“If you are truly worried about Jews being slandered…”
‘Worried’? I’m not the least bit ‘worried.’ But I call a spade, a spade — and accusing the Israelis of ‘stealing everything’ from the Pallys is indeed a cheap slander.
It’s bearing false witness against your neighbor.
“…stop calling Israel a Jewish state….”
Well, that’s what it IS — by the grace of God.
And you’re just gonna have to live with that fact.
“[N]othing could possibly slander Jews worse than equating them with the ‘fake Israel’ or the demonic horde running it.”
Anybody can make an allegation. Takes a little something MORE than that, however, to make a case.
Takes a fact. A verified one.
And you’re — characteristically — a trifle short in that department.
“As for the Israeli…’settlements’ being legal…Here is what the UN has to say…”
The UN can say the moon is made of green cheese. Doesn’t make it true.
Res 2334, like all UN resolutions, is a political instrument, issued by a political body — not a legal instrument.
And even THAT never received the endorsement of the United States.
Meanwhile, there is THIS — which DID come from the United States:
Q: [D]o you think, as President Carter has said [1978 State Dept legal opinion], that the Israeli settlements on the ‘West Bank’ are an obstacle to peace?
A: No, I do not believe that they are. It is possible that they might have made it more difficult [although] that’s a judgment decision I won’t make. But the charge by this [Carter] Administration at the time those settlements were first started, that they were ‘illegal,’ was false. They are ENTIRELY LEGAL under the United Nations Resolution 242…

And in the four-&-a-half decades SINCE Reagan’s remark, not one single, subsequent president — to this day — has YET presumed to reverse that holding.
Entirely legal.
Moreover, in November 2019, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo voiced a similar disagreement w/ the 1978 DoS opinion, saying civilian settlements in the administered provinces are “not, per se, inconsistent with international law,” and not an obstacle to the peace process either.
You’ve got nothin’, sport (besides a lot of bluster).
