Your willfully spreading lies again, but you don't need me to tell you that.
Why don't you remind us what those war crimes were? Since you are being balanced, let us know how many terrorist attacks there were by year since 2000.
And while you are at it, why don't you tell us how many people in total have died in the Palestinian/Israeli conflict? Why don't you explain how so few have died if Israel was so evil? With that said, I don't find any of the violence to be good, but a country has a right to defend itself from terrorism.
Please let me know what the countries that border Israel are doing for Palestinians.
And since you are doing the research, please let us know the death totals in the other countries in the region. How is Libya doing? Or Syria? Or Hamas on it's own people?
1/5th of Israeli citizens are Arab, with the same rights as anyone else, so yah, apartheid doesn't stick either. Are there problems though, you bet there are. But nothing compared to Israel's neighbors.
Regardless of anything you look up, you are going to move ahead blaming Israel for anything you can, which actually makes the matter worse for Palestinians. As long as groups like Hamas are making life worse for everyone, there will be a heavy Israeli army presence. If they only dropped their guns and offered peace? Instead, fools around the world are empowering the terrorists.
