  • I think wining about land that was conquered (as well as who's inhabitants populations would've been decimated by disease upon contact with Europeans either way) very similarly to other places throughout history doesn't have much merit. I'm sympathetic to tribes who have had their sacred land promised to them and taken away (like the Black Hills). In terms of what American Indians are entitled to have back, I think cultural artifacts have a stronger argument than land, regardless of what they care about more.

  • Long story short, there is no proper response besides dissolving the country and leaving. The Israeli government is incentivized to wipe out Palestinians, and whatever decisions they make are to that end.

  • There is no 'proper response', as Israel existing is the reason for the conflict.

    Isreal's proper response was to call them terrorists, garner international support, and continue their genocide against Palestinians.

  • ^^ this guy tried to tell me ancient occupants of the region (who are almost certainly are not his blood ancestors) have a better claim to that land than the populus living there for the last several thousand years. Don't engage, he's clearly having a bout with psychosis.

  • Nothing justifies that, but every justified war effort in history have included atrocities. War is hell, and the way you look at it, especially when the Palestinian population has been forced to violence through almost a century of wanton oppression, is shortsighted.

  • Ill give you my two cents:

    Palestinians are justified in fighting Israel until that occupation is no longer considered a country, however, the Hamas are committing atrocities against civilians, leading many to refer to them as terrorists. The argument for the Hamas (not all Palestinians) is that Israel has committed atrocities against Palestinians for almost a century, while being backed by the most powerful countries in the world, and that retaliation from the Hamas is justified.

    Personally, I'm happy to see anyone resisting Israel, and don't believe any political compromise (although preferable) will cut it except the dissolution of Israel.
