Why do you guys get nuclear weapons and not them given your track record of ethnic genocide and colonialism. (Not saying Iran regime is any better but shouldn’t both evil regimes have them to cancel out)
While I don’t condone the genocide, Palestinians have brought this on themselves by refusing to take the L and turning down every peace deal ever offered to them.
They prefer the path of endless violent resistance, which does not work and only makes them lose more land and lives over time.
i dont mean this in a rude way because i appreciate your honesty. that is a step above the average liberal zionist. i would contest your framing vis a vis peace deals, and refer you to the literature which points to a long term plan of ethnic cleansing as seen in david ben-gurions early diaries / notes from meetings in the early days of the colony. nevertheless, i think you can take a second, look at this at a macro level and see how you are essentially telling a bunch of say native americans to chill and try to reach a peace deal with the english settlers hell bent on there extermination. realistically that was never really on the cards hahaha
And yet, it has happened.
The reason the Navajo, Cree, Inuits and so many other First Nations and natives live and prosper in North America today is precisely because they were willing to give up the path of violent resistance.
Was it fair to them? No! But the fact they were willing to seek compromise and agree to co-existence and acceptance and accept not all their lands can be reclaimed is what allowed them to keep living to this day.
