Current Affairs Israel is an apartheid state

I think there needs to be a difference between support for Israel after 7th Oct and support for Netanyahu who has frankly lost the plot with his dismissive comments regarding this latest tragedy….
This is the root of the problem though. There has historically been too much support for Israel, they are now untouchable and do as they like, just as they have for decades.
 
So forgive my ignorance. If the UNHR's resolution on stopping exports to Israel is passed, what's next in the process? Or is that effectively stopping the export? Is it enforceable?
IF and that is a big IF it passes, then UN MSs are expected to follow and comply.

As regards enforcement, that I believe is actually down to shaming Governments that ignore.

I recall working class Dunnes Stores workers striking unpaid for many many weeks in the 80s against their employer selling SA goods.

Eventually they were successful at an enormous personal financial price, and of course eventually apartheid ended some years later.

This rogue regime is massacring innocents daily and if anyone criticizes it, they are anti-Semitic or even neo Nazis.

It is absolutely disgusting - I remember how the world shunned the apartheid regime - rightly. No one in the SA regime accused critics of racism against Boers that I recall.

This regime in its behaviour is exponentially worse. I expect an unfortunate accidental missile attack on my family any time now.

Cheers.

Let's hope it passes then, and also that the IDF haven't accidentally typed in any of our IP addresses into their missile targeting system.
 
The best summary of what happened to the WCK martyrs, from the Polish Foreign Minister:

“The Israeli chief of staff says this was a case of mistaken identity and that they thought there was a terrorist among them.

But even if there was, they seem to have been willing to sacrifice seven innocent people for someone who was not an immediate danger.

These are moral hazards that I do not think are acceptable.”

they have no morals which is part of the problem
