No it doesn’t and I’m not pro-Stalin either. Do you think human rights orgs are pro Hamas or something? Even if the human shields argument was true it doesn’t justify bombing civilians (that are mostly women and children). Hamas has done war crimes and deserve to be prosecuted for them same as every Israeli official who’s done war crimes. More terrorism against the Palestinian people will only increase support for armed militia groups. Ending the apartheid by giving Palestinians human rights and improving the QoL is how you take away any support for those kind of armed groups.

The only way to replace apartheid is with a democratic system.

The West Bank is like an open-air prison where you send petty criminals who are allowed more time to go outside and work outside. And there’s no harsh regime inside but it’s still a prison. Even the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, if he moves from Area B to C, he needs the Israelis to open the gate for him. And that’s for me very symbolic, the fact that the president cannot move without the Israeli jailer opening the cage.

There is, of course, a Palestinian response all the time to this. Palestinians are not passive and they don’t accept it. We saw the first Intifada and the second Intifada, and perhaps we will see a third Intifada. The Israelis say to the Palestinians, in a prison management mentality, that if you resist we will take away all your privileges, like we do in prison. You won’t be able to work outside. You won’t be able to move freely, and you will be punished collectively. This is the kind of the punitive side of it, collective punishment as retaliation.

INTERVIEW: Ilan Pappé: How Israel turned Palestine into the biggest prison on earth

Israel controls all aspects of movement, Water, Air space, Sea access, borders, Imports (food and building supplies), Labor exploitation, and maintain the apartheid through violence

A prison, also known as a jail, gaol, penitentiary, detention center, correction center, correctional facility, or remand center, is a facility where people are confined against their will and denied a variety of freedoms under the authority of the state, generally as punishment for various crimes. Authorities most commonly use prisons within a criminal-justice system: people charged with crimes may be imprisoned until their trial; those who have pled or been found guilty of crimes at trial may be sentenced to a specified period of imprisonment.

It is absolutely an open air prison, except you get in just by being born inside the OPTs with the only court you’ll ever see being a military court where even children can be taken from their families indefinitely with administrative detention

Woah there nice argument buddy. The username is kinda funny so everything he says must be wrong! Ad hominem much?

Of course many things are relative, still if we do not try to discuss specific terms there will never be human understanding.

Is Israel imaginary? Me as living in Finland, I could still not verify.

Is there a massive weapon industry in U.S: and Nato countries? Well, that you can believe it. Every bullet sold is documented by multiple entities.

Is there a specific count of bullets, assault rifles, grenades, rocket launchers, war drones, missiles, ground mines, military vehicles and bombs sold to Israel by U.S. and Nato? Yes.

Is military funding accounted? Yes.

If something is official, you can trust it is real.

On the other hand Iran smugles armament to Hamas. That amount cannot compete with the official Nato supply. It’s just industrially and logistically impossible.

A gun vs knife situations consequence is that a ‘war,’ as you call it became a genocide.

If we do not try to specify terms, ww2 jews could also be just ‘war casualties’.

Another highlight for the “most important” lines:

The claims were remarkably specific — that five hospital buildings were directly involved in Hamas activities; that the buildings sat atop underground tunnels that were used by militants to direct rocket attacks and command fighters; and that the tunnels could be accessed from inside hospital wards. The assertions were backed by “concrete evidence,” Israel Defense Forces spokesman Daniel Hagari said as he laid out the case in an Oct. 27 briefing.

The Post’s analysis shows:

• The rooms connected to the tunnel network discovered by IDF troops showed no immediate evidence of military use by Hamas.
• None of the five hospital buildings identified by Hagari appeared to be connected to the tunnel network.
• There is no evidence that the tunnels could be accessed from inside hospital wards.
