He's just proving that most Israelis are of recent European or American ancestry and the whole far right blood and soil thing is 100% racist bullshiit to justify a huge land grab and apartheid against the Arabs.

ofc you diverse, but please lets say on subject.

I will like to give you all an example, im sure most of you are unaware of, that explains the lengh in which you ensure civilians safety, and why we have somewhat of low death rate.

In Israel, any new building that is being built, and any renovation that includes a an addition of at least 12 meters to the building, residential or not, it is mandated by The Planning and Construction Law, to build also a safe room with at least 30 centimeters of hard cement and Iron. we call this rooms MAMAD (hebrew initials for protected space).

the room is around 9-12 square meters.

that is a very expensive room, which averages at around 150,000 NIS, or around 40,000$ (just for one room). every house, every office, every building has this rooms.

that is mandated and you cannot receive a permit without building such room. even in arab villages that is required.

whenever rockets are fired onto Israel, we all enter our MAMADS.

that is one more measure that we take to protect civilians.

are Moroccans jews European?

Ethiopians jews?

Syrian jews?

Iraqi Jews?

Bucharim?

should I go on?

ashkenazi jews are a minority in Israel, of around 30%, but who cares about the facts

That's very nice for you and gives extra EV to the rockets you fire at Palestinian tents and into Lebanon. Well done.

Oooh look. The settler-colonist likes slumming with the natives.

Everyone here who reads and pays attention knows that Israel requires safe rooms and shelters. Most certainly jalfrezi did know this.

Pretty racist to assume that he’s a European Jew just because he lives in Israel. You realize many Jewish Israelis are also indigenous? You also realize that some of the Arab Israelis might not be indigenous to Israel as well?

Also hope you’re not US or Canada because by your lights you should probably leave the country if you’re not indigenous.

Honestly this might be the dumbest concept leftists try to import into the discussion, since none of you actually live by your own standards in that regard. No one possibly could because it’s all about how far back you track it. Before the Israelis became “colonizers” they were ethnically cleansed and forcibly converted by Arab Muslims, and before them they ethnically cleansed the Canaanites and before them probably someone else lived there.

This whole notion of trying to turn back the clock and figure out who really belongs there is just not productive to peace.

do they let the Arabs into those rooms?

.

Someone has to sweep their floors for them.

Pretty surprising development here. Apparently this guy has a history of picking fights. I do think it was a coincidence in this situation though and he was a victim.

lol I just read that. kinda think it has little to do with I/P and more to do with the guy having some mental problems.

He is clearly not a well man. Jeff said it in the article but you really have to feel for those kids.

Yes I'm aware what you said but that just sounds like a pat disclaimer and you're really implying he deserved it but can't outright say this so give said pat disclaimer. beforehand . Kinda like when racists make pat disclaimers like "hey I'm not racist and all BUT...."

The fact that you explode at the mere notion of this and wail I'm a dumb fuddermucker makes me think I'm not wrong either. Or else you just have serious anger management issues, which you should probably see someone over. Help you rise above things, so to speak.

In this thread we periodically get the argument about how good you treat the Arabs and how much the Green Line Arabs love you. The great irony of this is that it completely undermines the argument for a Jewish ethno-state. If Arabs and Jews get along so well, why not make West Bank and Gaza Arabs into citizens and solve it all?

sorry, I dont engage with Nazi's

That's true and it's greatly exaggerated by what we focus on.

Some like to insist that out the focus on the plight of the palestinians over other desperate situations is because of antisemitism but I'd say ~all of it has been down to, like previously with South Africa, dedicated work to bring it to the public conciousness. It would be nice if we could focus on all problems at the same time but it doesn't seem possible for humans to do that.

The comparisons to South Africa are so hamfisted, and I don’t especially care that Mandela and his son think they are apt.

No two international situations are ever the same but Israel and apartheid South Africa are as near as damnit apart from the black population in South Africa being the large majority.

yeesh

sadly you are not far behind

They didn't cover that one at hasbara school?

Thank you, I rest my case

no they aren’t. arab israelis have equal rights to jewish israelis which makes the situation completely incomparable. Also, the WB and Gaza are considered their own government by Israel, they just occupy it. They don’t consider them second class citizens, they just aren’t citizens period.
