Of course some of the Arab world kep complaining to the UN of Israeli War crimes and human rights violations just like they do of our soldiers. They do not want Israel to exist nor their claim to Jerusalem. Our Media only give Palistian reports on issues affecting Palestine and is not balanced reporting. I have relatives living in Israel and there are many Palistinians employed in Israel and they respect each other. However the Hamas news reporting coming out of Palestine is based in hate for Israel and the Greens listen to these reports.

Someone referring to Burnside made the quip that "some of the best educated in our midst also sometimes seem the most unwise".

It depends on what 'being educated' means in the true sense, but in Burnside's case, I believe it has nothing to do with a lack of wisdom, but sheer Green viciousness.

Burnside's missus added to the calumny by insulting Josh Freydenberg as "just a Hungarian, just a Liberal" - deciding to avoid "just a Jew"

Shadowminister,

You constantly drag out the anti-semetic slur to attack others constantly. You misuse it completely and massively disrespect Holocaust victims by doing so. Your obvious disregard for history is a cancer and belittles everything you say.

Comparisons between the actions of the Israeli Government along with the IDF and Nazi Germany are legitimate and often made even by prominent Israeli figures.

The Israeli army's deputy chief of staff didn't hold back in a Holocaust Memorial speech in 2014: "It's scary to see horrifying developments that took place in Europe begin to unfold here,"

Are you now going to call him a 'self hating Jew'?

Dear Josephus,

What a load of crock. Are you just that invested in supporting Israel at any cost that you can see no issue with how they have dealt with the Palestinians, no comment on the land theft which is now occurring on a daily basis, no comment of the rampant settler violence and no comment on the apartheid which is such a feature of Israel?

Pathetic.

Good work Steele. Kudos!

Arabs in Israel get to vote....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.
Arabs in Israel get to sit in parliament....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.
Arabs in Israel get to use schools, hospitals, transport etc alongside the rest of the community.....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.
Arabs outside Israel are regularly bought to Israel for medical attention.....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.
Arabs in Gaza have a homeland given to them by Israel.....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.
Arabs in Gaza and the West Bank are allowed to elect and appoint their own government....just like Jews in Nazi Germany.

Yeah its exactly like the Holocaust.

What Israel does:

1) Imposes institutionalized discrimination against
Palestinians living under its rule in Israel and
the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT).

2) Israel has displaced hundred of Palestinians in
Israel and the occupied West Bank including East Jerusalem
as a result of home demolitions and imposition of other
coercive measures.

3) Israeli forces use excessive force during its law
enforcement activities in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

4) Israeli forces routinely kill Palestinians, including
children in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Many killed
are unlawfully killed posing no imminent threat.

5) Israel maintains its illegal blockade in the Gaza Strip
subjecting its residents to collective punishment and
deepening the humanitarian crisis there.

6) Israel restricts freedom of movement of Palestinians in
the Occupied Palestinian Territories through checkpoints and
blockades.

7) The Israeli authorities arbitrarily detain thousands of
Palestinians from the Occupied Palestinian Territories
holding them without charge or trial.

8) Torture and other ill treatments of detainees including
children are committed with impunity.

9) The Israeli authorities target human rights defenders,
journalists, and others who criticize Israel's occupation
of the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Syrian Golan Heights.

10) Violence against women persists especially Palestinian
citizens of Israel.

11) Israeli authorities deny asylum seekers access to a fair
or prompt refugee status.
