    Listen.

    Genocide is occurring.

    Israel occupies Gaza. Israel blockades Gaza by land, sea, and air. Israel entirely controls access to Gaza. No one and nothing enters or leaves Gaza without permission by the occupation by Israel.

    The closure and control of Gaza includes clean water and electricity.

    Israel has denied water and electricity to all of Gaza, despite humanitarian pleas over patients dying in hospitals.

    Israel has occupied the Palestinian people for three generations. Israel is an occupying power actively perpetrating genocide in Gaza.

    There is no equivalence. Israel is occupier and Israel is oppressor.

    Condemnation of Israel is not antisemitism, obviously.

            Israel has no right to exist as an apartheid genocidal state.

            Israel is actively perpetrating genocide, and was created out of a campaign of ethnic cleansing, called the Nakba.

                Israel is actively perpetrating genocide, and was created out of a campaign of ethnic cleansing, called the Nakba.

                There is no valid perspective denying events as such.

                    Your objection is profoundly ignorant, and embarrassingly foolish.

                    The occupied territories have combined populations of about 5.3 million. The rest of the country has a population of less than 10 million. If 20% of the latter is Palestinian, there is less than one Palestinian outside the occupied territories for every two inside Gaza or the West Bank.

                    Israeli rights groups have documented civil rights abuses for non-Jewish citizens, and have complained about the lack of access to a secular legal framework.

                    Read about the Nakba.
