Israel no longer "occupies" the West Bank because Jordan abdicated it's control over the territory in 1989 and made a separate peace with Israel in 1994.

Since NO STATE OF WAR EXISTS BETWEEN JORDAN AND ISRAEL, Israel is no longer an occupying power.

Didn't your mother teach to share? What the hell are you smoking? Pass some to your buddy Sarman.

I like your premise, If Israel is not an occupying force, therefor one person, one vote. I like it. I like it a lot. This is the democracy that we should be unleashing. Oops, but in reality it is not. Is it? Thank you for proving what can never be proved. Basically, what you are saying is that Israel is an Apartheid Regime.

Thank you again, for debunking the myth that we support Israel because it is the only democracy in the ME.

As for the rest of your post, it is a copy and past from Nadine and I am not interested. Actually the rest of your post confirms your first premise. I love it.

Holy sh1t, I can't contain my joy. The Palestinians are, based your argument, Israelis. Wow, what took so long?

When are we going to tell our best friend to treat all its citizens equally? When are we going to tell our best friend to implement a true democracy, one person, one vote?

I guess your new book did not go through rigorous screening, did it? You should report the flaws to wzo.org.il

Hawk, those are your interpretations. The international community (under UN international laws) considers Israel an occupying power, both the US and Western Europe included. Why does the US consider Israel an occupying power and you don't??
