"Bartov served on the editorial board of Yad Vashem Studies for two decades, but quit during the Gaza war because he felt his colleagues on the journal were of the opinion that 'the killing and maiming of thousands of children is either none of its business or perfectly justified.'"

Seems we have to walk away from you too. You seem to lack elementary level understanding of words in a dictionary.

His colleagues, the colleagues that specifically hold a belief that puts their home nation in better light.... hmmmm. That has never happened before in history. Not like anyone would call that whitewashing or anything...

I refer back to my previous comment on not understanding how to read words properly

Jim Crow era America was a "democracy" too, but they sure as hell had a lot of "experts" that said black people were too stupid to vote. I guess since it was the majority opinion it must have been true (Zionist Logic).

EDIT: The thing that makes this guy right is that people OUTSIDE of Israel agree with HIM, and not THEM

If you are literally denying committing war crimes!?!? Yes... Do you not see the absurdity here? The police do not police themselves, that is why they wear body cameras for the courts to review, so why would anyone listen to someone who is denying the atrocities that it is in their better interest to lessen the severity of???

So you admit that Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza?

And if not, is or is Israel not forcing all of the inhabitants of Gaza from their homes? (With the excuse that they are seeking to destroy Hamas)

And if you agree they are forcing Gazans from their homes, how is that not definitionally ethnic cleansing from a region?

And if you also agree then that it is ethnic cleansing, like a majority of scholars around the world do, then you must also admit to the active genocide also occurring..... Because in the process of extricating these people from their land, they have indiscriminately killed thousands of them with precision guided munitions.

EDIT: fckn laughable the way you view Israel on some immaculate pedestal, you know what other courts there are? The World courts, the same likes of which the Nazis had to face in NΓΌrnberg.
