The Jewish settlers didn’t live in Palestine, they lived in Europe and then moved to Palestine to steal the land. They’re white.

Just because one ancestor a dozen generations ago lived somewhere doesn’t mean you have a right to evict the actual people living on that land.

I don’t agree on wording in the first paragraph, but do agree with the second paragraph.

What now? Evicting all 8 millions of Israeli to make Hamas happy?

How about ending apartheid and making a multiethnic, multi-religious democratic state from the river to the sea? Israelis can become Palestinian, they don’t need to leave.

have you ever seen an israeli or a palestinian?

Neither like eachother. And honestly for good reasons. Good luck with that idea.

TL;DR this is basically like going “why dont the USSR and US just become one state” during the cold war.

Hmm which state is apartheid again? The one that is 20% Arab where they have full rights… Or the one that is 100% Arab where anyone who is not like them is killed with extreme prejudice?

Palestinians didn’t live in Palestine during that time, either. they migrated when everyone else did.

A ton of them just converted from Judaism. This idea that Arabs flooded into Palestine after kicking all the Jews out is racist revisionist history.

That thinking is like believing you have the right to expel the people that lives in the house your grandmother lived on but left when she got married. But now the house is yours because “here lived my family”.

Yeah, but then add a dozen or more generations. Not your grandma, your many times removed ancestor from before the printing press or some shit.

I said grandmother to show an example that can’t be used with the “but it’s an historical thing”.
