If illegal settlements are NOT an invasion then I don't know what is..
Once setup the settlements are then surrounded by exclusion zones and armed guards..
Strawman.
Again. What country did Israel invade?

Strawman
How can a fact be a strawman?
Israel continues to illegally steal land for settlements and brings in troops to protect construction and the ongoing settlements once built..
If that's not an invasion then what is it ??

Oh my God, the world isn't a perfect place? I have a good idea, let's smear Israel even though it offers the best living conditions and personal freedoms to it's people in the entire middle east. If you want to talk about gross injustices please go to the rest of the middle eastern and African countries that are controlled by sharia law. This link might open your eyes
Rape victim
And these things happen all the time under sharia law LEGALLY. You're ignorance really should be a crime and as you try to make Israel out to be the bad guy they are surrounded by barbarians like this. So yea, let's hate the most democratic and free state in the middle east that actually offers it's people great oppurtunities and living conditions so we can have another extreme Islamic state that will offer nothing more than more violence and slums. Great idea!

To people who do not belong nor are owned by governments;
The entering and forcing out of homes, with jail time or death as a result for not following the orders of mercenaries wearing soldier outfits - is as an invasion. I don't care if it's a country or a home being raided - when people are forced out of their homes with violence with death or jail time as a result for disobeying.
It would seem however that you are the one building straw men(notice the plural) to avoid answering this question or addressing this fact. (the one written above about the settlers and their ways of dealing with people who don't wish to leave their homes).
The straw man you employ in this instance is by claiming there is no country being invaded. Why? Because you as a person do not recognize Palestine as a country and neither does the Israeli regime.
Take good notice of these tactics people, they use it on the internet, on tv, in newspapers...everywhere. The same tactics and arguments are used when they have to avoid talking about an issue; for instance, this guy avoids the argument about the invasion and tries to get away using semantics.
Deny ignorance.

You know, last time I asked I didn't get a response. How much are you receiving in financial incentives to continue posting such obvious troll comments? Or are you doing it from a purely idealistic, albeit delusional, viewpoint?
I just wonder how long more the mods will let you keep doing what you do. It's obvious to me, as well as to some other posters that you are...how do I put it...not posting your own opinion but an opinion you get through the electronic mail.
Semantics? No semantics here, I want honesty. So will you provide, or will you join in on beating around the bush?

Yeah, sad tactics IMO..Semantics rather than facts..

That is not an answer.

It is a strawman because you are not answering my question. You are putting up a defense that has nothing to do with the question.
A third time, but I will make it easy for you. What country did Israel invade and steal land from by building up settlements?
