Comments on: Apartheid State of Israel Carries Out Holocaust http://www.newuniversity.org/2006/05/opinion/apartheid_state_of_israel85/ Wed, 23 May 2012 07:23:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: A http://www.newuniversity.org/2006/05/opinion/apartheid_state_of_israel85/comment-page-1/#comment-4419 A Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:11:57 +0000 http://newuword1.thomasjbaker.net/?page_id=4543#comment-4419 Criticism of a country means finding fault with its policies or actions. I criticize Israel all the time. I criticize Avigdor Lieberman's propose loyalty oath, which would dictate that only non-Jews who want to become Israeli citizens have to swear an oath to Israel. That is amazingly racist. At the very least, it should be changed to encompass anyone who applies for Israeli citizenship (which is something that every Western country does.) This is an example of criticism. Blatant racism towards a country, in this case the anti-Semitism exhibited by the MSU every year, is supporting actions/organizations that would destroy that country (Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, etc.) WHILE you "criticize" said country, as is criticizing it for certain actions/policies and remaining silent when other countries replicate those actions/policies, a.k.a. holding it to double standards. I have never once heard an MSU member agree with anything the state of Israel has done; and when you argue that the very existence of Israel is up for debate, that is racism, too. Please work on actually doing something to help the Palestinians instead of constantly attacking Israel or raising money for terrorist organizations. As it is, the MSU is only convincing everyone of how racially charged and hateful its leadership is. Criticism of a country means finding fault with its policies or actions.
