    there is no land back. people want a state with equal rights; that’s it. i love how this is always a “concern”: hey i know we genocided you, but what if you retaliate? we can’t have that do the genocide most continue.

    in reality we’ve seen what happens: what happened to the white south africans in south africa? what happened to the slave owners in the united states after emancipation? what happened to them after natives got some or their land and autonomy back?

    nothing. prosperity. but at this point i don’t give a shit if it’s not nothing. israelis proved time and again, yes the population too, not just the government, that they’re genocidal maniacs.

    this is exactly the same as being concerned with what would happen to the nazis if germany gave rights back to the jews. imagine asking “what if the jews strike back? no the camps must stay”.

    just as it was right back then to emancipate the jewish people and other minorities no matter what would happen afterwards, so it is for palestinians now. luckily for the rapists and murderers of the world, the oppressed never turn out to be so genocidal once freed.

        ok; it’s just been a common rhetoric to justify the continuation of the apartheid if not the genocide outright.

          I know. I ‘support’ (for lack of a better term because I have not actually done shit for them) Palestinians. But hamas is another matter and I won’t pretend they are the good guys.
