The Maldives government will ban Israelis from the Indian Ocean archipelago, known for luxury resorts, as public anger in the predominantly Muslim nation rises over the war in Gaza.
Good. We have seen with apartheid South Africa that isolation of a rogue terrorist nation is the only non military way of returning it to the community of somewhat lawful nations. No surprise that Israel was a close ally of apartheid South Africa
There were economic sanctions, there was a huge wave of divestment, but all that was pointed at the institutions of the state - not at its citizens ( like this unfortunate decision of Maledives).
Edit: how much sense would it make blocking black citizens of SA from visiting your country -simply because they live under apartheid?
“how much sense would it make blocking black citizens of SA from visiting your country -simply because they live under apartheid?”
What kind of tortured logic is this? Nobody is saying we’re going to block the Palestinians from traveling anywhere. Only the perpetrators, not the victims.

Meanwhile, you can’t become a citizen in Maldives unless you are Muslim. Hypocritical fucks
I don’t see the hypocrisy. A country that mandates Islam is exactly the kind of country I would expect to expel Jews.

Well that is pitty, because they’ve just blocked 2 millions of Palestinians living in Israel proper - Demographics of Israel, wikipedia
