the world.How you and a few other Zionists and racists, define Apartheid, in an attempt to absolve Israel, is irrelevant. It is you vs The UN, Amnesty, The African National Congress and many other human rights organizations. Most importantly, it is your definition vs international law. Guess who has more credibility?

You couldn't give a list even if you tried, because there is no such list. Not one country confers a vote, or full rights (voting was just one example of that) to non-citizens/foreigners. By admitting that there is not one other country in the world that confers full rights of citizens to non-citizens, yet you expect Israel to, proves that you have a hypocritical set of standards. To you, Israel must do things that you do not ask of other countries. More exposed hypocrisy and prejudice for you to chew on.

Surrender by Israel would be even better. Solving the Gaza, West Bank and Lebanon problems in an instant. Don’t you agree sad Shack?Surrender by Hamas is faster. No negotiations required.
Kauty, I posted probably 40 different interviews and examples with survivors or eye witnesses of 7 October in that other thread.Then he should have no issues debating it, because he has indisputable proof. But the thing is there is no proof out there, and any subsequent cross questioning of this nonsensical narrative, that no one believes, will not stand up to scrutiny and Eylon will be left red-faced. Just as he was on fucking Piers Morgan, of all places, when Piers asked him "How many of the dead are Hamas?", in response to Eylon saying, the majority of the dead in Gaza were Hamas. Eylon's response? "Many".
Seriously, What a joke you are!Apartheid has nothing to do with just voting rights. So there is no reason to give you a list of countries that give voting rights to non-citizens, as that is irrelevant.
