Can you look at this map and say Israel does not systemically appropriate land?

They condemned the civilian casualties - what you don't.

"Self Hating Jews" was actually what I thought would be your response.
Surprise, surprise.

I was more reacting to the fact that moderate Muslims were calling for peace with other religions. I'd like to hear much more of this sort of thing from moderate Muslims.

As far as condemning civilians casualties goes, nuances are very important.

Did they falsely accuse Israel of committing horrible crimes? If so then the label Self Hating Jew might be appropriate.

Did they merely denounce the fact that civilians were killed? If so then such a label would likely not be appropriate, but it might be worth mentioning that the Palestinians fabricated many of the deaths.

Yes. I remember reading it last night, though I forget the specifics this morning.

I find nothing objectionable in this statement, and I agree with it.

The entire area is ringed by the segregation wall and there are several Palestinian villages, e.g. Wadi Fukin, Husan, Nahhalin and Khallet Sakariya located within where apartheid policies are implemented by the state of Israel.

I think that most of the supporters get it, all right. They're for the segregation and apartheid.

World opinion (as well as reality), disagree with you, oralloy:
From AP today:

worldIsrael likely to have committed Gaza war crimes: HRW

© AP Photo: Hatem Ali

24 min ago | By AFP
Israel is likely to have committed war crimes in Gaza, Human Rights Watch said Thursday, a day after the army announced five criminal investigations into incidents involving its forces.

The 50-day Gaza war between Israel and Hamas-led militants ended on August 26 after killing more than 2,100 Palestinians, most of them civilians, and 73 people on the Israeli side, 67 of them soldiers.The New York-based rights watchdog said in a statement that in three cases it examined, Israel caused "numerous civilian casualties in violation of the laws of war".

The incidents were the separate shellings of two UN schools in northern Gaza on July 24 and 30, and a guided missile strike on another UN school in the southern city of Rafah on August 3.

The attacks killed a total of 45 people including 17 children, HRW said.

"Two of the three attacks Human Rights Watch investigated... did not appear to target a military objective or were otherwise unlawfully indiscriminate. The third attack in Rafah was unlawfully disproportionate if not otherwise indiscriminate."

"Unlawful attacks carried out wilfully -- that is, deliberately or recklessly -- are war crimes," it said.


(emphasis added)

Israelis, like everybody else, should be called to account when they commit war crimes. Shame on oralloy for his vicious mud-slinging in defense of their criminal acts.

IDF intelligence soldiers: We won't work against innocent Palestinians
Quote:
Officers and soldiers in the IDF's largest, and most elite intelligence unit, known as 8200, addressed a letter to the prime minister Friday, in which the 43 signatories said that they refuse to take part in action against Palestinians or, "to be tools to deepen the military regime in the occupied territories."
[...]
"There is a perception that service in military intelligence is free of moral dilemmas and only contributes to the reduction of violence and harm to innocent people," the servicemen wrote in the letter. "But during military service we learned that intelligence is an inseparable part of military control in the territories."

"The Palestinian population is subject to military rule, completely exposed to espionage and to being tracked by Israeli intelligence," continued the letter. "Contrary to Israeli citizens or citizens of other countries, there's no oversight on methods of intelligence or tracking and the use of intelligence information against the Palestinians, regardless if they are connected to violence or not."
[...]
According to the soldiers, there are many cases in which IDF intelligence prevents just trials for defendants in military courts without ever showing them evidence from the prosecution.

"The intelligence allows for the continued control of millions of people and in-depth inspection that's invasive to most areas of life. None of this allows for a normal life, fueling more violence and putting an end to the conflict further away."

The letter finishes by calling on current and past intelligence soldiers, "to make your voices heard against these injustices and act to bring them to an end. We believe that even Israel's future depends on it."

Walter, Thanks for posting that article. I'm just happy to see more Isralis who are fair-minded and know what is right and wrong in their treatment of Palestinians.

These German-made submarines can carry cruise missiles with a range of thousands of kilometres, and can be equipped with nuclear warheads.

The Civil Administration in the West Bank has stepped up demolitions of Bedouin buildings in the E-1 area east of Jerusalem since April. The area is slated for an expansion of the settlement of Ma’aleh Adumim.

The number of such demolitions in the first eight months of 2014 was higher than in any comparable period in the last five years, as was the number of people who lost their homes as a result, according to an analysis by the Association of International Development Agencies of data compiled by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. Although demolitions were carried out in only four of these eight months (March, April, May and August), more buildings were razed in the E-1 area in those months (35) than in all of 2013 (21). The number of people who lost their homes as a result rose to 156, from 57.

The disproportionate increase in the number of people who were made homeless as a result of the demolitions in the first eight months of 2014 relative to the number of buildings that were razed indicates that a larger proportion of the structures that were destroyed this year were residential. That, as opposed to being used for livestock or other purposes.
[...]
The Civil Administration refuses to give the Bedouin building permits for their existing communities or connect these communities to infrastructure, even though they have lived in this area since the 1950s. Meanwhile, their mobility has grown more and more restricted due to the construction of settlements and roads and the declaration of certain areas as firing zones or nature reserves.

Over the past 20 years, the Bedouin have repeatedly petitioned the High Court of Justice against demolitions. While the court has never ruled on their claim that the demolitions are illegal in principle, it has repeatedly canceled them on the grounds that the Bedouin have nowhere else to live. The construction of Talet Nueima, even if the Bedouin have already announced their opposition to it, will let the authorities claim they do have somewhere else to live.

Outstanding! Very Happy Cool Twisted Evil

Developing the E-1 area will kick the Palestinians in the balls so hard that their testicles will be splattered all over the inside top of their skulls.

It's tricky to understand the significance of the area. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person outside Israel who understands it. But I assure you that this is wonderfully devastating news for the Palestinians.

Very nice news to start my day off with. You have quite literally put a smile on my face.

It's a shame about those Bedouin, but it looks like they're in the way.
