Oh they're slaves now?
Interesting.
See in a slavery system, owners profit from slave labor.
In the case of Israel, it sure sounds like in every conceivable way Palestinians are a drain on their resources.
Seems like the aid money Israel spends is strictly charity.
And what prompted those blockades, btw? Do you recall? Do you think it might have had something to do with the endless terrorist attacks?
I'm not saying the Palestinians are slaves... I'm just saying that Israel is largely responsible for the circumstances there now... just live slavers were responsible for the circumstances of the slaves.
There's a reason it's called an "open air prison." We have to feed our prisoners too, but I don't think anyone sane considers that investment "charity. "
Terrorism justifies retaliatory attacks against terrorists. Not keeping 2 million civilians poor, starving, and hopeless. All that making people hopeless does is make more terrorists.
Calling it an "open air prison" is propaganda, not fact.
And saying all Palestinians are terrorists is...?
I'm not saying all Palestinians are terrorists.
I'm saying that Palestinians elected terrorists to represent them.
