I understand why it would be bad if he said Israel IS an apartheid state. That’s not what he said, despite Wingnut bullshit to the contrary. What he said is the plain fact. Absent a Two-State Solution, the only path Israel can take and remain a Jewish state is to become an apartheid state where a majority of its residents have second-class citizenship.

And the black family structure analogy? Horseshit.

Also Kerry’s remarks give the Palestinians even less motivation to compromise. Kerry’s remarks will be interpreted as motivation to keep up the terrorism and lack of compromise because ultimately Israel will end up getting the blame and become a world pariah. That may be true but it’s an unhelpful mindset.
