Yeah, the bourgeois ruling class lives in luxury while common people live in relative squalor. This is nothing new.

Using the living conditions of the ruling class to represent the general state of a country is extremely dishonest.

If Palestine is as well of as you are you are trying to insinuate you would have used the living conditions of the masses rather than exclusively pointing to the most powerful man in the country to make your point.

Wait, if you agree that their "ruling class" is living in splendor. Where is your apartheid argument? Shouldn't you be critisizing the Palestinian ruling class for not taking care of the general state of their country?
