| I have read the definition and understand it just as well as you. Or more so as you choose to expand it to reference Israel's response to the pogrom against it last October. Oh, and by the way, I am pleased to see you do not condone this. Does anyone ? Anti-Slavery International defines modern slavery as " when an individual is exploited by others, for personal or commercial gain. Whether tricked, coerced, or forced, they lose their freedom. This includes but is not limited to human trafficking, forced labour and debt bondage”. I ask again that you give examples of Israel acting in this manner. If you can't let's drop the topic and concentrate on regions and countries where this is really a problem. According to Statista, a German online platform that specializes in data gathering and visualization, Africa is the region where contemporary slavery is most prevalent. It goes on to say - 'Although contemporary slavery has been a major issue affecting many Arab and Gulf nations, the response of Arab states towards modern slavery shows that efforts are being made to address the issue'. Good news. Israel and the UK do not seem to feature highly in their data on this subject. |
