This is simply a land grab. The problem with the Western Left is that since they don't believe in religion they simply can't understand or get into the skin of those who do, much less those who do so fiercely. So they discount its importance and try to reduce things to a secular argument they can understand. But it IS about religion. If they weren't Jews there wouldn't have been a war when the country was born. If they weren't Jews, the Arabs wouldn't have fled. A number of countries were being created around that time. Israel was just one of them. And sure, the majority of people would be Jews. But no one said the Arabs had to leave. 3 hours ago, marcus said: Palestinians have been forcibly removed from their homes for decades and it is happening to this day where they are literally being kicked out of their homes by Zionist settlers. Yeah, everyone knows. This is mostly because Netanyahu's party relies, in a divided parliament, on the votes of extremist Jews. But the Muslim world didn't care when Syria bombarded whole cites into rubble. How many people were forced from their homes or killed? Nobody cares. 3 hours ago, marcus said: You think what Hamas did was horrifying? Anyone heard of the Nakba? And how many Jews were slaughtered in that war? And in successive wars? How many Jews would have survived if the Arabs had won any of those wars? But trying to excuse barbarism of the present by protesting about barbarism of the past is a lame and stupid thing to do. The past WAS barbaric almost everywhere. Do you want to bring that back to life? Quote

Fxck Hamas. The West Bank is under occupation as well and here is no Hamas there. I fully disagree with you that Hamas is the problem. It's important to note that Hamas is not the problem. They're only a symptom of a brutal occupation and treatment of Palestinians that has been going on for over 75 years. This is not a defense of Hamas. Their leaders are corrupt, and as you say, their leaders, who sit in their mansions in Qatar and who have billions of dollars in assets don't actually give a fxck about the Palestinians. However, a few notes on Hamas, which is important to note: 1) They were originally created and funded by Israel to counter the PLO. 2) The Hamas charter, which was last updated in 2017 is not what the Israeli narrative says. The charter actually says: 16. Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity. 17. Hamas rejects the persecution of any human being or the undermining of his or her rights on nationalist, religious or sectarian grounds. Hamas is of the view that the Jewish problem, anti-Semitism and the persecution of the Jews are phenomena fundamentally linked to European history and not to the history of the Arabs and the Muslims or to their heritage. The Zionist movement, which was able with the help of Western powers to occupy Palestine, is the most dangerous form of settlement occupation which has already disappeared from much of the world and must disappear from Palestine. I would recommend looking at Likud's charter, which is fully against a Palestinian state: The Right of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel (Eretz Israel) a. The right of the Jewish people to the land of Israel is eternal and indisputable and is linked with the right to security and peace; therefore, Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty. b. A plan which relinquishes parts of western Eretz Israel, undermines our right to the country, unavoidably leads to the establishment of a "Palestinian State," jeopardizes the security of the Jewish population, endangers the existence of the State of Israel. and frustrates any prospect of peace.

They're only a symptom of a brutal occupation and treatment of Palestinians that has been going on for over 75 years. Oh, not so brutal as all that, and certainly not for 75 years. Things were much more laid back before the Intifadas launched by the Palestinian leadership. Forty percent of Palestinians actually worked in Israel, and Israeli companies were starting to invest in Palestinian businesses. Then came the Intifadas, and one outrageous terrrorist act after another. Buses blown up, cars driven into crowds. People gunned down or stabbed. Hundred of Israelis killed. The results were quite predictable. It became much harder for Palestinians to leave the territories. IDF monitoring and oversight grew much heavier. Walls and fences started going up. When the Palestinians started building or aquiring rockets to fire into Israel the blockades became much more stringent, witholding cement to make it harder to build their tunnels, withholding metals and other items needed to build rockets But if you weren't building rockets or attacking Israel or planning attacks you were probably okay. You'd suffer some day-to-day indignities at road blocks from IDF people who had come to hate Arabs (with just cause) and who had to be extremely careful with every person because anyone might pull out a knife and throw themselves at them, heedless of whether that was suicidal. The standard of living in the West Bank is roughly equal to Jordan now, but it used to be much better. Gaza is, well, a lot worse because Israel has a really tough blockade there due to it being governed by a party commited to murdering Jews. Quote

It's unfortunate to see that your breakdown of the history of region is missing some really important points, like the Nakba in 1948 and the ongoing land grab. Just in 1948, over 500 Palestinian towns and villages were demolished and the people who were living in them were killed or driven out. Over 600,000 people were displaced. People who now live outside of their homes in refugee camps in the occupied territories and in neighbouring countries. I mean, that's a pretty significant point in history to just not include in your understanding of the history and the present situation. It's also disappointing to see that you're willing to gloss over the conditions of the Palestinians they've been forced to live in, because "they were working in Israel". Yay? Of course you're going to have the narrative you do, when you miss some important parts of history, and the vile conditions the Palestinians have been forced to live in, before and after the first intifada. People need to be a little more educated on things they are so passionate about. I recommend reading a few books on the region. I recommend books by Israeli historians Benny Morris and Ilan Pappe.

And a million Jews were forced out of their homes and villages at the same time. But I know you don't give a shit about that. I've already said I don't support the settlements. I don't think most Israelis do either. But the small, religious parties often hold the balance of power and are the tail wagging the dog. But let's not forget the Israelis forcibly repatriated the settlers in Gaza and the Gazans then destroyed the farms, greenhouses, etc. that they had put up there, then voted in a terrorist group that pledged relentless war against Israel and has carried it out ever since. 14 hours ago, marcus said: It's also disappointing to see that you're willing to gloss over the conditions of the Palestinians they've been forced to live in, because "they were working in Israel". Yay? As I pointed out, the standard of living in the West Bank is similar to Jordan. Are Palestinians living in the land of freedom like Canada? No. Just who else in the Middle East is? And what kind of 'freedom' do you expect in an independent Palestine? You think there'll be equal rights for women? You think there will be an independent court system? Independent police? Free speech? Free elections? No. It'll be another brutal autocratic shithole run as either a military dictatorship or an Islamic state. I mean. have you paid no attention to how Hamas and the Palestinian Authority treat their own people? Quote

It's like you're stitching together Israeli talking points and Zionist Christian memes that are fed to you on Facebook, and then sharing them as your opinion. You should try understanding the history of the region the good old fashion way: Reading and researching the history. Feel free to get this from various perspectives. It's just that it looks really bad when you want to have a strong opinion about something, when you clearly don't know enough about.
