Time to erase Israel's Green Line : Comments
By Neve Gordon, published 19/6/2015If once the Green Line was conceived as a border that could provide a just solution between Israelis and Palestinians, currently the Green Line serves as a very effective mechanism of colonial control.

I am indebted to Lego for creating a straw man for me, and then pointing out what is wrong with it. Lego’s straw man is not quite all there and is high on drugs and a supporter of Islam, conflates American culture with Jewish supremacism and calls it “White” culture which the straw man rejects – the “White” culture of the Enlightenment and the war against Nazi and Jap aggression - the core of Australia’s freedom. The straw man instead is wedded to the supremacist culture of Islam (a culture which, maybe along with Lego, I reject as the main enemy today of civilisation and decency and an enemy Fifth Column which we in Australia are out of our minds to accept in our country.)
Palestine is an area of land stretching from the Mediterranean Sea to the River Jordan (no further). Foreign settlers occupied part of it by violent ethnic cleansing in the years up to 1948 and claimed this part as the racial supremacist state of Israel (but without a constitution as that would imply owning up to its racism and to where it regarded its ultimate borders to lie). Competition between two (in my language vile) supremacisms guarantee an endless war between occupiers and Resistance. Currently touted solutions to end the war phase of the conflict even though not the ideological conflict - which would have to preclude violence in a peace accepted by the inhabitants (people born there plus exiles) - are a two state solution or (less popular) one state solution based on equality as I (not the straw man) explained earlier in this thread and others. There are NO other states in the world constructed on the basis of ethnicity. In Mein Kampf, Hitler bleated pitifully that Austria wasn’t. Posted by EmperorJulian, Friday, 26 June 2015 12:25:26 PM

SF,
You're so full of yourself. Decent people don't tortue.... LOL Well if you tortured people you wouldn't be very decent would you.. What an retard.. haha.. If you think using white phosphorous on anyone is ok you're a complete sadist. Don't you know that stuff ignites as soon as its come into contact with umm.. AIR?? And that it's only safe while submerged in water? Excellent that Monsanto makes a heap of money out of it though so it can bring us so many toxic carcinogenic products... Awesome. Prof. blah blah blah.. How much did they bribe him to say that? Decent people don't use snipers? No they have the air force commit air strikes on kids and civilians homes instead don't they? Have you read the UN HRC report on Gaza? Palestinian homes demolished after the court rules it? A Palestinian court possibly? Ooops naw. Maybe you haven't heard of the occupation yet? Sounds about as legal as a Kiwi bulldozing an Aussies home and saying its legal. Man you talk some absolute crap. I feel sad for you trying to support such garbage and keep it together at the same time I think you're losing it. Israel witholds medicines.. Of course they do, what you expect from a government willing to bomb hospitals? http://mondoweiss.net/2014/07/military-destroyed-hospital Heres some truth. Israel's going nuts at the moment over the recent UN HRC report on Gaza. http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Israel-supporters-to-rally-in-Geneva-against-UNHRC-Gaza-report-407201 Israel even went so far as to distribute its own report.. and everyone was insulted.. Netanyahu's done his block again and will probably send tanks into Gaza again since Palestine has now taken Israel to the ICC and Abbas is supposed to be resigning. (Its all Israel knows what to do is to punish the Palestinians) Tel Aviv even tries to stifle the voices of IDF soldiers who speak out. http://www.breakingthesilence.org.il/ And they are trying to justify taking land in Syria as a buffer for the 'Druze' who yesterday attacked IDF soldiers and Ambulances who were providing medical care for Syrian ISIS fighters and who now threaten their community in Syria...

Every state on planet Earth has dominant culture usually that of the dominant ethnic group, race, or religion. Where two or more dissimilar cultures exist within the same territory, and a minority culture is increasing in numbers, either through immigration or birth rate differentials, the result has always been serious social strife, race riots, civil disobedience, ghettoism, calls for separatism, terrorism, state fragmenation, and sometimes civil war.
Separatism and civil wars always result in socially cohesive monocultural states dominated by the culture of the most numerous cultural group. Examples would be Yugoslavia (now Orthodox Serbia and Macedonia, Catholic Croatia, and Muslim Bosnia). Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic and Slovenia). What was formerly British India (now India, Pakistan and Bangladesh).
Your premise that no one culture should be dominant within a particular state, and that to cultures with diametrically opposed values can somehow rule together as one government,t was probably the result of a thought process scambled by smoking too much Mexican loco weed.
The Arab Muslims have no intention of allowing the state of Israel to exist, because it is an affront to their religion. Their religion can only go forward to conquer the world. It can never go backwards. A country conquered by Islam can never revert to the culture of the conquered. That was why they built a dirty great mosque on top of the Jews most holy place. It is their way of saying that this is now Muslim land forever.
It is funny how you can instantly claim to recognise white racial superiority as the cause of all the problems in South Africa, but are strangely myopic to the fact that Muslim Arab racism is entirely to blame for the problems of the Muddle East. Your brain seems to ping on "Arabs, Minorities, Must Be Protected", and looks around for another cause. It pings again with "Jews and Americans", which registers "White Western Culture, Always Wrong."
Your world then makes sense.
