In yet another reality-denying ritual of fealty to the pro-Israel lobby, members of Congress absurdly voted to say Israel was neither an apartheid state nor racist. Only a few progressives, including members of the Squad, stood firm in opposing the measure.

Hmm, you seem to be on to something here. So what you are saying is that if you conquer a place, and then take away the citizens of that place right to self-determination and start genociding them, that by definition that is an apartheid state... But how can that be if another state also does the same thing?
