It is rigged though. You're the one deflecting.
That's literally what "From the river to the sea means." If you would just say that, we would be in agreement. But no, you deflect and accuse me of being a zionist because I say "ethnic cleansing is wrong no matter what side is doing it, and simply changing the hands of power between two genocidal organizations is not a viable solution."
Only if the likud are the ones saying it.
We antizionists mean "from the river to the sea" as a call to liberate the entire country of Palestine, including at the bare minimum the right to return. The settlers can go back to where they came from or integrate. It's not a call to kill every man, woman or child in the illegaly occupied areas that's hasbara.
It is like saying that usa elections are rigged and not fair because lobbies and oligargh. Anyway Netenyahu is not an ultraorthodox and israel voted for that genocidal monster, israeli president is not either and said there is no innocent Gazans yet your trashy racist country still host him and you prefer to portray anti occupstion protesters as antisemite and pro genoice instead of condemning that visit
I'm not even Australian, so I don't know why you're blaming me for what their government is doing. All I did was provide context for the slogan in question on the OP article. That doesn't mean I support Israel.
This inane campism where "any criticism of one side implies support for the other" is so worn-out. Do better.
So stop defending Australians hypocrisy about Palestine and condemn the country bringing a war criminals to the country. All you did was to provide propaganda talking points .
I have problem with your lies and hypocristy
Not even a little bit. All I did was provide historical context for the meaning of the slogan. It's entirely possible to criticize Israel's actions and western/anglophone governments' support without perpetuating phrases that connote ethnic cleansing.
If you can't take this seriously, then neither will I...
The context is that the slogan means different thing to different people but you want to make anti genocide people bad and justify more autoritarian laws to be added
. You think you are smart with your fake neutrality.
You think you're smart with your making up things I didn't say.
If they just want to be anti-genocide, they should find a slogan that doesn't advocate for ethnic cleansing. And if they don't know the meaning of the slogan then they should be informed. That's all I did, and you won't stop being butthurt about it. Goodbye.
I didn't make up anything . I simply used basic deductive logic.
If you want to prove you are antigenocide answers the questions I asked in the other comment.
They never advocated for ethenic cleansing. You are the one who advocate for it since you prefer the solution where ethenic cleansing will happen. 700k settlers will be removed from the west bank and two millions arabs from Israel because they do not want any chance of arabs isralis one day overgrow the jewish israelis in israel
