Am I understanding this: Israel was founded by people simply moving to an already inhabited place and declaring it to be theirs?

Savages!!! Hahahaha...

Tonto: Hmmm, woman mountains rise above

Lone Ranger: Yes, Tonto she certainly has large breasts

Tonto: Ugh...ungawa

Good short interview with Yuval.

Israel always hits hospitals when it is on a murder spree. Schools too. And homes.

Here's one from 2021

This is what you get when you force Trump out of office. Senseless slaughter everywhere is great for special interests. Bad for kids.

There have been Jews in that exact piece of land for over 3,000 years. Joshua enters the land about 1300 BC. Jerusalem is the capital of Israel / Judah in 1000 BC. The temple of Solomon (Jewish king) was built around 900 BC. The This is about 1,500 years before Islam. So, yeah. Jews have lived there (along with others) for over 3,000 years. They are one of the “indigenous peoples”.

Trump is the center of your world.

Trump is not the center of the world.

Pretty sure both sides aren’t thinking of him at all.

Sentence in bold is most likely not true. B Netanyahu has a history of playing current U.S. President against previous U.S. Presidents. B Netanyahu likely has told someone in Biden administration, Trump would have done THIS for me or Trump would have done THAT for me.

While this is not accurate, the UN had no business deciding the internal affairs of Palestine. Foreign interference is what it is, no matter what lipstick you put on the pig.
The UN was new then, but it's beyond obvious by now that it's an empire's club. Big countries have vetoes and the little countries pick sides between the big countries. Palestine had no chance of fair treatment.

It IS accurate that the UN approved the two state division of Palestine with Jewish and Arab sections.
You seem to be under the position that "Palestine" was an Arab country that was arbitrarily split up by big countries in the UN. Palestine was not a country but an area controlled by the Ottoman empire for centuries until they collapsed during WWI. In the aftermath of WWI the British controlled Palestine rather than the Ottoman Empire.
On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 181 (also known as the Partition Resolution) that would divide the geographical area of Palestine (controlled by the British) into Jewish and Arab states. Now you can possibly argue that the proposal was not a fair division of Palestine but there was there was no Palestine country being broken up..rather an area called Palestine that was going to be turned into two states.

Hey OP - You are dead wrong!

Jews have continuously lived in that area for thousands of years. Even if you completely discount historicity of the bible, there's no denying anthropological and archeological evidence that Jews and their ancestors are indigenous to the area. Just like what is happening right now, there have been a lot of wars and conflicts so the Jewish population has waxed and waned but anyone who says Jews are non-native to the area and "occupying" is not someone to be taken seriously, either ignorant or a hate filled bigot.

And since this is a running forum I want to add I saw there is a marathon in Israel and when this conflict settles down I want to go run it.

About 45,000 or 49,000, 1916, 1917. As I stated, minor league baseball park population.

Thanks for supporting my claim about Jews living continuously in that area even though you are wrong about the population size!

OP made the claim that "Jews came from all over the world" and took over the "Palestinians" land to create Israel which implies that Jews are not indigenous to the area which is 100% not true. I love studying history and there was no way I was going to let that lie go unchallenged.

The world supported the relocation so they didn’t have to deal with the problem of anti-semitism in Europe. Like… “here, we’ll give you this land, go away and leave us alone. Doesn’t matter if someone else is already living there.”

and now you have a bunch of American kids flying over there as tourists every year on “birthright” while the Palestinians who were actually born there live as second class citizens. Of course, if you point out how messed up this is, you’re a bad person!

Once again, the Alt Left is on the wrong side of history.

no notes, the op is just playing dumb or actually just decided to ignore the fact that palestinians were yet another ancestor mixed with an invading group that settled there… also important to state that palestinians are in fact genetic cousins to jews mixed with arabs but nonetheless they literally share a significant portion of DNA

You are factually incorrect so I guess that makes you a bad person. It really doesn't matter to me though if someone believes a false narrative because I just don't give af. However, as far as the current situation goes the one thing I do know is that if Hamas takes over Israel that would be really really bad. If Israel annihilates Hamas and sends them to the virgins that would be really really good. Hopefully civilians don't get hurt but if they do Hamas is 100% to blame since the rules of war are clear that you can't use human shields or store weapons and troops in civilian areas.

Before, but it isn't about him, The Point is they should have put The Jews in a Place where they would not be surrounded by people who hate them and many in the area want to kill them.

Okay video. Not very clever fellow.

Bit racist and tendentious to frame Palestinians as Arabs, particularly for a historian who knows about Jewish Arabs. Worse to posit that pact between Israel and Saudia Arabia or other normalisations is relevant to destiny of Palestinian aspirations for homeland / peace.
