Top House Democrats reject Rep. Jayapal's comments calling Israel a 'racist state'

[Beastly Boy]

58. We are not talking about poor choice of words here

Attempting to brand Israel a racist or an apartheid state is not an error in judgement. It is an intentional and persistent manipulation of narrative that is designed to generally denigrate the state of Israel with deliberately ill-fitted allusions that do not legitimately apply to Israel. It is not even an attempt to address any causes of the Israel/Palestine conflict or contribute to its resolution . It is one-sided propaganda designed to obfuscate, not clarify anything, pure and simple.

And trying to change the subject to avoid addressing Jayapal's comment is not helpful either. None of it prove or disprove what Jayapal said on the record and later, however disingenuously, apologized for.

Curiously , the link you provided underscores how easy it is to misappropriate the term race in reference to, in this case, Israel's diversity. You are citing a source that measures racial diversity in response to my comment about Israel's political and cultural diversity. Your source is irrelevant to the subject I raised. This is just as inappropriate as calling Israel an apartheid state when addressing issues that have nothing to do with one racial group oppressing any other racial group.

And don't tell me you misspoke.
