Those who do not appear before the High Court of Justice may mistakenly believe that legal proceedings are conducted there. The sides make claims, at length, and prove their statements. The judges press them, requesting additional evidence. While we inherited the High Court of Justice from the British, this is no House of Lords. Legal proceedings are conducted in the House of Lords. High-Level Babble is conducted at the High Court of Justice.
High-Level Babble deals with issues that are on the agenda, and repeats banal slogans. You can say whatever you want in High-Level Babble, share your duty free experiences, and draw conclusions based on what you heard on the radio, read in the paper distributed for free on the bus, or heard in a other High-Level Babble. Theres no need to delve deep, and proof is not required. Lively High-Level Babble will conclude with a decision on whoever is the loudest, or an understanding that there are different views, and in the harshest cases it will conclude with the recognition that this is an issue that the Knesset must handle. Oh, yeah participants in High-Level Babble are predominantly male.
The problem is that sometimes High-Level Babble in the High Court of Justice results in verdicts. In a verdict handed down more than three years ago, the judges two males and a female assumed what was best for migrant workers (sorry, the verdict determines that she is not a migrant worker, as there are no migrant workers in Israel, there are only foreign workers), and what is best for them is to work as caregivers without getting paid overtime. Why? Because it is common knowledge that they are poor in their home countries, and they come here, and all of our goodness is bestowed on them, so even if we take a little from them, their lives here are still golden compared to what could have been had they stayed in the decrepit places from which they came. Plus we cant forget the flip side, which is no walk in the park those taken care of by the nurses, their employers, who we feel bad for, because they are in a sorry state. And yeah, let the Knesset deal with it.

(58,724 posts)Have you ever read past the headline?

(30,099 posts)It's your incessant trolling of OP's presented from 972 Magazine, hence...babble.
I have never witnessed any such remarks by you when MEMRI and or PalWatch is posted.
972 apparently does not in any way represent your opinion on Israeli policy...I
think most get that.
So you don't have any insights you'd like to share about the OP then.
Personally, I couldn't really see the point it was trying to make.
MEMRI and Palwatch are jumped on by numerous other posters so I think that is covered.
972mag has some articles I agree with and others I think are ridiculous.
What I find funny is that every single article posted there is quickly posted here (sometimes within minutes) as a new OP.

(45,850 posts)perhaps it has to a degree replaced Ha'aretz which has become difficult at times due to being subscription

(58,724 posts)The subscription thing with Ha'aretz is really frustrating.

(30,099 posts)No, not to share with you.
You have selective comprehension, evidently.
Not jumped on by you, that's what stands out.
Troll all you want, but do not expect it to go without mention.
I don't think it's funny that you do not troll threads supported by PalWatch, MEMERI, CAMERA,
which are posted daily.
But your point of view on the conflict is mutual with other hardliners, just different in style...somewhat.
