      Yes, but don’t worry. This time we’ll do the right thing:

      Ignore the facts strong enough so we forget that it’s happening by tomorrow.

          I’m not saying it’s right or even acceptable, but let’s use the proper words to describe things. In this case Israel is exploiting members of a persecuted minority, then further screwing them by stealing their wages. And on top of that many of them are probably refugees because of Israel’s genocide campaign. But they’re not slaves according to any of what I’ve seen claimed.

    They’re really going for the ‘violate international law’ speedrun here, aren’t they?

      Wouldn’t call 75 years a SPEEDrun but yeah, it definitely seems like they’re going for the 100% completion achievement…

        Can you say why they won’t do the right thing though, that is the real question. We know they won’t but no one will say why.

          Several reasons. Most of them related to bigotry, right wing politics and dehumanizing of minority groups, but I repeat myself.

          When you don’t consider your enemy human, it’s your own actions that become inhumane as a result.

            Exactly… Their right wing politics is like Christian fundamentalism in the US. But it is also a culture of religious propaganda to see others as less than human as well. Anyways… MSM will call anyone an antisemite that says it outloud.
