Ariel Sharon later [in year 2005] withdrew from all of Gaza. <br /><br />The Israeli occupation of the Palestinians came to an end. The only “occupation” of the Palestinians currently in force is the 23-year occupation by the Palestinian Authority and the occupation of Gaza by Hamas, which is now entering its 11th year.<br /><br />The Palestinians’ schools are run by Palestinian principals and teachers. The courts have Palestinian judges. The streets are policed by the Palestinian police and security forces. When elections are held, the candidates and the voters are all Palestinians. <br /><br />Pretty much the only thing that the Palestinian Authority can’t do is import tanks, planes, Iranian “volunteers” or North Korean missiles.<br /><br />The only time Israeli troops enter Palestinian areas is when they are chasing terrorists. Going into some Palestinian town for an hour or two to catch a bomb-thrower or a sniper hardly constitutes an “occupation” of the Palestinians.<br /><br /><b>SOURCE:</b> <i>Harvard’s Jewish Students Flunk ‘Israeli History 101’</i><br />by Stephen M.

By the end of that week, he finally begins accruing a few troll ratings, and then seems to have a sense of exactly when to stop before getting into any 'trouble,' so he can do it all over again a year or so later. Of course, if he were doing the same thing from a pro-I perspective he would have been banned years ago.<br /><br />I think I recall he actually did four or five of those diaries over just one day, and about twelve total that week, the one time he popped up during my year in A-I at that site.<br /><br />Maybe that's how he spends his vacation.JayinPhiladelphiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14556212008313470286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-35880506432039439512013-02-26T11:30:00.471-08:002013-02-26T11:30:00.471-08:00The conversation over there has clearly deteriorat...The conversation over there has clearly deteriorated.<br /><br />It was always miserable, but now it's just complete garbage.<br /><br />Just take a gander at <a href="http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/02/22/1189220/-Israel-Practices-Extraordinary-Rendition-on-Children" rel="nofollow">Eternal Dope's</a> latest toxic and facile nonsense.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-29413127966124646182013-02-26T06:17:43.429-08:002013-02-26T06:17:43.429-08:00I haven't taken a peek at DailyKKKos /tag/isra...I haven't taken a peek at DailyKKKos /tag/israel for a long time. They just recycle their—for want of a better word—discussions, so there's nothing new to see. I once said DKos is a useful barometer as to what is acceptable on the mainstream left, so you could take it to mean Open Season on Jewish self-determination is approaching. If former Kossacks who are now "refugees" in Mound o' Scheiss are granted a "Right of Return," I'll be able to declare the complete mainstreaming of Progressive anti-Zionism.<br /><br />An interesting exchange further down: JNREBEL says, "Israel is not an apartheid state." Response by Corvo: "Israel isn't, but the Israeli-occupied West Bank, on the other hand . . ." Jimmy Carter's going to sue for copyright violation there, Corvo! But you know why I really find this interesting? Because this evasion will only hold true as long as there's the goal of ethnically cleansing the post-1967 Israel of all Jews; should this mission be accomplished, you'll get to see the quick migration of the apartheid accusation to the remnant pre-1967 Jewish State. You can bank on it.<br /><br />Speaking of ethnic cleansing: Further down on /tag/israel, there's a diary (by "Obamalover20122") with the title, "Can Ethnic Cleansing Be Justified?" I can answer that: Apparently it can, on DKos and other places where humanitarian racism is welcome, as long as it's Jews who are to be on the receiving end of it. Then it's not only justified, it's a noble act without which peace in the Middle East, and therefore in the world (funny how no other local conflict gets blown into a global one this way), is impossible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-53217275419456326162013-02-26T03:15:40.565-08:002013-02-26T03:15:40.565-08:00And here it goes again.

Though I'm amazed they didn't call the border closing a 'provocation' or something like that.
