It's not a legitimate country, and it never was
Land was stolen by the UK and US, ostensibly to assuage guilt about the holocaust, but the reality is that the two world wars changed the global economy, and suddenly oil was king rather than gold
The west wanted a permanent presence in the middle east, and they were willing to do horrible things to make sure they had it
“Israel is the largest American aircraft carrier in the world that cannot be sunk, does not carry even one American soldier, and is located in a critical region for American national security.”
— Alexander Haig
I recommended reading Balfour and Churchill. They didn't do it because they felt bad about the Holocaust. They did it because they hated Jews and Palestinians and wanted to get Jews out of Europe.
Even Hertzel said that antisemites would be the greatest allies of the Zionist movement. He was right.
I hope it is a flawed poll along the lines of Yes Minister. We should all hope so.
Wishful thinking. I'd tell you exactly what they are thinking, but Lemmy really seems to frown on reality.
But honestly it's not hard to figure out.
The survey author publishes in the Journal of Genocidal Studies. Hardly impartial so fingers crossed that he asked leading questions and the results are skewed. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/14623528.2025.2456321
That doesn't seem very neighbourly
I'm not surprised at all. It's a theocracy, and muslims are the enemy religion. I'd think there'd be a similar desire for muslims to support the expulsion of Israelis to Europe. Again, theocracies banding together against an enemy religion.
They're both the same. Stop giving either of them weapons. They'll just use it against the other. Stop supporting religions, as this is the endgame. Religious genocide over fictional gods, which in this case, is the exact same fictional god. :rolls eyes:
Stop spreading this BS narrative. The struggle in Palestine is not about religion, it’s about colonialism. The zionists have no reason to be there because they’re not indigenous to that land while Palestinians are and their right to exist as a people in their homeland and on their own property needs to be restored.
