J
Green Party statement: "The motion sets out the Party’s opposition to Zionism, defined as an ethnonationalist political project, and states that anti-Zionism should not be equated with antisemitism. The motion reasserts the Party’s commitment to Palestinian liberation, the right of return, Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS), and a full arms…

It's not your argument at all, because Israel / Palestine is far from a far gone conclusion. It's actively happening... You told me colonialism was bad and I was just following through with the logical conclusion. So why not give the USA back to its native peoples, or Australia to the Aborigines? What makes something a far gone conclusion exactly?…

Did you know? In 1975 the United Nations general assembly passed a resolution declaring "zionism is a form of racism & racial discrimination" (the resolution was revoked in 1991 because Israel made this a condition of its participation in peace talks)

The motion was carried by 1,022 votes to 813 (55%–45%). It defines Zionism as “a political ideology which called for the creation - and, now it exists, the continuation - of an ethnonationalist Jewish State in historic Palestine to the exclusion and/or domination of the non-Jewish population,” and states that this will be treated as any other form…

Jews have had a consistent presence in the holy land, have lived there, pray for a return home, have left such a stunning impact on the archaeology on the region BEFORE the invasion of the Arabs that led to the end of local culture that existed there at the time under the pressure of Arabization, meaning that indigenous roots that weren't…

True, nothing colonial about emigration. What makes it colonial is the suppression, subjugation, cultural erasure and ethnic cleaning of the inhabitants already present Bud I hate to shatter your glass house worldview, but Palestinians & their colonizing ancestors literally have done, are doing, and want to continue to do, all of this ol. You are…

Zionism is racism because Palestinian refugees are banned from returning to their homeland *because* they are Palestinian. It is not a matter of debate. It doesn’t mean multiple things. This is a factual description of a racist project.

Horn's quote above says clearly that Jews are "a joinable tribal group with a shared history". So going through a formal process to join such a group is a far cry from waking up in the morning and deciding that you're Mongolian. Giyur is an arduous formal process of study and ultimate acceptance by a rabbinical court, similar in some sense to the…

I mean it literally says in the bible that a woman that isn’t heard by another man to cry out for help if they are having relations with someone they are not married to, they should both be stoned to death. At least in the Quran, it details a specific mechanism in which a woman can accuse a man of rape, and punishment is handed out accordingly. It…

Your points are so basic that they're difficult to reply to seriously. But I'll try. Academics get stuff wrong. Theyre also responsible for getting things right and making positive contributions.
