Mark Twain didn't like Jerusalem, so Jerusalem isn't important to Muslims. Can anyone actually follow the the logic here?

Also, does Israel simply not teach the history of the region they're living in? You'd imagine that they'd know about why Saladin was so adamant about conquering Jerusalem and why he was so generous during the war in order to not damage the city. I thought that Israel would teach about Saladin since he allowed Jewish people to resettle the city after his conquest, but now I see that any history before Zionism isn't really taught. Even the history of local Jews living peacefully living in the region for thousands of years in harmony with their neighbors is a danger to the Zionist project.

He might have let Jewish people resettle, but he was an Arab Muslim, and they can't be having ideas about Jews and Arab Muslims living together peacefully in their theocratic ethnostate.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
