    Even without knowing who did it, if Muslims had stopped trying to genocide Israel, murdering them and literally wanting to push them into the sea for decades, we certainly wouldn’t be here today, or at least, maybe I could feel sorry for them. I’m not justifying Israel’s past attacks on civilians, they were horrible, but Palestine had it coming.

      No, history began with the British exit, and also omits a dozen wars of aggression against Israelis and Hamas’ charter that states their mission is the eradication of all Jews everywhere… Oh, right, Arafat was a peacemaker of course too.

      I mean, they both had their fair chances of accepting a peace deal, but for some reason that didn’t work out. Anyways, there’s ony one of the two countries currently occupying territories of the other, and that’s where my bias come from, but yeah, they’re both murderers.

        not really, unless you mean the Camp David talks that demanded the Palestinians have less autonomy than Poland under the USSR

          Whoever told you that lied about something you could easily falsify and already knew that you wouldn’t check

          Consider what that says about how they view you.

            ima be real with you here, don’t you have a flat earth convention to go too? blunt absolutes are rarely conducive to understanding reality

              I’m not the one who brought up blunt absolutes.

              The person who lied to you is who you should be upset with, not me.

          I mean that’s exactly my point: they were not able to negotiate a peace deal in good faith, which means they preferred war instead. Note I’m not familiar with that specific episode. I was thinking e.g. the assassination or Rabin by one of his own people
