That's a horrible statement to make about a nation that seen thousands of years of genocides, pogroms, discrimination and displacement. You're just saying let's continue with that.

You have to understand that Israel is there and will be there, and you need to work from there to find a solution which also accommodates Palestine ( as an independent country ). There is no future for Palestine, however, where Iran-funded terrorist organisations are at its helm.

And, say, Turkey isn't?

I'll just open with saying that I agree with your main point. Of course Israel is an ally of US, and US uses Israel to further their own gains in the region. The same can be said about literally any country in the world, though. It's just the military & economic power of the US, and going against is a dangerous game to play. I am not defending or saying that US is good, I am just stating the obvious. Even China is not always able to stand against the US.

Now to continue to my main point:

I’m not going to pretend to know enough about those conflicts to answer your question, but I’m not exactly sure how it’s relevant.

The point I was trying to make is that Israel-Palestine conflict is hyperfocused on, in a region that is extremely unstable and seen dozens of civil & international wars, coups & human rights abuses over the last few decades. Fighting ISIS killed thousands of civilians and displaced, at least, several million people. And while ISIS comitted many crimes against humanity, Russian & NATO bombs have also killed thousands of civilians. But people don't even know this. And don't seem to care.

Should I also talk about Kurds, who were also fighting that war (against ISIS) and despite that Turks are literally borderline genociding them whenever they get the chance, these people do not resort to terrorism?

It makes you wonder, why in this sea of instability, wars, coups and human rights abuses everyone hyperfocuses on one particular state, which is primarily inhabited by people who have been historically persecuted, killed and displaced consistently for thousands of years?

Are you disagreeing that Black September happened or what?

Thanks for this elaborate attempt at a discussion. Telling someone to fuck themselves instead of engaging with their point is kind of satisfying to see, especially from someone claiming to have the moral upper hand.

And when Iran's Khamenei says that "Israel should be wiped out" -- that is not a "want to exterminate Jews"?

So, if I extend your logic, if ISIS is America's fault ( which in many ways it is) we should have left Iraq and Syria to succumb to it?
