Israel was given to the Jews as an 'apology' for their treatment during WW2.

All Western nations agreed. All Arab nations declined.
Guess who got their way?
I think founding Israel where it is was a huge geopolitical mistake, but I don't know how that knowledge helps at all today when that mistake is completely solidified.
It helps so people remember why Palestinians are upset in the first place.
Yeah cool motive still doesn't justify a charter explicitly supporting the murder of all Jews in the world
I think hostility towards trespassers is kind of recognized across the world
Doesn't justify murder of Jews across the world of course, that's not ethical. But it is understandable why Zionists deserve some flak for occupying land they stole with the help of Western colonists
Really? "Ethical" is your word of choice?
What word would you choose?
Would you describe the sun as being "not very cold"?
So you don't like the word choice, why not debate my argument besides nitpicking semantics?
Would you debate somebody who casually employs nazi dog whistles?
Maybe, depends on how seriously they'd listen to me despite disagreeing.
What Israel is doing to Palestinians is ethnic cleansing. Pulling the victim card for decades of colonialism is stupid. Theyre the occupiers in this conflict, it's not equal. Every jew doesn't deserve to die for this either, but they certainly aren't the victims
Does the existence of such a charter justify the killing of civilians?
What about the blockade?
