Doing what’s right is using the US’ leverage to stop the killing, not accepting ‘some refugees’. In fact, Netanyahu would love nothing more than to have everyone from the Gaza strip move elsewhere.

My great grandmother was an indentured servant for 4 years. That was the only way she could afford to emigrate from Europe.

The right thing to do would be to force Israel to adhere to what the UN says plus what Israel had previously agreed to.

In most cases, longer. Jews had been in Iraq more than a thousand years before Islam was even developed.

First of all, a whole lot of people have done that very thing for a better life

So do you think Ukranians should leave and let Russia have their land?

Secondly, those Jews have been there as long as Arabs have.

Factually untrue.

The only reason Israel was created was Europeans countries still wanted to get rid of their Jewish populations.

So they sent them to the Middle East and told the people living there to GTFO.

Edit:

Also while nouns are used for ethnicity, adjectives are appropriate for things like religion.

If they were Arabs, then they’re from that area.

They may be Jewish as well. But saying anyone that’s Jewish is from the Middle East just isn’t logical.

There’s this notion that modern Israelis are essentially just Europeans who invaded after WWII, which is simply not true.

While the Zionist movement largely did originate in Europe in the late 1800s, the majority of Israeli citizens today are not of European ancestry / Ashkenazi. The majority are what’s called Mizrahi, coming from Middle Eastern Jewish communities that were forcibly expelled from Arab countries during the 50s and 60s. For instance, Ben Gvir, the current Minister of Defense (and to be clear, a complete little shit), is from an Iraqi family. In 1948, there were roughly 150,000 Jews in Iraq, making up nearly 40% of the population of Baghdad. Today, there are estimated to be less than five. Likewise, in Yemen, there were roughly 50,000 Jews, maintaining a presence that goes back well over 2500 years. Today, there may be one single Jew left in the country. The same situation happened all throughout the Arab world. The departing Jews generally had to flee their homes without any significant belongings, since their property was often confiscated. In Syria, for instance, a 1964 decree prevented Jews from traveling more than 3 miles from their homes, banned them from owning land, banned them from working in the government or in banks, banned them from leaving anything as inheritance - which would instead be seized by the state.

This person thinks that because the Jews who emigrated to Israel after the Holocaust were from Europe, their grandchildren who were born in Israel are somehow not deserving of living where they were born and should “go back where they came from”. It’s the same old dog whistle

You understand that there are literal former American citizens living in the occupied territories, right? Like, when you hear about settlers in kibbutzs a lot of them are former Americans and Europeans.

Israel is a European colonial project, there were already people living in the area before Israel was created in 1940s.

No one has to leave, Zionists just need to give up on having an ethno-state.

A two state solution is entirely unrealistic, the only real option that ends this is a single state in which Palestinians have equal rights.

Removed, civility.

They could, and I know this sounds crazy, stop funding a genocide and human right violations. But it’s america, and we all know their history… Except a lot of americans it seems.

This is not righting a wrong if he’s still giving Israel money. This is like paying for a bandaid because the guy you keep giving a bunch of knives to is stabbing people. It’s a small damage control move when he himself is funding the damage in the first place.

He’s not trying to right a wrong, that would be cutting off Israel from money and weapons. Instead of trying to keep Netanyahu from getting arrested
