Not apartheid?

Israelis and their government refer to the wall as a "separation barrier."

In Afrikaans, "apartheid" means separation (literally "apartness").

However in Israel, apartheid and separation are not really apartheid and separation. That is, separation exists, but it doesn't really exist. Or rather, separation does exist, but it doesn't really REALLY exist.

It all depends on what one's definition of "is" is. Clearly someone who claims that an item that exists actually exists is anti-Semitic. That is, if you claim that something that does not exist does indeed exist, then you are guilty of non-existence denial, which is the same as holocaust denial. Therefore to say there is apartheid in Israel is to engage in holocaust denial.

If you selfishly believe your own eyes, rather than the righteous testimony of Jewish victims, then you are guilty of a hate crime, and should be prosecuted accordingly.

Hopefully that clears up the entire controversy.
