No, not a joke. See my comment below, on my comment in the Guardian:

>> Talk of "the occupation" is an attempt to create a fallback position for Israel. It only refers to the occupations of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. It implies that the war of 1967 was worse than the ethnic cleansing of 1948, which created the state of Israel. It's all occupation.
A reasonable argument, whether you agree with it or not, backed up by a serious historical work. But just because it implies that Freedland's position supports ethnic cleansing, they deleted it. Just as quickly as they delete reasonable comments critical of feminism.

I used to think comparing Zionists with Nazis is ott hyperbole. Then I read Thomas Suarez's State of Terror , a massively well-sourced account of the horrific violence, murder, rape and ethnic cleansing by which the Jewish state was conceived (including violence against many Jewish holocaust survivors). Also, collaboration with the actual Nazis. More than I'd realised.
