Jew here. I am appalled at what's going on and given what happened to our people 80 years ago, it's bewildering to see a people get wiped out by the nation that was created from the ashes of this tragedy. It's beyond belief like how does Isreal not see the mirror?

I think your words sum up how most are feeling right now. I feel for you. I can't imagine how I would be feeling right trading places with you.

you have not understood the mind of the mossad and the key puppeteers of the Israeli state at its inception. After ww2 they recognized that god had no interest in helping them nor ability or interest to stop a murderous nazi regime. they accepted that they would do everything and anything possible to create a safe space for Jews. Unfortunately for the Palestinians they were in the way. And they were also members of the same religious group that had been oppressing Jews for over 1300 years by violence. So, the choice was made: the ends justify the means, war by deception, do whatever is necessary. the suspicions about aipac, 9/11, kennedy assassination... it all seemed like conspiracy until you see the end result now, regarding who is really in power and pulling the strings in DC. plausible deniability is the art of espionage and spycraft, assassins and deep state diplomacy

This is very educational and I appreciate the time you took. Question: did they come and take over this land and kick the people out who were living there?

which group, lol. The Americans did it under the banner of manifest destiny, the prerogative of a god given right to take land from others not rated as full 'people' . They enslaved others, and broke contracts with others, and only recently allowed women and 'others' rights and voting rights, which are still circumscribed by disenfranchisement and other institutional means. Each group shares a few things in common, certainly. The 1948 land partition, while technically legal, was a prime example of how legality and morality are utterly divorced in practical reality across the globe. One group with more money and the force of violence at their disposal seems intent on ignoring the rights of an indigenous tenant class , whose own land-ownership was taken by force and economic status centuries ago
