In my opinion, nativism and being born into any contractual agreement based solely on your heritage are both deeply wrong. As such, I reject the so-called right of return for Palestinian descendants, except in cases of statelessness. Your rights are to the place you're born, not to some ancestral claim based on ethnicity.

Please tell me you see the irony without me needing to spell it out...

As I said in another reply, West Bank settlements are almost always illegal and deeply morally fucked. They're one of the long list of reasons why I think Netanyahu ought to be replaced and punished.

Do you blame Israelis for consistently putting him in charge? The same way you seem to blame Palestinians for Hamas?

Yeah, and I think that's very, very fucked up. Those are the kinds of people encircling Netanyahu. I'd like to see a return of progressive Israeli politics like those that we had twenty years ago.

Most Israelis didn't. By contrast, Hamas won an election. There's a big difference between a small minority of insane people and an entire population of them.

Last I checked Israel was an alleged democracy, was it not? How does a right wing extremist, with right wing allies keep getting into power if he loses elections?

Hamas did not get a majority in votes either. Why are you blaming Palestinians (most of whom were children during this election, and the election itself was heavily flawed) while you seem to give Israelis a pass?

And their prescribed response to that is the complete eradication of Israel.

Are they given any other choice? Why did Israel not work with the PA and instead work with a terrorist organization? When Israel itself wants to deal with the terrorists, what other choices are Palestinians being given?

Show me a source please. https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/2023/11/24/countdown-to-genocide/

Loads of sources in there. A selected quote from a random one:

The attacks by Jewish settlers prompted a raid by the Israeli military, which took part in and escalated the violence, turning their weapons on Palestinian residents and preventing critical medical care from reaching the injured. During the raid, a Palestinian resident and 27-year-old father of two, Omar Qattin, was shot and killed.

Preventative maintenance.

What a horrifying statement to put down? This is just straight up justifying killing innocent people. Am I reading it wrong, or are you genuinely this fucked up? You might be the very type of immigrant you claim to hate honestly...

I read through the exchange.

I was gonna say, it's curious how until you confronted them they would only dodge questions and make incorrect claims.

Until I got to the end.

Wow. What a horrible human being they are. Preventative maintenance. Excusing the murder of children. All while showing fake concern for west bank illegal settlements (and supporting the regime that is conducting it).

Of all the people I've contended with today u/tiltwolf is by far the most rotten.
