creepy. israel is the only contry in the middle east where gays have full rights. virtually all the gay gazans fled to israel when hamas took over.

queers against apartheid? the whole middle east is apartheid. israel is imperfect but hardly apartheid.

let's air drop these gays to saudi arabia, the west bank, jordan...let them walk around in pink spandex and see how long they live.

not very long.

@israelapartheid

You advocate apartheid and oppression; therefore you don't need to change the subject and spread stupid excuses and hate-filled words.

Yes people commit crimes in the name of religions and as an excuse for "Victim to Victimizer" policy!

I'm not interested to discuss with you. We are not responsible for your unhappy life! People like you never stop... No profile - "empty channel" - nothing to say or share... just another ADD - attention deficit disorder!

STOP stalking... bye!

@urbansetter1 yet have you ever consider them as an apartheid state? Palestinians can not work there in rang of occupations (by law!) but Israel is apartheid state. These states orchestrate the UN human rights comity, they had founded the Derbun conference while they are killing their people and minorities at their own countries, not to mention human rights, and you all the so called 'freedom fighters' don't understand that you are nothing but useful idiots.

@urbansetter1 I'll tell you, the double standard that all of you people act by when referring to Israel is the issue. The small country that all it neighbors seek to destroy, that gives citizenship to Arabs, that have Arabs as Parliament members (even when it obvious that they don't want the good of the country), That every street signs in it is written also in Arabic, that broadcast TV programs in Hebrew and Arabic ... This is the Apartheid state. Arab countries deny Ctzship from Palestinians

@michaelygoldberger Who cares what you can do in the muslims countries, that is not what this war is about. We have no business being involved in their business. Killing is not the answer and the USA backs killing. It also loves to deny the general public of the truth.

@urbansetter1 us has nothing to do with palestine

[michaelygoldberger]

Living in Israel I'm telling you that there is no Apartheid, I'm willing to discuss it with you and try to answer any of your question. Before doing that I would like to to ask your self one simple Question: Can you live in the west bank as a declared Muslim gay? you will be murder, can you be a declared gay at any Muslim country? can you be a Muslim and visit for example the city of Mecha? Can you drive a car if you are a woman in Saudi Arabia? can a woman walk alone in the street in S.Arabia?

@Mrdie What is a whole Palestinian state? there's already one its Jordan, and another one its Syria.

The ottoman area of "Palestine" included Israel, Jordan, Southern Lebanon, and over half of Syria.

There is not a single ethnic group with claim to the entire area, because outside of the Jew's, Hashemites, and Alawi's the other enthic groups migrated from Iraq and Egypt at end of the 19th century.

Prior to recent history there were never such thing as "Palestinians" even among Arabs.

Dream On

@DOGMA1138 I'd rather prefer that Israel itself is disbanded in favor of a whole Palestinian state. I'm not a fan of liberal solutions like "Israstine" or a generally unworkable "two-state solution."

As for discrimination and US complicity, here's an example: the US promotes an invasion of Libya because Gaddafi's troops are shooting anti-government protesters, US ignores Shia Muslims in Bahrain protesting against the Sunni monarchy and being brutally suppressed.
