Uhh, I think you meant to say "Hamas' actions are a direct consequence of what Israel has been doing to Gaza"
You obviously dont know your history. This all started when Britain made shady deals with a bunch of countries during the first world war. And even before that Israel was on that land before there was ever a Palestine.
Palestinians have been living there for hundreds of years, it is their home. The Isreali settlers started showing up 70 years ago and forced the inhabitants out of their houses. Do you seriously think that Jewish people deserve that land because of the religion of its inhabitants in ancient roman times?
You do know their were always arab jews in tbe region. Just saying from Morroco to Yemen but with Israel's creation, jews were expelled from every Arab nation. Only Iran let those who wanted to stay in an islamist country.
When were Jews expelled for every Arab nation? I don't think that's true. Like you said "there were always Arab Jews in the region" but they were a minority. The modern Israeli citizens are mostly immigrants though.
That surprises me. I thought sharia law demands that you let peaceful infidels stay as long as they don't practice their infidelity in public and pay the jizyah. I mean, it obviously sucks and is tailored in a manner that infidels are leaving, but there is no forced relocation as in zionism.
If you go by the Quran Jews aren’t even called infidels. They are considered People of the Book. But you are thinking that Arabs follow the Quran devoutly. They cherry pick like all the conservative Christian’s in the west. It doesn’t matter which religion they have they will be hateful against “others” regardless.
the mistake youre making is comparing sharia law to zionism
one is religious rules, the other is a political ideology heavily influenced by religious rules
That was a long time ago, Palestine will NEVER reclaim the land as theirs. Get over it. Just like America took land from native Americans, it is America now. Land is controlled for a period of time by a specific soceity and eventually it transfers to a more powerful society. That is how it works regardless of how you feel.
Being bigger and more powerful doesn’t mean you aren’t a bully. Israel being more powerful and more palatable doesn’t mean they aren’t terrorists. The US is a bad example if you’re trying to say Israel was in the right, because the US certainly wasn’t.
