If you read 1 tweet - this should be it. Israel was never and will not be an apartheid stateReader comment on item: Does Europe Have No-go Zones?

Our children are still little so this is more or less half their lives apart. It was a great holiday, but I feel I have to mention apartheid, because being in the country, makes this accusation seem so much more nonsensical. Before we even left Ben Gurion airport we had to take a PCR test. Myself & family were swabbed by hijab wearing Israelis. No surprise to my wife who worked as a nurse in Israel... We went to the Baha'i Gdns & Science Museum in Haifa too, saw dinosaurs and a Nesher Jet. Jews, Muslims, others...Israelis all enjoying it. The kids loved it. Seeing people of all races, ethnicities etc having fun together isn't what I think of when I think of 'apartheid' Maybe Amnesty International's UK Campaigns Manager will convince you; "At no point in our report (Israel's apartheid against Palestinians: Cruel system of domination and crime against humanity) do we say "Israel is an apartheid state"" I'd say you can't make this shit up, but... In fact their whole report started to fall apart as soon as it was scrutinised by the press IMO Shortly after the release of the report (that doesn't claim Israel is an apartheid state), Amnesty UK admitted that it "exhibits institutional ...." Israel is criticised as a reflex, it's criticised for what it does and doesn't do, it's criticised for its existence and would be attacked whatever Just wander around the country and see for yourself that it's not an apartheid state...not that Amnesty ever claimed it was one.
