And it's clear in context that your argument is incoherent. The largest plurality party forming the coalition is the norm in the Knesset. That not happening in 2009 led to significant consequences.

All I'm seeing on a Rwanda referendum is an amendment that specifies the Tutsi's were the victims? Kagame is a piece of poo poo in his own way, but the standard writing of the genocide reflects better on him than it does a lot of people.

Barak elaborates a little here. His issue is with referring to it as the Tutsi genocide when thousands of Hutu resistors were killed as well. He has a point, but the way he's framing his arguments you'd think they were making the Hutu's out to be the victims or denying it happened or something. https://twitter.com/BarakRavid/status/957748460429725698?ref_src=twcamp%5Ecopy%7Ctwsrc%5Eandroid%7Ctwgr%5Ecopy%7Ctwcon%5E7090%7Ctwterm%5E1

Randomly stumbled on this article today. I wonder if this guy's book is any good. Are there other books that might have details on how the occupation works at a nuts and bolts level, and how it copes with resistance and dissent? https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium.MAGAZINE-for-top-israeli-human-rights-lawyer-winning-is-a-double-edged-sword-1.5769069 quote:

Just to emphasize a particular point above - there are at least twice as many asylum seekers from the former Soviet Union in Israel as there are African refugees. And the vast majority of FSU clients I've talked to were fairly frank about the fact that they could go back home at any time without fearing for their safety. For some reason, these "infiltrators" do not constitute a major national emergency.

And there are other articles stating that Israel is terrified by the situation in Gaza and considering direct aid, although both could well be true.Xander77 posted:Just to emphasize a particular point above - there are at least twice as many asylum seekers from the former Soviet Union in Israel as there are African refugees.

I'm of course 100% opposed to the African deportations, but Shas unironically would love to deport all of those European refugees.

Kanine posted:hey question, is zionism actually able to be divorced from the racist settler apartheid state that israel is or is there no meaningful distinction between zionism and "supporting the israeli governments ethnic cleansing" Erm. Depends how you define zionism? It's real easy to conceive of even a Jewish-centric state that, you know, allows Palestine to literally exist, never mind various currently-implausible ideas where Israel A) doesn't treat it's non-Jewish citizens as second-class and B) continues to be a haven for Jews in their notional historic homeland. tldr: yes Friendly Factory posted:Of course there's a distinction. Zionism was just a response to a long (long, long) period of antisemitism in Europe. Whether or not you think a two-state solution is unfeasible in the present, it was certainly possible before the Palestinian Civil War to have a Jewish state and a Palestinian one side-by-side. A number of factors prevented this from happening, from extremist groups to the ineffectual exit and lack of any kind of real plan by the British. Zionism as it exists now is just being misrepresented by an immoral government in Israel. I don't even feel as if Zionism directly contradicts a moral one-state solution, so long as adequate protections for Jewish populations are codified into law. Of course, they'd have to do the same for Palestinians, but you should see what I'm saying.

In a vacuum it’s possible, in that if you had a state of sufficient size, in uncontested land, that consisted ethnically and religiously only of Jewish people, you could have an ethical Jewish safe haven state. Once you introduce complications, that kinda goes out the window. You can’t really have a multiethnic/multireligious state that explicitly favors a particular ethnicity and religion without implicitly endorsing the violent sustaining of that privilege. If your definition of Zionism doesn’t require a specifically Jewish state it’s also possible, I suppose.

Friendly Factory posted:Yes? Zionism seeks a state of safety for the Jewish nation. It doesn't have to be a specifically Jewish-only state. heck i'd argue that the United States approaches being a Zionist state (even in the Age of Trump), it's just that a lot of Jews internationally got a little nervous in the late 30s and entire 40s in particular if zionism were disconnected from geography, anyway, which for the purposes of this discussion it can't, in any reasonably recent historical sense it's centered around a SPECIFIC Jewish homeland edit: that one Soviet oblast was absolutely 100% a zionist project though

Preen Dog posted:You could buy some muffins at the supermarket and some rear end in a top hat might accost you, claiming that he had "dibs" on them. Because he saw them first, touched them first. Put them in his basket and then took them out, and then later decided that he wanted them, but you had already purchased them. Isn't it nice that reality disregards this moral nonsense? It seems confusing. There is nothing funny about stealing a meal from Neil McBeal the Navy Seal.
