Amnesty hops on UN bandwagon to demonize Israel and Jews : Comments

By David Singer, published 14/2/2022

Amnesty International in its 280 page report entitled Israel's Apartheid against Palestinians villifies Israel

Feel free to demonstrate specifically which facts listed in the report are wrong. Criticism of the actions of a State does not implicate all citizens of that State.

If it was some place like North Korea doing all these things they would be demonised and deemed to be a pariah state.

Coincidentally I remember when Israel helped train South African security forces during the Apartheid era so they have no historical disapproval of the concept.

Pauliar,

To compare apples with apples both Taiwan and South Korea have active social security systems whereas both China and India have pretty close to nothing.

In both India and China the elderly have to live with their children or on the street. In China, there was roughly 2.5m homeless pre covid and the problem has only got worse.

"This Report fails to acknowledge that there has been an ongoing unresolved conflict for the last 100 years between the Jewish People and the Arab residents of former Palestine."

Great to see some improvement here:

Formerly, till now, the author just used to say "the 100 year old Jewish-Arab conflict" - now he acknowledges that this "conflict" is only with certain Arabs, not all.

He still uses the dirty name which the Romans gave to the land of Israel in order to insult and humiliate the conquered Israelis - which shows what his real attitude towards Israel and Jews is.

One day hopefully the author may acknowledge that this "conflict" involves not only SOME Arabs but also only SOME Jews.
One day he could also acknowledge that most of these "Arab residents" are themselves ethnically Jewish, thus what we see here is not "Apartheid" but a bad case of domestic violence and rivalry between brothers.

Amnesty has become as bigoted and racist as the UN.
