Twenty years later, Rachel Corrie lives

Twenty years ago, an Israeli bulldozer crushed Rachel Corrie to death as she protected a Palestinian home. She has since become a global symbol for those seeking justice. Israel may have killed Rachel, but she lives on in us.

Wow such important arguments regarding international law, glad I caught up with the article. This was a great conclusion:

The message in the expert testimonies can be boiled down to the fact that not only is the British government's suppression of a discussion on Israel's "right to exists" preposterous, ahistorical and an attack on freedom of thought, there can be no discussion about Israel's "right to exist" without a similar discussion about Palestine's right to exist.

Label Israel what it is — an apartheid state

Political leaders would rather limit our freedom to criticize the horrors Israel inflicts on Palestinians than take an honest look at the apartheid system they support.

There's no doubt anymore that the entity IS an apartheid state. Take a look at this from almost 10 years ago apartheid

It's not even debatable which is why the entity regurgitates hasbara such as this nonsense

Some excerpts from the apartheid link (it's a long read but its worthwhile imo for anyone with the time to read it in its entirety).

'
Article 2 of the Apartheid Convention identifies a list of inhuman acts which amount to apartheid if they are:

committed for the purpose of establishing and maintaining domination by one racial group of persons over any other racial group of persons and systematically oppressing them.

Article 7(2)(h) of the Rome Statute similarly refers to apartheid as criminal acts

committed in the context of an institutionalized regime of systematic oppression and domination by one racial group over any other racial group or groups and committed with the intention of maintaining that regime.'

'
Article 2 of the Apartheid Convention provides the most detailed list of practices that are discrete human rights violations in themselves, but that may further amount to acts of apartheid when committed in a systematic fashion for the purpose of maintaining domination by one racial group over another:

1. (a) Denial to a member or members of a racial group or groups of the right to life and liberty of person:
2. (i) By murder of members of a racial group or groups;
3. (ii) By the infliction upon the members of a racial group or groups of serious bodily or mental harm, by the infringement of their freedom or dignity, or by subjecting them to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment;
4. (iii) By arbitrary arrest and illegal imprisonment of the members of a racial group or groups;
5. (b) Deliberate imposition on a racial group or groups of living conditions calculated to cause its or their physical destruction in whole or in part;
6. (c) Any legislative measures and other measures calculated to prevent a racial group or groups from participation in the political, social, economic and cultural life of the country and the deliberate creation of conditions preventing the full development of such a group or groups, in particular by denying to members of a racial group or groups basic human rights and freedoms, including the right to work, the right to form recognized trade unions, the right to education, the right to leave and to return to their country, the right to a nationality, the right to freedom of movement and residence, the right to freedom of opinion and expression, and the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association;
7. (d) Any measures including legislative measures, designed to divide the population along racial lines by the creation of separate reserves and ghettos for the members of a racial group or groups, the prohibition of mixed marriages among members of various racial groups, the expropriation of landed property belonging to a racial group or groups or to members thereof;
8. (e) Exploitation of the labour of the members of a racial group or groups, in particular by submitting them to forced labour;
9. (f) Persecution of organizations and persons, by depriving them of fundamental rights and freedoms, because they oppose apartheid.'

The current protests within the Occupied Israeli regions is so disgusting.

The only thing the protesters want is to be in a liberal secular state, they are rich and selfish (ultimately they just want Sodomy there) with no concern to what they have been doing for the past 70 years and continue to do to the Palestinians. The protesters are only doing it for their own luxury at the expense of the Palestinians.

Whereas Netanyahu and his "government" wants to (and already has been) increase the scope of and speed of the genocidal process against the Palestinians.
They're already at the point where they know they can get away with Hitler-esque genocidal statements against the Palestinians (like the recent "there are no Palestinians, I am a Palestinian" statement made by a high ranking member of his government during a trip to France), the US is still playing kid with the Occupation currently despite their growing tensions in lack of ability to sustain the story they used to have about the Occupation ("It's the only democracy in the middle east and they have sodomy there, they're so kind to everyone").

I'm still trying to figure out what to make of this since Rick is reading from documents that are over a decade old. Does this mean that the Khazarians are conceding that Palestine isn't working out for the creation of their satanic headquarters and going back to where they originated from? If that's the case, there should be some accountability to what they've done to the Palestinians for more than three-quarters of a century:

May they be successful in liberating their country/people from all the oppression they've endured and the increasing attacks/violence from the Israeli Occupation's military/police. They deserve to be able to live normal lives like anybody else but they don't have that luxury:
