Finkelstein vs Troy - Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid 2-2 Democracy NOW!

[Odedisra]

Finkelstein is lying his head off. In one part of the video (min' 4.00 - 4.20) he claims: "The second Intifada begins September 28th 2000. Between September 28th 2000 and March 2003 there wasn't one Palestinian terrorist attack".. then, immediately (min' 4.20 - 4.29), he contradicts himself, claiming: "The Suicide Bombings began 5 months after the beginning of the Intifada".. Of course both claims are false. To see how false - take a quick look at "List of Palestinian suicide attacks - Wiki"..

Israel, a Jewish state.

America, a Christian state.

I find it telling how zionist commentators all seem to have a similar demeanor, of an agitated, blustering liar.

Oslo was a sham, it was played out in a way that a magician would do slight of hand.

The question is simple. It's either Jewish land or Arab land. Since 1938, the Jews were prepared to compromise over the land, but the Arabs have never accepted Jewish national rights on ANY part of the land, no matter how small. Even now, Abbas has categorically stated he will never accept Israel as the Jewish state. If not, then what are we "negotiating about?" Never heard of any ancient Palestinian state. The word "Jew" comes from Judea, as the word "Irish" comes from Ireland

Please list the nations that recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

The UN Partition Plan, UNGAR 181, authorized a "Jewish state" and an "Arab state" in Mandatory Palestine as soon as the British left. But I will agree that the Left Wing Jews who founded the modern state were more interested in creating a socialist state than a Jewish one. I am happy that finally Netanyahu has demanded recognition of Israel as the Jewish state as a requirement for ending the conflict. Otherwise, what is the point of Israel if not a Jewish state? That's its identity.

Notice how one sounds intellectually honest while the other sounds like someone being "careful" about their words, manipulative?

God, Finkelstein just ripped him a new one. Owned.
