Who even needs investigative journalists with hidden cameras when there's Israeli state television

Political scientists say an apartheid state is a democracy? I don't think so.

Or, political scientists say......what's the other option?

You've almost got it.

You think all political scientists say that Israel isn't an apartheid state? Sounds like BS to me.

All of them? No. The overwhelming majority of credible, professional political scientists, though.

"The overwhelming majority of credible, professional political scientists"

Are you sure? Can you list some of these?

Ample examples of the contrary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_and_apartheid

@JustZ@lemmy.world Oops should I just assume you were overwhelmed by the fact that political scientists, diplomats, and human rights organizations CALL THIS AN APARTHEID STATE?

Here is the link again if you missed it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_and_apartheid

It's just Wikipedia.... surely you will now admit you are wrong? Or will this all just be another "collection of reports" that you don't like?

Of course I'm expecting a long block of text where you dodge each point and beat around the bush and fail to admit the crimes of Israel.
