it's hilarious that you're attempting to accuse someone *else* of not knowing the history of the place.

first off, you've obviously never *read* the balfour declaration. here's a hint, champ - it says nothing about a state. when in 1939 britain decided to clamp down on jewish immigration they pointed to the existence of a jewish *community* in the levant as evidence that they fulfilled what the balfour declaration intended. this is because britain was never interested in a jewish state. they weren't really interested in an arab state either, they wanted british control. and whenever some british commission previously put out a report saying some form of partition could work out it would end up in the trash because the government felt it couldn't actually work at all. even when they finally threw their hands up and tossed the whole thing over to the UN to solve, the foreign minister himself said he hoped the arabs won the day.

second, european jews do not make up the majority of israeli citizens. they don't even make up a majority of israeli *jews*.

>>No one could be against both, could they?

lol no, you don't give a shit about what's happening in yemen (or darfur or anywhere else), because the people dying there can't be used as an avatar for anti-zionism like the suffering of gazans. it's all performative.

why is "the colonial powers taking over" the magic cutoff time? britain was against a fucking jewish state.

all of your numbers are arbitrary, designed solely to apply to the jewish state vs anyone else.

and don't tell me how much your heart bleeds for the suffering gazans, KSA has been deliberately starving millions of people in yemen for the last decade, killing hundreds of thousands, and neither you nor anybody else gives a single wet shit because "no jews no news"

so, no number, just "whatever screws over the jews". gotcha. good to know there's a magic number where indigeneity somehow disappears but it's so secret you can't say what it is.

the establishment of israel was one of a whole mess of new countries and population transfers that happened post-WWII. some 20 million people were forced out of their homes and villages all over asia and europe then and a whole slew of new countries came into being. nobody gives a shit about any of that, except in this one tiny place where for some reason it's the biggest crime in human history. i wonder what it is about this one population that's different that makes this so, i just can't put my fuckin' finger on it.

give me a number, dogg. what's the cutoff.

mind you, the jews never really actually left. they didn't come back in large numbers because well, second class citizenship and all doesn't exactly encourage immigration.

>>Ha, yeah. If Israel has claims on the land Palestinians live on then what does that mean about the rights of Native Americans and the land the rest of us Americans live on as their claim on American land is based on far more recent history than that of the modern Israeli

it means they have a fucking claim to the land that's legit, just like the jews have to their ancestral indigenous homeland. whether they take it or not, like the jews did, depends on the situation on the ground, not on whether some rando POS on the internet thinks it's a legit claim or not

>>The Oct 7th attack didnt come from Jordan or any of the surrounding countries. It came from the people Israel hasnt allowed to have any kind of self determination for well over half a century.

hezbollah has been launching missiles at northern israel out of lebanon for decades. at a certain point you have to admit that these people just really, really hate the jews
