        “Broadly speaking, apartheid was delineated into petty apartheid, which entailed the segregation of public facilities and social events, and grand apartheid, which dictated housing and employment opportunities by race.”

        How is it not apartheid?

        Edit: wait a minute, why am I arguing with two cookie-based accounts that are pro-Israel and less than a week old on this thread…

          Maybe stop arguing or something? Who doesn’t like Cookies? Like whats your problem?

          Anyway, where is apartheid in Israel? Have you been there? Have you seen any? Or are you just against a two state solution? I don’t really see your point in just putting in the definition of apartheid and believing that proves your point?

          As much as I agree, Chomsky is no trustworthy source on what is or isn’t a genocide

          The man has bent himself in so many knots denying what happened in the yugoslav wars that I’m pretty sure Bosnia would actively refuse to prosecute if someone shot the bastard in broad daylight in the middle of Sarajevo.

        genocide is what some people on both sides want to do and it’s sad that they are influential enough that no resolution of this conflict is in sight in my lifetime -.-
