    The ratio was presented by a Lord in Parliament yesterday. Didn’t catch his name, he was some sort of historian. I’m sure you can find it in the record, it was in session. The absurdity of calling Israel an apartheid state when Arabs sit in Parliament, on the Courts and in political office, while the street signs are Arabic and Hebrew is utterly absurd. Do you know any Israeli Arabs? They’ve been among the loudest supporters of Zionism out there since October. That statement alone identifies you as an absolute joke.

      I hate to break it to you but your 2:1 ratio, is off by a factor of 10. Israel being a genocidal aparthied state ruling by IJC, Unicef, UN and many. Also guess who are the loudest supporters for China “unification” with Taiwan? Yes Taiwanise people working for the CCP. Same for Russia and Ukraine, and 99 other examples around the word. Finally, the only joke here is calling Israel a democracy because it’s actually objectively 100 times better to live under the worst dictatorships and murderous oppressive corrupt governments of the middle east than to a palestinians living in Israel

        Two Jews three opinions is a phrase that goes back to before Islam had been conceived. It’s hardly surprising that there are Jews speaking out against themselves. What’s more surprising is the overwhelming support for the state of Israel by the Palestinian Israeli population. I suppose they of all people understand how good they have it in Israel.

          Interesting that you say “jews speaking out against themselves”

          Those Jewish people about are speaking out against israel. The state of israel and Judaism are not the same thing, as much as zionists will try to convince you otherwise. Speaking against israel is not speaking against judaism or Jewish people as a whole.

          And yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are Palestinians living in israel that are loudly declaring support for israel. They don’t want to be hurt or killed, so they say what they think will keep them safe.

          Although I couldn’t find much info about that, do you have any source or more info?

            The safety of Jews is absolutely directly tied to the existence of Israel, the state of Israel is directly linked to Judaism which is why Jews daily prayer starts with a call to Israel. It’s why all Jewish holidays are based on the agricultural cycles of Israel. An anti Zionist Jew is absolutely working against their own interests.

            That you think Arabs in Israel don’t have the ability to speak out against the government demonstrates your ignorance here, they’re in the streets by the thousands protesting weekly.

            Muhammed zoabi is a good follow if you’re interested in Arabs who support Israel while being critical of their government and policies. He is great at breaking down complex concepts although he’s a bit out there at times.
