Do not downplay the term Apartheid like this. The conflict between Israel and Palestine and the clear mistreatment of civilians is bad enough without lying. About 1,6 million Palestinians are Israeli citizens, they number about 20% of the total population and live and work anywhere and anything in Israel without segregation. Some thousands of them volunteered for the Israeli army and are fighting against Hamas. None of that would be possible in an Apartheid state.
War is bad enough; there is no need to label everything with misused terms like „Apartheid“, „holocaust“, „genocide“.
What you imply is a common misconception. Puritans did not flee to America in the early modern period because they were religiously persecuted. They fled to America because they were not allowed to religiously persecute others anymore. They were scolded because of their religious intolerance not because of their religion per se.
You are delusional.
