I’m anti-BS from a curmudgeon who takes pot shots at entire countries. Wikipedia and Google are full of “facts.” Understand that, Doc?

“size of the nation, location of the nation, what their economy is based on (or “known” for)” are indeed facts.
My associated commentary stands as my opinion.
Your opinion differs, it would seem. Should I take that as being anti-Israel? Or pro-Hamas? In addition to being pro-Kiwi?

NZ is upset because Jewish people live on lands that the Palestinians ‘claim’ was at one point owned by them.

Yet White Kiwis have no trouble with living on land that actually was owned by indigenous people as recently as 250 years.

Well, the thing is most of Palestinian population went to what now is Israel and Palestine 2-3 centuries ago. It was an Ottoman policy that incentivated inmigration waves to force Islam in middle east. And it worked. A few centuries ago, middle east had more Christians than Muslims. Check now.

So when Palestinian say they are indigenous from Palestine… well, they are as much indigenous as white kiwis in NZ or white people in US.

New Zealand’s non-nuclear policy is either deeply foolish or cowardly.

Neither of them. It’s an small country, and US umbrella has been always there.

Of course, that’s vanishing. There is gonna be a moment where US won’t dare to face China in order to protect New Zealand. That moment New Zealand will be inside the sphere of China, which aims to be the only ruler in the Pacific. And then New Zealand will have to agree with the policies dictated from China, no matter they like them or not.

Meet the new boss, you’ll miss the old one.

Point me, if you will, to NZ’s support of a UN resolution calling for an independent Basque state, Kurdistan, Baluchistan, Moro state, Rohingya state, Free Tyrol, Free Aceh, etc., etc., etc. Point me to the NZ support oif a UN resolution condemning the Chinese invasion and occupation of Tibet, the Turkish invasion and occupation of Cyprus, the Russian invasion and occupation of Crimea and eastern Ukraine.

How about your own invasion and conquest of the Maori? Are you going to declare yourselves occupiers? Label every white New Zealander an invader? Every apartment building owned by whites an “illegal settlement?’

When you’ve done all that, then you can say NZ is not anti-Semitic. I’m not holding my breath.

Perhaps you could find out the term used to define such a double standard.

( sorry for the split post … got excited watching the Cowboys-Packers game )

Which had nothing to do with their government’s policy or history regarding Israel. BS from Froggy.

Not bashing NZ, just stating some facts, if you read them. Kiwis are very close to joining the BDS movement as a nation.
If Gazans with their Mediterranean frontage had built resorts and casinos, Gaza would be the Old World version of Las Vegas, raking in the Israeli shekels to boot.

Meanwhile, I’m trying to mentally steel myself for these “peace talks.” Attacks on Israel tend to have an emotional impact on me, which probably isn’t healthy, but there it is.

On the plus side, the loathing I’m now feeling for the outgoing administration is making me feel almost giddy with enthusiasm for the new one.

That’s a problem only because everyone I know is emotionally suffering because of the election. The inauguration looms for them like the apocalypse of America.

But, I want to burst out laughing, which I have to suppress, out of empathy, and of course, self protection, they lash out.

The looming biblical destruction business is exhausting.
