Nice attempt of reductio ad absurdum, but no, not really. Firstly, because ethnic cleansing has to be systematic and has to affect the demographic composition of the zone at hand, secondly, because the Palestinians at hand aren't even vanished from Area C as they return to the spots and set up the tents again.
I simply like to highlight your intellectual dishonesty and encourage you to actually read the sources posted here, so you won't say stuff like:
Even though it should be clear from reading paragraph 40 that the ruling is an order, in particular, an order for the state to reevaluate the Ka'adan family's request for a lease and grant it if no compelling reason that does not violate the prohibition of discrimination based on ethnorreligious origin, as stated in paragraph A, is found.
To think you even praised Morris the last time we discussed this
Anyway, given Kimmerling's tendency to selectively quote from his sources, I will need the original transcript of the interview to have an opinion. That said, Morris is quite clear in his book that he doesn't think the Israelis fought with a preconceived plan to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian population even if there were indeed factions that wanted to do that as I showed some time ago.
Sorry noemon, but the one who has spent quite a few posts insulting someone has been you. Showing you do read selectively is not a personal insult and as such I have no reason to apologize to you because I point this out, so don't expect me to.
On the contrary, I have actually acknowledged when Israel acts wrongly (e.g. like in the case of settlement construction) and have condemned it for doing so.
You on the other hand have never condemned the wrongs committed by Palestinian armed groups against Israeli civilians, or at least the Jewish ones, and engage in all sorts of justifications for their attacks against civilians that you most certainly do not accept when the attacked ones are not Israeli Jews.

"Palestinians are increasing their world numbers so they cannot be ethnic-cleansed." This argument remains as ridiculous as it has been shown to you in the past.

noemon wrote:As for misrepresenting things, you have yet to apologise for all these stuff, plus all the rest you have added in here, like pretending that the petition was a "ruling nis absolute-effective immediately", with a 7-year old delay and at the end of the day be explicit about it, what is it you want exactly? What would make you happy? To say that Israel is a normal EU-style country who respects the rights of all religions and peoples, where spitting is a form of love, where persecution exists because of over-representation? Where non-Jewish Israeli citizens cannot even rent some land? Where the UN is not allowed in the country? Where Christian patriarchs face persecution?
What exactly do you want and especially you who have the audacity to insult others when you have done all of the above and the below:

His deflection by way of bringing up other topics in this thread should be ignored because topics are meant to stay....on topic and deflections by zionists should be seen for what they are.
