Does this guy get paid every time he smears the normals with “right-wing” in this screed ?

Assassin piece on Israel.

"The usual chicken-or-egg question arises at this point. Was it extreme Right-wing politics that drove Israel to its current dilemma, condemned to perpetual subjugation of its Arab population under the leadership of a political thug like Binyamin ‘Bibi’ Netanyahu? Or was it the need to keep the Arabs down that drove Israelis so far Right? "

Anti Bibi BS! I've never heard of the source. But is sounds like a leftist liars den. "The Pioneer"? (it is an Indian Newspaper)

HISTORY

The Pioneer was founded in Allahabad in 1865 by George Allen, an Englishman who ran a tea business but whose sharp mind ensured the newspaper exercised great influence in British India. Not only that, Sir Winston Churchill was The Pioneer's war correspondent while author Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), in his early 20s, worked at the newspaper office in Allahabad as an assistant editor from November 1887 to March 1889. The newspaper remained a primarily Lucknow-based paper until 1990, when it was purchased by the Thapar Group, under L. M. Thapar, who made it a national newspaper. Mr Mitra carried on the baton, not just fanning out into the heart of India but also to the east and coast. His two terms in the Rajya Sabha helped him develop an insight for a macro-oriented view of India and its place in contemporary dialogue.

Never heard of this antisemitic author “Gwynne Dyer” but I thought demographics has become destiny in Israel as far as rhe steady rightward shift i.e. the more religious especially recent immigrants have far more kids while the secular leftists thankfully don’t reproduce (thankfully this is the case in America as well).

<< perpetual subjugation of its Arab population >>

Total BS, as is the entire article. Arabs hold at least a dozen seats in the Knesset. They also have equal voting rights, and in fact Israel is one of the few places in the Mideast where Arab women can vote.

The only legal distinction between Jewish and Arab citizens is that the latter aren’t required to serve in the Israeli army, yet many still do.

Yes, for the most part the two populations are segregated, but it’s not govt mandated. They CHOOSE to live apart.

It is a hard fact that the centre of gravity of Israeli politics is now far to the Right, and still moving rightwards. This will remain so, with or without ‘Bibi’

OMG! The Rubes!

There was a tempest in a small teapot recently, as Human Rights Watch (HRW) …

Screed dies right there.
