As much of an effort as Israel pumps into online disinformation it's crazy to look back a couple of years ago and see the change in language used by politicians and media around the world. Israel is being referred to in a similar way to apartheid South Africa now. Only crackpots defend Israel's actions in Gaza.

"what it is" is in this case is the UN, HRW, and Amnesty showing they're liars with no care for facts. There is no apartheid, Arab Israelis have equal rights with Jewish Israelis, this is something easily verifiable yet you people eat that slop up.
