There is no ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Israel Dave.
Jim made it up.
That is why he has been unable to substantiate his wild assertion.

"What DO you mean by 'cleansed' anyway? How about giving us an idea WTF you are on about."

Why not ask Jim what he meant by it and why he can't produce anything to back up his claim?
Why is all your shit directed at me when all I have done is challenge an accusation we all know is false.

OK. Jim what did you mean by ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Israel?

I have asked. Now, Keith, what DO you mean by 'cleansed' anyway? How about giving us an idea WTF you are on about.

I'll not hold my breath for a straight answer.

This thread is called cultural genocide.

People who exhibit any sense of the word culture will shake their heads in disbelief at the savage views put forward in this thread regarding the Middle East.

Berlin used to have a wall. Perhaps Mossad took some photos of it when abroad assassinating opponents and brought the idea home. Bulldozers with "punishment" written on them provide the rest.

And you know what is most sickening? The appalling comments by Keith A Hole of Hertford and "ashamed to put my name" braidedbeardedbruce to the effect that if you decry Israeli terrorism that you must support Hamas and their own brand of warfare.

Those are the views of apes, not intelligent members of the human race.

This is very depressing. Keith is desperately clinging on to some technicality of his own invention. He is ignoring the immorality of what Israel is doing. Which, Keith, is to make life impossible for Palestinians in the areas in which they live but which Israel desires for itself, so that they will be forced out. They will be forced out of the Israel that the Israeli regime aspires to. Keith, you seriously need to address the moral issues here instead of clinging to your ridiculous "from Israel" nonsense. Israel does what it thinks will be accepted in the eyes of the west. If Israel thought it could get away with dumping every Arab on its soil.outside its border, it would. We know it would and you know it would. Kicking Palestinians out of areas Israel wants for settlements, and kicking Bedouins out of the Negev by destroying the villages in which they live, is ethnic cleansing. Ethnic cleansing of Palestinians out of the Israel that Israel wants. Focus on the morality issues, Keith, and leave your technicalities at the door. .

More evidence of Israel's ethnic cleansing:

"This must have been a trying week for all the people who wrongly believe that Israel's prime minister is an unabashed anti-Arab racist: Over the past few days, Benjamin Netanyahu's government has unveiled not one, but two major initiatives to benefit Israeli Arabs – initiatives that even the far-left Haaretz, which loathes him, deemed "praiseworthy" and even "revolutionary."

Here's how Haaretz's report on the first initiative opens: "For the first time ever, an Israeli government team has documented the extent of the land and housing shortage in Israel's Arab communities and proposed recommendations for ending it."

Though the housing shortage has been one of the Arab community's biggest gripes for decades, no other prime minister in Israel's 67 years of existence has done much about it. But Netanyahu's last government not only advanced the establishment of the first new Arab city in Israel's history, it also created an interministerial task force to draft more comprehensive recommendations, which were presented to his current government this week.

Moreover, as Haaretz noted in a subsequent analysis, these recommendations are nothing less than "a revolution." Inter alia, after decades in which the borders of Arab towns remained unchanged despite a sevenfold increase in population, the new proposal finally recommends expanding these borders to provide Arab communities with more land for residential construction.

The second initiative deals with education. Here, too, the previous Netanyahu government took significant steps, adopting a five-year plan to boost funding for Arab schools by a billion shekels (about $260 million). But many pundits predicted it would be scrapped by the new education minister, Naftali Bennett of the rightist Jewish Home party.

Instead, Bennett not only announced its continuation this week, but added an important new element. All preschools – Jewish and Arab – will henceforth be entitled to a second aide, rather than having only one teacher and one aide for classes of up to 35 children. But in well-off communities, the government will underwrite only 50% of the cost while, in poor communities, it will cover 90%. As a Haaretz analysis noted, most of the poorest communities are Arab, so this decision will give a huge boost to early-childhood education in Arab towns. That prompted the paper, which loathes Bennett as well, to headline its analysis, "Naftali Bennett: Unlikely champion of Arab education."
