I appreciate it. <br /><br />Not sure what you think the misinterpretation is? It's true, I universalized Sack's point in the service of introspection more than Sacks does. Not sure why you have occupation in quotation marks? We can use a different word for the WB regime--what would you suggest? Yes, I think you are correct about what "any other nation" would have done: annexation. That is at the heart of the problem. If WB and Gaza are annexed Israel needs to grant citizenship to the people in the annexed territories. The problem is that Israel is exercising/asserting sovereignty over the WB without granting citizenship . . . Not very democratic; not very modern; not very just; not very conducive to peace. <br /><br />As to conclusions . . . that's the point: To think for our own and draw our own conclusions. Conclusions can be more or less justified, but there is nothing "irrelevant" about them--not about your conclusions, not about mine . . . . All the best.

He does NOT say what you claim he's saying and the conclusions you draw from this are completely your own and thus irrelevant. The "occupation" was the only decent reaction to repeated invasions. The other option (and what any other nation would have done, in any other time) would have been annexation. Sack's video is maybe over-simplified - but YOU are plain stupid!Guntaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17419863113223363319noreply@blogger.com
