Edit: Blocked the author's name, because it's not my tumblr. I didn't expect so many people to misinterpret it and respond in this way.
Edit 2: This is not from the same author, but it's a reply to them. I think it might help clarify the post for those that are confused:
I normally don't worry about usernames on tumblr, but since there've been some really out-of-pocket misconceptions in the thread, I don't want anyone to harass them.
Lmao, what a dumbass post.
"Oh my god what an easy solution, just convince all Israelites to leave".
Oh my god, why didn't anyone think of that yet!?!?!?
This sounds like the thought process of a 14 year old who read their first article on the subject.
That is not what OP was saying at all. I don't know what hypothetical person you're quoting. OP wasn't even talking about any solution. Just stating that the source of the problem isn't that complicated. Sometimes a simple problem has a complicated solution.
Nobody serious is asking for all the Israelis to leave. The solution to one ethnostate is not another ethnostate. We're asking for a new state that truly treats all its citizens equally. And to have a tribunal of sorts to convict the people who committed war crimes. This is not an easy solution, but getting justice rarely is.
But the post says it's responding to claims that there isn't a simple solution. That seems to indicate that OP is trying to present a simple solution, which we both agree there isn't.
Yeah it does. To be honest, that didn't even register with me, because the rest of the post just talks about the cause, not the solution. Also it agrees with my experiences when discussion this topic. Quite a few people say it's complicated and that just ends the discussion for them.
Also any discussion about a solution must address the cause: as long as Israel occupies Palestinian land, they will face resistance.
