        Why the Israelíes don’t build some houses for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip?...instead of a lego Tower!

        This is highly offensive to all who have ever innocently suffered as a result of any war. If it is because you reject the basic humanity of Palestinians or have similar reasons for writing this you are racist.

        Well, let them The point is: it is not true Israel doesn't detain people without trial, Israeli Arabs have full rights. Benjamin Netanyahu is in no way comparable to Verwoed or P.W Also Helen Suzman and Harry Schwarz were pro-Israel, I can name anti-aparthied activists too

        Israel absolutely detains people, including children, without trial. A simple google search will tell you that. And Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza have no rights but are at the full mercy of the Israeli state. Do a little homework.

        Well you must do homework Google Oslo accords, they have great autonomy so much so that they elected terrorists to their government I’m sorry but if you elect terrorists, your rights must be curtailed for general safety Also Israel’s constitution prohibits unlawful arrest

        I’m annoyed by the rage on every single mediocre news about Israel. “Israel has a festival” WHAT ABOUT PALESTINE “Israel paves a street” WHAT ABOUT PALESTINE!!!! “Israel builds a lego tower for a kid” WHAT ABOUT PALESTINE?!???!!! Can y’all shut up for a second? Jesus...

        But the question hasn’t been answered: What <i>about</i> Palestine? Why does the vast majority of nations recognize Palestine but the USA doesn’t, despite the numerous reasons to do so ? Why the hell is our foreign policy driven by religious prejudices? 1/2

        Given the above, which do we need more: Approaches to answer the questions or puff pieces about a Lego tower in a city that directly benefitted from the Naqba?

        For the same reason we don’t ask “What about net neutrality” when the topic is a pie eating contest in Ohio. Israeli People built the tower, they’re just people living their lives. Do you expect them to suspend their existence because of your disapproval of US policy?

        Some of the tweets here move from out of context to plain indecency. Are you so blinded by hatred that you cannot properly comment on something that has nothing to do with polotics?! This is simply ugly!
