You can't see the difference between terrorism and other crime? So terrorism is the same as robbing a liquor store to you, provided the number of victims are the same? |

Maybe the Rashidun Caliphate or whatever you would consider its successor should take responsibility for conquering Israel and forcing its population to convert to Islam. Also the Roman Republic for conquering it before that.I thought you claimed that Jews lived there since forever? The point is that if ten people throw shit at a wall, the last one has to clean it up or prove that he's not responsible— especially if the last one is an adult who should have known better and the other nine are children. 2. And the West Bank is occupied today for good reason. Every attempt to establish a Palestinian State on that land has failed due to Palestinian recalcitrance. As if. Say here's a thought— how about you have one state that doesn't ban people for having Arabic-sounding names while declaring that any Jew on the planet has a right to live there? 3. What about them? They do not control the Israeli government. By your logic, the United States is a theocracy because of the political power of the Evangelicals. If the Evangelicals were regularly exempted from any law they found inconvenient, I would say precisely that. |

Because the western nations have given up their colonies. So if you think of Israel as a western nation, and if you think of its actions as those of a colonial power (despite the numerous differences), then Israel is the only colonial power left to criticize.PS.

It only referenced their lineage to point out that they had been there long enough to reasonably call it their homeland; they're not immigrants or the first-generation descendants thereof like a good number of the Jews who settled there.However, that is irrelevant. Races do not have exclusive rights to lands, and countries do not have the right to restrict travel based on ancestry. What is relevant is this: The West Bank is being kept in poverty by Israeli occupation. Gaza is being kept in poverty by Israeli blockades and occupation in everything but name. |

Yes, but if two crimes have the same number of victims (keeping in mind that people killed and people intimidated into changing behaviour or belief are both "victims") then there's no meaningful distinction between the crimes— the motive really doesn't matter.Two wars, a massive surveillance state, a few concentration camps, a few hundred or thousand cases of wrongful imprisonment and torture, and the general suspension of basic human rights rest on the failure to understand this fact. |
