ABC Newsreports this morning - Secretary of State John Kerry did what for many of Israel’s supporters is the unthinkable and used the A-word: apartheid.

Apparently for many Jewish groups, the suggestion that the Jews only State is, or even could be, an ‘Apartheid State’ is unthinkable.  But far more interesting is the fact that the Jewish Lobby in America believes that it can dictate to the Secretary of State what terms to use and what words to avoid. “Any suggestion that Israel is, or is at risk of becoming, an apartheid state is offensive and inappropriate,” AIPAC’s statement read in part. And it didn’t take long for American Shabbos Goyim within the Congress and Senate to weigh in. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., released a statement urging Kerry to apologize to the Israeli government and people. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, suggested Kerry shouldn’t even have the chance to apologize, as he took to the Senate floor to call for the secretary to step down.

But in truth,  Kerry is actually slightly wrong - Israel is not an Apartheid State. It has never been so and never will  be. Apartheid is a racially driven system of exploitation. But Israel doesn’t want to exploit the Palestinians, it wants them gone!  Israel is racist, nationalist and an ethnic cleanser. The Jewish State is not an Apartheid state, instead it  follows the Nazi model of ethnic purity. That realisation can really upset the progressive Jews.
