Netanyahu argues for controlling Arab and Palestinians daily lives. And Netanyahu says BDS is bad. Meanwhile Lieberman says BDS is good.

A very confused government.

Lieberman supporting collective boycotts!!! For me, it is an incentive to do more shopping there.
5. What about the Haredim in Jerusalem
Eileen ,   Herzliya   (12.10.17)
Yes...let's boycott Jerusalem too! After all, there are Haredim throwing rocks at POLICE, protesting, rioting etc.

7. Don't cede Wadi Ara to the PA.
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv   (12.10.17)
Don't cede Wadi Ara to the PA. Just expel the Arabs from Wadi Ara to either Judea & Samaria or Jordan. Raze the Arab squatter towns in Wadi Ara to the ground, and build JEWISH towns there instead. Israel is after all a JEWISH state.

So you consider it to be "intolerant" and "racist" if the Jewish natives, who have lived for 4000 years in their native ancient homeland of Israel, to reclaim their homeland, but it's "tolerant" and "non racist" if Arab imperialists, land thieves and squatters such as yourself Joseph, steal our homeland?

So you're saying that Black Africans and Indians were "intolerant" for reclaiming their homelands but the British and the Europeans were "tolerant" for stealing Black Africa and India? Aha, perfect logic.

So Jewish natives are "occupiers" and Arab imperialists and newcomers are "natives"?

So Jews have lived in Arab socities for well over 1000 years, and accepted their status as a foreign minority, but Arabs cannot accept their status as a foreign minority in Israel? The whole world must speak Arabic and have an Arab majority population, and unless the non-Arabs agree to such conditions, then they are "racists"?

Ok, in that case Joseph, well over 90% of the human race is "racist", since most human beings are not Arabs and have no intentions of becoming Arabs either!

You have democratic rights in Israel, but no national rights. If you want Arab national rights, then you can pack your bags and settle down in one of 20 plus Arab states. If you take Arab nationalism for granted but violate Jewish nationalism because it doesn't include non-Jews and Arabs in Israel, then you have fundamentally misunderstood the purpose of ethno-nationalism.

Ethnic nation states ARE NOT MEANT for all it's citizens! They are meant for ONE ethnic group, and its THEIR ETHNIC NATIONAL identity that defines that country. Minorities in nation states have democratic and human rights only. If the minorities want THEIR national and ethnic identity to define a country then the minority is free to move back to their respective homelands.

No nation state could have ever existed using your twisted logic because then every minority group in every nation state could have declared their host nation's national identity to be null and void. It seems you Arabs are either content with Arab nationalism or "sharing" countries that are not even yours.

But, to hell with Jewish nationalism and non-Arab nationalism, right? Only Arab nationalism matters?

You take Arab nationalism for granted and ignore Jewish national rights in Arab states, but quote "democratic reasons" for denying Israel its Jewish nationalism and Jewish national rights.
