If Belgium kicked out all the French people and bombed them for half a century, then they'd have a valid National Security reason to only allow Flemish integration, because it's too risky to let people back in your country once you've made them hate you.

DarkCrawler posted:Was that the topic of discussion? You don't get to claim a valid jus sanguinis policy if some natives are excluded from the policy and from the state's nationality law. It's simple as that. Belgium can't wake up tomorrow and say that only Flemish are Belgian nationals and natives and only Flemish can immigrate. Russia does that in favor of Russians, to the detriment of Germans originating in Russia. See how Greece regards Turkish refugees from Greece.

There were 2 million ethnic Germans in Russia in 1989. I'll let you read from the year if they wanted to leave. I don't think those who moved lost their Russian citizenship. I don't think citing ethnic cleansings and forced assimilations works well for your point, but the refugee situation between Turkey and Greece was settled by treaty in 1923...and remaining Turks are Greek nationals as well as citizens. And are half a percent of the population. DarkCrawler fucked around with this message at 12:21 on Apr 9, 2015 |

I don't think Lithuania would let in an Indian tribe which decided its ancient forefathers must have been Lithuanian because evangelical Christian missionaries told them so last century. The fact is that the Law of Return is not a regular immigration law, since any non-Arab (remember, rabbinical courts can choose to deny the validity of a conversion, or even revoke a conversion after the fact) can become eligible by going through a conversion ceremony or partnering with a right-wing organization that has government connections. The purpose of the Law of Return in the last few decades has been to stack the demographics, constantly importing more Jews from abroad to ensure that th Arabs remain a minority. http://www.freeman.org/m_online/oct01/freund.htm quote:The Jerusalem Post September 12, 2001 http://www.haaretz.com/news/national/1.643020 quote:How a former Netanyahu aide is boosting Israel's Jewish majority, one 'lost tribe' at a time

Not hard to see why:quote:As the Jewish state, Israel’s Jewish essence must be felt in every single aspect of Israeli life. The Talmud is the divine law of the Jewish people, so it’s essential that it also be the law of Israel – the Jewish state. Regardless of one’s feelings about Netanyahu, his commitment to following Talmudic law and cementing Israel’s Jewish status is truly something to be admired.

That article is pretty hilarious. "The Talmud makes it very clear that all land belongs to Jews, and that Jews may seize any land that they so desire. Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 348: “All property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which, consequently, is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples.” " "If goyim cannot serve Jews, then they should be exterminated. We allow Americans, Australians, Canadians, and Europeans to exist because they serve Jews and they serve Israel – and, when they get out of line, we attack them, like we did to the Americans when we sunk their USS Liberty. " "This is precisely why, when African baboons come to Israel, they are sterilized, shoved into crude containment facilities, and eventually shipped off to gentile nations like Sweden, Canada, and Australia – as they should be. Their inferior monkey genes are not wanted anywhere in Israel, as they spread nothing but crime, destruction, ignorance, and misery." "We need to take immense pleasure in raping, torturing, and murdering “Palestinians.” We need to boil “Palestinians” alive in boiling human feces. We need to take “Palestinian” babies and stomp them to death in front of their parents. We need to cut open pregnant “Palestinian” women, put their fetuses on pikes, and leave the fetus-pikes all over “Palestinian” neighbourhoods. We need to anally rape “Palestinian” women with butcher knives in broad daylight. " " The Talmud says (Coschen hamischpat 425 Hagah 425. 5): “It is the law to kill anyone who denies the Torah. The Christians belong to the denying ones of the Torah.” Under Talmudic law, Jews are permitted – and, in fact, encouraged – to kill Christians, Muslims, and anyone else who denies the Torah." "I am sick of hearing “Palestinians” complain about “oppression” and “genocide,” even though Israel has never once come anywhere close to giving these Arab cockroaches the real genocide that they so richly deserve." This is, like, Onion-level.

