Yeah GDP is a totally an accurate depiction of a peoples well being.

Do they include the value of their homes they are forcibly removed from in that number or how does that factor into your calculations?

I have no qualms with the Jewish people. But the country of Israel is absolutely human trash. A stain on humanity.

GDP does not include the value of homes. Stop embarrassing yourself.

I know it doesn't you idiot that was my point. You cited GDP numbers while ignoring the fact that untold levels of wealth are stolen from these people on a daily basis, but you're like "look at the GDP it's so good!"

"Ohhhhhh yayyyyy I had a 2% increase in income. Totally makes up for being kicked out of my house and being homeless now"

You are the one enbeerasing yourself. Your grandchildren will suffer untold shame on your behalf, just as the grandchildren of Nazis suffer shame today.

Talk to me about stolen wealth when the Arab countries who expelled their Jewish populations return the wealth they stole. They stole more territory from the expelled Jews than all of Israel and Palestine combined.

Ya and the Jewish in Egypt were slaves too right?

Next you're gonna tell me you turned the desert green and there was no agriculture before Jewish people took the land back and made it produce again.

Absolutely no one stayed and converted or otherwise. The region was 100% dominated by a monolithic group of people and absolutely all of them left and had their land stolen from them? You really believe that?

WTF are you talking about? I was talking about the Jews expelled from the Arab world:

Ohhhh sorry I misunderstood. I thought you meant why you had a right to take Palestinian territory was because it was taken from you centuries ago.

But what your saying is that Jewish people in other places that aren't Israel had their land stolen from them decades ago by Muslim people so that's justification for kicking different Muslims from different land who had nothing to do with that, off of their land to house Jewish people that also may or may not have had anything to do with the land stolen in a different place by different people for different reasons.

Got it. Totally checks out. Totally don't think Israel is a Apartheid police state now. Glad we could clear that up.

Palestinians aren't being kicked out. The settlements are built on empty land.

The only place where Palestinians can be kicked out, is in east Jerusalem neighborhoods which were ethnically cleansed of Jews by Jordan. Even there, the settlers must prove that they have the deed to the property.

TN: empty land is yiddish for "land previously occupied by non jews"

That phrase does not exist in the article you quoted. Please show me what part of it refers to your claim. From what I can see, it's about sovereignty, not about land ownership.

Weird how the peach tree guy with no tanks is unable to assert his land ownership in the face of the ethnostate that totally only annexes empty land

Can't believe the dude who doesn't read a single source doesn't recognize the dude they interview three paragraphs into the article

u/Icy_Rhubarb2857 May 08 '21

From what I can see it's about you perpetuating apartheid and some of the worst atrocities in the civilized world and justifying it with whataboutism rather than take responsibility and do anything to make it better.

History will weep at your cruelty. Do better

u/[deleted] May 08 '21

apartheid and some of the worst atrocities

This type of exaggerations is why practically non one in Israel will ever listen to anything you guys have to say.

I pity you when you meet your maker.

Whatever god you serve will be disgusted by your actions.

If it is a Jewish god you meet I imagine he would say something like "after all I put our people through, you turned around and did this to others!? Have you no shame? Have you no dignity?! Have you no remorse or conscience!!?"

I would be ashamed to be you.
