DESCRIPTION:

THE LAST APARTHEID STATE


Amnesty International released a report on 1 February 2022 that decisively recognized the state of Israel as an apartheid state. The report covers the lands granted in 1948 by the UN to the state, those conquered after, and those occupied since 1967, as well as over 90 laws and policies enshrining apartheid within Israel and the lands it occupies.

MECHANICS OF ISRAELI APARTHEID


Apartheid is a crime against humanity and a war crime that uses the power of the state, its industries, laws, and the military to privilege one group of people over another at the expense of the other. In Israeli apartheid, the privileged people can prove they are of the Jewish religion, something denoted by genealogy rather than practice or faith. Non-privileged people are all other faiths, with the majority being Muslim, Christian, and Druze.

The privileged people of Israel live in a thriving democracy and consume 80% of the nation's resources despite being barely 50% of its population. The targeted group, the unprivileged, lives in an authoritarian, militarized theocracy with little or no rights and must survive on 20% of the nation's resources.

The privileged people have complete freedom of movement, generous government subsidies, preferential housing, and a network of roads and communities built exclusively for them. By law, these homes and streets are solely for the use of the privileged people, and the discriminated against are prohibited.

Meanwhile, the discriminated against population is denied building permits, new housing, fundamental water rights, the unencumbered ability to earn a living, freedom of movement, complete healthcare, safety, security, and the right to assemble—pretty much everything at any time and upon the government's whim. All "privileges" are given or taken from the non-privileged group at will by the apartheid state. The unprivileged can be attacked without warning by the military, imprisoned indefinitely, and excluded from civil courts used by the privileged. Instead, they must use military courts, which rarely decide in their favor.

Since the fall elections in Israel in 2022, the state has continued consolidating its hold and state-driven terror against its non-Jewish inhabitants to a level of discrimination and violence by a state against a minority that has not been seen since Europe in the 1920s and 1930s.

WHAT IS THE FUTURE FOR THOSE UNDER APARTHEID?


Other than the United States and a few of its vassals, Apartheid Israel is recognized internationally as a rogue state; like its predecessor, South Africa, eventually, Israel will be forced to become a single state with equal rights for all at some point, most likely with a Jewish character and holidays. Israel's only other option is to cease existing, which will come about by force, global condemnation, or internal destruction. Apartheid is not sustainable in the long term, and hasbara (propaganda) can only fool people, even the privileged, for so long.

UPDATED FOR 2024

As of January 2024, Apartheid Israel is now under warning by the International Court of Justice for the crime of genocide against the Palestinian people. The state continues to use the attack of 7 October as a pretext to ethnically cleanse and push the Palestinian population out of Gaza and the Occupied Territories.

Between 7 October 2023 and 1 February 2024 (statistics from the United Nations and Health Ministry), the apartheid state has displaced 1.9 million Palestinians and destroyed over 70% of the infrastructure, homes, health facilities, education facilities, religious houses, cultural centers, and businesses of Gaza with additional destruction in the West Bank. Casualty statistics include:

OCCUPIED GAZA

Killed: at least 26,900 people, including 10,000+ children and 7,000+ women.

Injured: over 65,949, including 8,663 children and 6,327 women.

More than 8,000 people remain missing.

OCCUPIED WEST BANK

Killed: 370+ people, including 99 children

Injured: 4,250+

In Israel, officials revised their death toll from 7 October down from 1,405 to 1,139. According to Israeli media, up to half of those killed during the assault of 7 October were killed by Israeli forces, not militants. The number of soldiers killed or wounded since the ground incursion began in late October has not been released but is estimated at over 400 dead and 2,000 wounded.

Several factions of the government and extremists in the settler movement are openly advocating and celebrating genocide, ethnic cleansing, and the destruction of Gaza to facilitate settler dreams of oceanfront property and an Arab-free Greater Israel. Despite charges of genocide, Israel escalated its destruction of Palestine, further disrupted aid efforts, and fortified its apartheid system. The International Court of Justice gave Israel one month, on 26 January 2024, to improve the situation. As of 1 February, it has arrogantly ignored the court's ruling and actively increased its assault on the civilians of Gaza and the West Bank.
