"Why single out Israel?"
I doidn't single out Israel - you did, you told us how well the Bedouin people were treated in Israel - a reminder:

"....likewise Bedouin."
You then went on to give your approval for them being moved onto a toxic site - you tried to deny it was toxic, even though youy were given an Israeli Government Department report on it's toxicity if it gets inbto the water supply, told of the likelihood of it exploding (also a Government department report), and the inadequate fencing that would allow children to enter grounds that would remain toxic for year, if not decades.
Your pointing out Britain's deplorable record on Travellers rings a little hollow after your opening a threads in an an (unsuccessful) attempt to disprove one of the most common acts of prejudice in these islands.
"Why Israel"
One more time:
There is no country that has a worse record of massacres than Nazi Germany - does this make all massacres less than that in any way excusable?
Israel's behavior is the question here - not anywhere else.
You do not judge the behaviour of one country - show me why this is not true.
"If you do, it comes out the best by far."
No they don't - show me one country that has taken part in the slaughter of 3,000 refugees.
You have been given the death toll of this present conflict: Israel's continuing slaughter of civilians in this conflict is unequalled by that of any other protagonist in the Middle East
And to repeat my request:
There is not a time limit on any massacre - IF THERE IS PLEASE TELL ME WHEN IT CEASES TO BE A RELEVANT ISSUE - PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE TO AVOID THIS QUESTION
