I’m missing your point? Are you saying that polish people had German passports or that Muslim people don’t have Israeli passports?

I won’t argue about other people’s identity, but nationality wise - if they have Israeli passport, they are Israeli in the census data.

Unfortunately the data doesn’t support your thesis. child birth graph Haredi jews are having more than double births than the average Israeli Muslim.

Combined (secular etc.) Jewish birth rate is on par (slightly higher) than Israeli Muslims and Palestinians in Gaza. (This was even before all the bullshit started last year)

And every one forgave him, and even voted him into power.

All because South African Apartheid was fundamentally evil.

People forgave him because he actually changed his tactics, asked forgiveness and sued for peace instead of revenge.

“People tend to measure themselves by external accomplishments, but jail allows a person to focus on internal ones, such as honesty, sincerity, simplicity, humility, generosity and an absence of variety,” Mandela once said, according to a quote at the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg. “You learn to look into yourself.”

What’s going on in the middle east is horrible. But, let’s not change history to fit your narrative.

I guess I just found your wording strange. Plenty of people are interested in different cultures. People read Greek and Norse mythology, Japanese or Slavic folklore without even being from those parts of the world. Do you think that the Conjuring or Exorcist are only scary if you’re Christian? Or the Ring is only relatable if you’re Shinto… Or you can only enjoy Thor movies if you’re pagan…?

Why is it only scary for Muslims?

Technically correct, but your comment makes it sound like the military is actively commissioning movies, which is not the case. When Hollywood wants to make historical or war movies, they have few options:

• Buy the equipment - one military ship or airplane can be more than the whole movie’s budget.
• Prop/CGI - may look bad and doesn’t guaranty to be cheaper.
• Get all the gear for free, loaned out from the military (including training and specialists) - but they get to edit and approve your script.

I wish there were more options for independent and critical movie makers.

One would think that there would be more than just one lawyer who says that… Oh well… :)

Just because you disagree with a definition, doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Every country is culturally diverse, but there’s still statistical common denominator. You have big differences in languages, accents, food, culture in the UK and yet 82% are white British. Same goes for Germany, Japan etc. Every country do their demographic analyses differently, but the point is that they all can have major differences within the same ethic group.

So we should either agree to use the same definition or agree that it has no meaning and not use that word at all.

“Ethnostate - noun. a state that is dominated by members of a single ethnic group.” That exactly makes them an Ethnostate. Mandarin and Uyghur re-education camps is authoritarianism.

The 91% Han Chinese sense…

Mainly 5 year terms, but I can see on the list some 6 and 7 year terms as well… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_term_limits

Not every country has four year terms. Also, elections can be triggered early for various reasons.

Genuine question - what’s your opinion of the Jordanian treatment of Palestinians?

As I thought, you’re not here to debate in good faith with facts. Just spew your version of events and propaganda. Thanks for clarifying.

Are you sure you’re a Marxist? Sound more like an American from the 50s…

Socialism and capitalism are not mutually exclusive.

Capitalism is an economic system where the capital owner holds the means of production and their operation for profit.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but China does have companies that operate globally and are for profit, and some of them are even privately owned.

There are different forms of capitalism. For example: France is mainly welfare capitalism, China is state capitalism (party state capitalism to be more precise) and people would argue that USA is laissez-faire capitalism.

There are also different types of socialism… France for example is a socialist democracy. China is totalitarian socialism.

France is a country with a capitalist mode of production. Markets have nothing to do with the distinction between capitalist and socialist modes of production, the ownership of the means of production and thus also the class in control of the state is the defining characteristic.

Most of the biggest industries in France, from energy to rail, are state owned.

China is socialist. China has home ownership for personal use, but no private land ownership and ever dwindling private ownership of the means of production. Homes for the purpose of living in, ie personal property, are not a means of production, and houses for rent for the purpose of enriching the owner at the expense of the tenant, ie private property, basically don’t exist.

Seems like you live in a dream world. 20% of home owners in China have a second (and more) home/s, and they definitely use it for profit.

Also, leasehold of state property exist all over the globe. It’s not unique to capitalism or socialism or any other ism.

I’m confused… Do you know what the terms that you use even mean?

To get a baseline here… Do you think France is socialist or capitalist?

China has been mixed market economy for decades. You were talking about private property ownership. Are you not aware that China has one of the highest home ownership numbers in the world?

Isn’t China the biggest capitalist country in the world?

I didn’t say it’s a great plan. But it’s better than no plan.

I don’t understand all the down votes. You don’t have to agree with it, it doesn’t even mean that I agree with it… But I just wanted to shine some context to why it’s not ironic to many Jews.
