    Oh yeah, what about this then?

    Howard Friel writes that Tutu “views the conditions in the occupied Palestinian territories as resembling apartheid in South Africa.” BBC News reported in 2012 that Tutu “accused Israel of practicing apartheid in its policies towards Palestinians.”[325]

    Or this? https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/7/26/south-africa-calls-for-israels-proscription-as-apartheid-state

    I think what I will do is quote bits of it for you every day until you realize.

    I think the most pathetic part is that those are opinions of experts on this and they seem to overwhemlingly believe Israel is an apartheid state. But you keep comparig it to a group of idiot flat earthers. Making that connection in your head is probably to protect from shame/guilt.

    Whenever it’s Israel, your brain seems to shut off.

    By your logic, is south Africa being anti semitic?

      Yes they are. It’s rote hypocrisy.

      I think you don’t recognize what sort of things are facts and what sort of things are opinions.

      How far did you go in school?

      Read the dude’s quote that you quoted.

      It “resembles apartheid.”

      It’s not apartheid though.

      Howard Friel writes that Tutu “views the conditions in the occupied Palestinian territories as resembling apartheid in South Africa.”

        So when South Africa says Israel is an apartheid state, they’re just expressing an anti-Semitic opinion? Not based on any evidence? And all people who overwhelmingly agree are just also anti-Semitic? Can’t you see how this just makes Israel above criticism so it can continue its genocidal landgrabbing?

        Bud, I’m sorry to say that you have been tricked™.

            an opinion piece

            Do you not see how dumb that was to say given it was NOT an opinion piece?

            and how about running away from this one?

              @JustZ@lemmy.world sorry, no response on this yet??? Is this also an “opinion piece” from “Qatari run state media”? Or is this just another piece of reality that you want to ignore?

              I have lots more btw. You don’t like the NYT? no problem, I got the same piece of news from a lot more outlets spread over many dates.

                  You have tried to block me?

                  Did you try going to my account from the web interface and clicking “Block User” shown in the top right? Otherwise, tell me what app you’re using and I can google a method for you.

                  Any success in blocking me, bud?

                  Maybe you finally realized my life is worth just as much as your own? Do I detect a smidge of empathy?