My Imaginary GF posted:In an environment where all your neighbors regularly chant "Death to Israel," what do you expect? Eternal moderation from Israelis as all around call for their genocide? Yes. Unless Israel is willing to give up its preferred status to those neighbors with the United States. You might as well complain why Obama won't let go of Netanyahu's electioneering about Arabs voting in droves when there are Arab regimes supported by America that have no voting at all (assuming you haven't already). If Israel wants to beat its chest about being a Western democracy in the Middle East worthy of being defended against its neighbors then it will most likely be held to the standards of a Western democracy, and that means moderating genocidal outbursts - especially if you're actually in a position to carry out such a thing, which pretty much none of Israel's neighbours are. Incoming pivot to claiming that Iran will be thanks to Obama's nuclear deal, as though Iran's single greatest desire is to lob one half-functioning nuke at Israel before getting flattened. Is there any actual news? A friend of mine said he's seen rumblings that something regarding the two-state solution or Palestinian statehood might get floated as a test balloon at the UN soon, to see if the US might budge a little, but I haven't seen anything concrete myself.

I love this kind of creepy/disingenuous stuff because it is exactly the mirror of right-wing pro-settler assholes who won't just rant about Palestinians being amalekites or vermin, but who will insist with the same sort of crocodile tears that they're just too dangerous to have a state. Same destination as the overt racists, they just like to delude themselves into thinking they've taken a moral high ground.

The Insect Court posted:Your point being that the Zionist entity is a monstrous apartheid regime because it's a multi-ethnic democracy, unlike the states you approvingly describe as racially pure? While I disagree with DarkCrawler that there's some fundamental difference between what Israel does with regard to its "right to return" and what a bunch of other countries do, I would argue that having a very large portion of your population be an ethnicity that isn't granted a right to return definitely makes what they're doing worse. Like, it's definitely bad if, say, Greece doesn't let non-ethnically Greek people with a family history of living in Greece immigrate into their country (while letting ethnic Greeks do so), but it causes far less harm and effects far fewer people because the overwhelming majority of the country is still ethnically Greek. They can at least have the excuse of "overlooking" their more minor populations (not that it's a legitimate one). In Israel, on the other hand, such a large portion of their population isn't ethnically Jewish that it's far more egregious when they decide to limit their immigration to just ethnic Jews*. The reason why you come off as such a shithead in this thread is that you always, without exception, either 1. argue about some dumb semantic issue (and probably one that has only been made by one poster, rather than some "thread consensus") or 2. make snide comments implying that a majority of the "pro-Palestinian" (for lack of a better term) posters are antisemitic because of the 1 or 2 posters who have said anything that could remotely be construed as antisemitic, even though neither of those posters has even posted in a really long time. Honestly, even MyImaginaryGF is better than you; he may usually argue in bad faith, but at least he'll respond to most people. It just comes off as really bizarre from the perspective of someone who follows, but doesn't post very frequently in this thread. Like, you seem to genuinely believe that an avowed antisemite is hiding behind the veneer of every reasonable poster in this thread, just waiting to be exposed and reveal their true colors. While I'll acknowledge that some D&D posters will do a similar thing with respect to calling people racist (that is, insisting they are despite them denying it), the difference is that in most of those cases the person in question has at least said or done something that either 1. is kinda racist or 2. is actively harmful to minorities and racist in effect as a result. In stark contrast, hardly any (with the 1 or 2 exceptions I mentioned before) of the people in this thread ever say anything remotely antisemitic, and Israel is not in a position where it needs to be defended or is currently being harmed by the status quo. While it would be tacky in any situation, the fact that this is a serious issue where Israel has literally killed thousands and commits various other human rights abuses against millions more makes it into more of a "wow you're kind of a bad person" thing. The fact that a bunch of antisemitic people exist who *do* choose to focus on the crimes of Israel due to their bigotry doesn't change the fact that 1. there is no reason to think the people in this thread are like that and 2. Israel is still committing those terrible crimes. * It's even worse when you consider the fact that some random Palestianian trying to immigrate into Israel probably has an even more legitimate connection with the region than some random American or European Ashkenazi Jew.
