Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
you're still infiltrating a security device even if the people who put up the walls or locks did so illegitimately. that's a real weird revisionist prescriptivism you've got there.
Clearly NPR was not talking about infiltrating a wall or lock, but about infiltrating Israel.
Not sure what you mean by that.
the specificity you're demanding for "infiltrate" to apply is prescriptivist, and it's revision because it does not reflect common usage in american or commonwealth.
anyway, you're still infiltrating ~~a security device~~ something even if the people who put up the ~~walls or locks~~ fortified border did so illegitimately.
The comrade was being slightly pedantic in objecting to the use of the word infiltrate to make a point, but you are just being an annoying debate nerd for no reason. What do you think you are achieving with this?
i disagree with the pedantry, and i think it's not debate to rephrase what i said when asked for clarification
