words that don't mean what I wish them to mean but use them for what they actually mean, then yes. You want to use the word apartheid because it causes a visceral reaction and that's the only reason you want to use it. Not because it's what you're describing. That would be entirely your problem. And frankly, stuff your hasbarist bullshit - nobody pays me to defend Israel so you can stop LYING about that also. All you fucking do is lie about posters who disagree with you. It's repulsive.

Mandela never said it because Israel isn't Apartheid. n/t shira Nov 2015 #28

Once again, Mandela never called Israel Apartheid - did he? n/t shira Nov 2015 #33

Yea, he thought colonialism and Israeli policy was SUPER..just like you do. Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #37

Looks like neither you or Dugard know the definition of colonialism. n/t shira Nov 2015 #49

Documentation abounds to support the label. Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #50

And recognized by no one of import. No western democracies take that bullshit seriously. shira Nov 2015 #51

International law is for fascists and totalitarians? Next, what? You have zero to refute Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #52

Remember this is about Apartheid and Colonialism. No Western nations buy that crap.... shira Nov 2015 #53

Start with Dugard being wrong. He is wrong when he claims racial apartheid. shira Nov 2015 #57

You've already been given the evidence, there are two different systems in place, and it is Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #58

Dugard claimed 2 different races. Sorry, game over. He's a moron. Good talk. shira Nov 2015 #59

It's moronic to claim a race war between 2 races there. That's the least.... shira Nov 2015 #61

Dugard's explanation which you deny over your inept semantics attempt? No, we don't agree. Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #62

Now you're changing the subject to Amnesty. They don't claim Apartheid either. shira Nov 2015 #63

Sure, Dugard accuses Israel of Grand & Petty Apartheid, Bantustans & Racial Discrimination.... shira Nov 2015 #40

He hits it out of the park. Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #42

He claimed racial discrimination. Game over. He claimed bantustans.... shira Nov 2015 #44

Your inability to refute anything he stated is noted. You're also misrepresenting Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #45

He claimed racial apartheid & bantustans. There is no such thing. n/t shira Nov 2015 #47

Dugard also claims there are Bantustans in the W.Bank. He's a moron.... shira Nov 2015 #32

The Likud line of defense, make nonsensical assertions of what he actually said. Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #34

You can't defend Dugard's Bantustans accusation, can you? Blame Oslo then. shira Nov 2015 #35

You're not going to answer my questions? Where are these bantustan accussations? Jefferson23 Nov 2015 #39
