The NYT article quoted here doesn't mention settlements. @kenroth is so obsessed with Israel that he has to throw in digs when irrelevant,

Removing settlements is not international law. No one - including @HRW - says Turkey must remove settlements from N. Cyprus.

Roth lies.
@KenRoth @hrw Speaking of, international legal scholars recognize that settlers have human rights, too - IN N. CYPRUS. For some reason @KenRoth doesn't believe that Jews have human rights. Quote from the Encyclopedia of Human Rights Vol 1. elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-on…
@KenRoth @hrw Int'l law is against "transfer" of citizens to occupied territory. Transfer in every other context in Geneva means forcible transfer, based on a Nazi practice. Jews who move to Judea/Samaria do it voluntarily.

Forcible transfer of Jews OUT of their homes in J&S may be illegal!
@KenRoth @hrw HRW is so obsessed with settlements that it makes up new rules, like "Airbnb is violating int'l law" or "Banks that loan money to Jews in J&S violate int'l law." These are absurd - but @HRW wants to criminalize Jews living in their ancestral lands. elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2017/09/hrw-ma…

"Ethnic Food Festival, what kind of food do you offer?"
>"Chinese."
"Great! Fill in this short form.
"And what kind of food do you offer?"
>"Israeli."
(furrows brow) "Can I see your menu? I want to make sure you aren't appropriating Arab food."
1/
>"Um, what?"
"No falafel, hummus, pita, things like that."
>"But I make Israeli food!"
"No such thing. And we can't have you without also having a Palestinian food vendor."
>"Why, exactly?"
"Also, if you are Israeli and Jewish, were you in the army? That would be a problem."
2/
>"This is insulting. I'm now an American citizen."
"Even so. How many Palestinians have you killed?"
>"Now wait a min..."
"Of course, you have to be far away from the wonderful Syrian food area."
>"Why were they allowed..."

The vaccine debacle shows again a fundamental difference between the Israeli and Palestinian mentality - and why peace with Palestinians is impossible.

1/
Israelis want to find solutions to problems. Ideally, the solutions are win-win – both sides get what they want and everyone is ahead of where they were previously.
2/
Israel had vaccines that were coming close to expiration. Palestinians were way behind in vaccinating their population, and their vaccines – which they ordered many months ago – were delayed.

There are more reporters in Israel/Pal territories than anywhere else.

And ALL of them look for dirt (real or imagined) from Israel, while nearly NONE of them spend any time trying to find anything negative about the corrupt, criminal Palestinian Authority.

EVERYONE KNOWS THIS.
I have a story tomorrow morning about an egregious abuse of power by the PA over the past month that has not been reported anywhere. Where are the reporters?

Consciously or not, the media colludes to make Israel look bad and to give passes to the PA. Consistently. Constantly.
This has real world consequences. It is essentially a conspiracy to ensure that the world sees Israel as evil incarnate and the Palestinians as victims of Zionist aggression, with no faults and no agency.

This utter failure of the media to report fairly causes antisemitism.

The irony is that never in history has any war where the terrorists deliberately place their targets among civilians resulted in a lower civilian to fighter ration of deaths. IN HISTORY. And most of the civilians were killed because they were near high value legitimate targets.1/
Under Geneva, civilians do not shield legitimate targets, unless their loss is not proportionate. The rules on proportionality depend on the opinion of a "reasonable military commander" given intel at that moment.

So as regrettable as this was, it was legal and part of war. 2/
Israel is literally the model for avoiding unnecessary civilian deaths - and it is vilified as some sort of monster, when its critics cannot point to any time in history that an army did better at avoiding civilian casualties.

1000 heavy bombs - and few of them killed anyone.3/

YOU ANTI-ZIONISTS ARE SO FULL OF SHIT.

You are the only ones who can actually make a dent in the current tsunami of wanton attacks on Jews, but instead you are covering your butts and those of your Arab friends - and ensuring that their attacks will only intensify.

1/
If you REALLY gave a shit about antisemitism, you would say "The people attacking Jews are not welcome at our events and we want nothing to do with them. we abhor them and do not want them."

You won't - because then they would attack YOU. F-king cowards.
2/
Instead, you issue wishy washy statements against some vague "antisemitism" and then emphasize that being pro-Palestinian isn't antisemitic. You care more about your own politics than Jewish lives. Assholes.

The biggest progressive lie about antisemitism is that it can only be fought in conjunction with fighting racism, homophobia, Islamophobia and so forth.

It is not close to true.

There are a few reasons for that.
Firstly, none of the other hates are based on a conspiracy theory. People hate minority groups because they are the "other" or they feel threatened and people retreat into fear and hate.

But Jew-hate is different - it is the only hate that is based on a conspiracy theory.
Jew-hate claims that Jews (Israel) secretly control the media, the banks, the government. That they work together in secret cabals with the goal of world domination (or Middle East hegemony.)
