        "Israel is nothing like apartheid South Africa." Yup. South Africa never got US$ 3.5 billion/year from the IDIOT American tax payer.

        Desmond Tutu, the late Ahmed Kathrada, and other South Africans of color who lived under Apartheid would disagree.

        Smart way to hide sentence "Arabs certainly suffer discrimination" under headline "why Israel is nothing like apartheid South Africa "

        Yes, this is true - once in a great while you publish something honest - do a story on #DirtyRice (Carlos Slim said it's fine with him) 😀🇮🇱

        This says it all: "A mass return (of Palestinians) would destroy Israel as a Jewish state, which is the whole purpose of its existence."

        A state that is expressly "for" a single religious group is counter to Western values. Israel may not be identical to SA but the shoe fits.
