There is none mentioned in the article.

That does not mean support for the occupation.

Lots of countries that don't support the occupation have a significant amount of trade with Israel.

A better Israeli economy is generally better for Palestinians as well. Especially for Palestinian citizens of Israel.

Israel is one of the top trading partners for the Palestinian Authority.

The Israeli market is critical for the Palestinian economy's health.

Great

BDS is really making inroads.

I hope that someday Dave, you and your family - every man, woman and child - gets to experience what the people of Palestine live through. Since you celebrate their condition, surely you wish to live it yourself.

Perhaps you need a timeout from IP?

I believe you have said you are not Jewish, Muslim, Israeli or Palestinian ? What's your involvement ?

" gets to experience what the people of Palestine live through"

I thought my answer was very apt reply to Scootaloo .

you listed in order to participate in the I/P group. None that I'm aware of.

as you suggested there was or perhaps you believe should be required for relevance.

Also, you have been informed numerous times by said poster that he is a male, yet you're
determined, evidently, to say otherwise.

I have no gender issues and don't see that it has any bearing on discussions in this forum. Except of course for the mistreatment of women and Gays in the territories and by Israel's neighbors .

But thanks for the correction .

I'm lost... What's the issue ?

it was a sincere wish for you and your family to enjoy all the things you celebrate being done to Palestinians. I think you and everyone you know and love ought to live like they do in Khan Younis. Is that a problem, Dave? I mean if it brings you such joy when it's someone else, i can only imagine the bliss that would fall upon you to live it firsthand.

And I'm male. I get that you regard referring to someone as "her" to be an insult, but c'mon, it's just getting silly.

Enough with these creepy posts please.

And what's "creepy," Dave? I'm simply saying that if you are going to take joy in and celebrate the conditions of life imposed on Palestine, you and yours ought to live under similar conditions. Does that bother you, Dave? Do you have some sort of problem with the notion?

Do you get that Scootaloo ?



But keep trying your just making yourself appear foolish here .






How many time outs have you had?

I lose count...

Do you have a problem with the notion of your family living under the conditions set upon Palestinians? I'm genuinely curious, since you celebrate, endorse, and support such conditions being pressed upon the Palestinians. You must think it's pretty great. Why the reluctance?

I want you to live and enjoy every moment that a family in Khan Younis or Shujaiya or Bil'in or Hebron gets to enjoy, David. What's the problem with that?

So, really, I'm still curious. You seem to take issue with the wish that your family experience in full the sort of life you cheerlead when it's a family somewhere in Gaza. Why is that? Is there something bad about this notion, Dave?

I've seen this before.

You don't get away with it so easy this time.

Match set and point ..


Bye

You want to clap and dance and laugh about what you believe to be a "failure of BDS." Well, BDS is a movement attempting to stymie the ongoing oppression of Palestinians. So by your giddy joy at its perceived failure, i can only assume that you are celebrating that oppression.

And I'm saying that since you find their condition so wonderful, you ought to experience the same. Is that a problem for you, Dave? does the notion of living as a Palestinian bother you? Disturb you on some level? Surely, since you feel such elation for what happens in Gaza, you wouldn't mind your own family living with it, right?

My involvement is that I am a human being aware of the mistreatment of other human beings. That you very obviously believe I should not care about their condition if I do not share a race or faith with them is clear evidence of exactly what goes on in your head.

They're attempting to use refugees - just as they've used them as political pawns for the past 6 decades - to destroy the Jews. Refugees are only a means for BDS to get the Jews, nothing nothing more. BDS'ers would all vote to let them rot another 6 decades in camps if it meant they could be used to get the Jews.

BDS'ers want Israel replaced by something like Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, or Egypt. All failed, miserable regimes. If Hamastan were to replace Israel, that would be just fine with BDS'ers. Such is the rot and stench at the core of BDS.

It's a racist, regressive, pro-totalitarian movement that seeks MORE oppression of people rather than less. A BDS approved Hamastan replacing Israel does nothing to stymie Palestinian oppression.

Sorry, but decent rational, progressive people don't wave their pompoms for racist, fascists movements like BDS.

Serious question - do you have any such first hand experience spending time with Palestinians in the West Bank or Gaza?

Where nothing bad ever happens, all people are equal, only the bad guys ever get hurt, and only as the absolute last resort.

Right?

Huge benefits. Not nearly as much government support that the car companies or banks received in the USA a short while ago.
