Just say you don't know what "liberal democracy" means. It's not utopia, because that doesn't exist. But the USA qualifies — a constitutional system of law and protections for civil rights, and a representative democracy. There are limits to all of this, because this is the real world, not some cosseted college student's fantasy. But Israel qualifies as well, very much unlike their autocratic neighbors, allies and enemies alike.
Israel is indeed occupying the West Bank, though "illegal" is in the eye of the beholder. Japan attacked US territory in 1941 and we fought a bloody war with over a million civilian casualties — all on their side. We then occupied them for 7 years, rewrote their constitution and neutered their self-defense.
In 1967 Jordan, previous occupier of the West Bank*, along with Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon, attacked Israel and were beaten back to what we now . In the process Israel took the West Bank and Gaza (previously occupied by Egypt) as buffers.
(*preceded by the British Empire, preceded by the Ottoman Empire, preceded by the Byzantine Empire — it wasn't an independent territory since before the Roman Empire, when it was Jewish.)
Should we have stopped at matching the 11,000 civilians Japan killed in Pearl Harbor and called it a day? Kept the Emporer in power and allowed them to conquer all of Asia and the Pacific Rim?
The Palestinians were offered their own state in 2003. Israeli PM Ehud Barak was willing to sign his own death sentence in giving up "Judea and Samaria" to do so (because hardline Zionists would have killed him, like they did former PM Rabin). But he saw the future, where Israel's occupation would never lead to peace.
PLO chief Yassir Arafat, the de facto Palestinian leader, was unwilling to take this deal, because hardline anti-Zionists would have killed him. So he walked away, and Barak's right wing political opponents exploited the moment by "visiting" al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, setting off the second Intifada. The resulting violence against Jewish Israeli civilians gave the hardcore Zionist "settler" movement popular clout, and what was once a contiguous Arab territory that might have made a great Palestine became a thrift store jigsaw puzzle.
Anyway there's such a thing as Arab Israeli citizens so "apartheid" — a race-based system — is inaccurate. Or rather, lazy. There are laws that separate Israeli citizens from Palestinians in the Palestinian territories, but that's not exclusive to Israel, nor incompatible with liberal democracy.
Israel is not attempting to starve Gazans. They would simply cut off access if that was the case. Hamas is stealing aid and weaponizing it, which is how they built their multi-billion dollar system of tunnels and purchased weapons, rather than modernizing their country and making it self-sufficient.
Take away the lazy lefty anticolonialist rhetoric and human rights shirt-rending and we're left with a war between Israel and Hamas (and now Hezbollah and Iran). At this point there will be no compromise — they're incompatible societies and belief systems, and too much blood has been spilled, and there's less than zero trust. Both sides are deeply flawed, but I know which one I'm on.

Like Dalì? Buñuel? Breton? (Interestingly enough, the surrealists were mostly fascist sympathizers.)
>Stephanik whose racist replacement theory rhetoric has lead to multiple mass killings against the oppressed minority
I despise Stefanic and her party but not sure what you mean

US soldiers were paid, even African American ones. Though for what it's worth, thanks to segregation (actual apartheid) and wartime logistics surrounding it, very few of them were involved in liberating the camps.
And saving Jews and delivering them justice in the aftermath was hardly Roosevelt or Truman's priority. Otherwise they would have tried and executed the Nazis rather than hiring them to fight the Cold War. Or for that matter, remove the limits on Jewish immigration as they tried to flee Europe in the run-up to the war. Or prioritize bombing the routes that supplied the camps with victims. (Roosevelt was aware of the Final Solution and the purpose of the camps as of 1943, when the Allies were already well on their way to victory.)
In fact camp liberation was a result of the — wait for it — occupation of Europe.
>Cowardly scum.
Plenty of Jews died fighting in the US Military during WWII, before and since. Proportionately speaking, more than many demographics. And you can call Israelis many things but just living there, surrounded by people who call for their extermination — and act on it, is not cowardly.
