Israeli activists tell Hawking to yank his Intel chips over Palestine

Re: genocide

What genocide, which reporters did we kill and what UN resolutions have we ignored that are not one-sided? Don't forget it was Nasser who declared war in 1967 by closing the Tiran Straits to Israeli shipping. If the 'Little King' of Jordan had not been suckered into the war by Nasser, Israel would not have needed to defeat the Jordanian army and we would not be 'occupying' our historical homeland of Judea and Samaria. Jordan would still be the occupiers with the consent of the Brits only, as they were from 1948 to 1967. Before you write rubbish, please, please read some history, so you don't brabble.

Re: Politics and science

Israel does not practice apartheid. I am a former South African and have 1st hand knowledge. Even 'The Economist' a magazine which cannot be claimed to be pro-Israel, has stated emphatically that Israel is NOT an apartheid state. The barrier is to stop Palestinian terrorists from crossing into Israel and killing Israelis, preferably Jews. Most, if not all anti-Israel propaganda, is latent antisemitism.

Re: Is it really surprising....

Our government sits in Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people.

Re: sandbox

What 'constructive criticism' can Hawking give, he is a physicist and knows squat about the Israel/Palestine problem, because if he did he wouldn't have been so gullible

Re: Why

The Land of Israel has had a continuous Jewish presence for the past 3000 plus years. Besides the Palestinians could have had a state anytime from 1947 until now.
