As long as:

Stolen land is given back, and criminals prosecuted,

Sure.

[–] Googlies@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

You want to prosecute criminals responsible for an insane amount of death? Believe it or not, anti-Semitic.

You want justice for people whose lives have been systematically destroyed over 70+ years? Believe it or not, anti-Semitic.

This person actually believes they're being brilliant suggesting a one state solution but is that really for the benefit of the Palestinian people? Or is it to further push save Israel agenda since everyone can now see their true nature.

Israel is the most anti-Jewish state since Nazi Germany, and Palestinians are semitic.

There you go again, connecting Israelis to mean all jews.

I have never, ever heard of someone calling for the deportation of Israelis. I think anyone who wants that was probably anti-semitic already and has taken the objectively horrific actions of the IDF as a reason to hate Jewish people in general.

I have never, ever heard of someone calling for the deportation of Israelis.

Calling for their in-place deaths is not a lot better. You have heard that one several times, right?

Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!

With climate change picking up the pace in the last few years, not sure how much longer this area will even be inhabitable.

This thread is going so "it's bad to call for the genocide of israel" i had to re-read the meme.
It says "expell israelis to europe"... it doesn't say "kill'em all", wtf is wrong with this thread? Or am i missing something?

And no, a one state solution is not possible, as shown after over 70 years. Unless that state was to be ruled and controlled by the UN and all other military forces completely dismantled - so, not gonna happen.
It would be slightly less unrealistic if the UN was to enforce the Green Line, ensuring the West Bank and Gaza are entirely in control of Palestinians.

Both fail 'cos the UN has no teeth.

Full embargo on israel, especially on weapons, could work, but, again, hypocrites of this world won't let it happen.

  1. Expelling all the Jews is the same as expelling all the Palestinians.
  2. There hasn't been a one state solution unless you're counting British or Ottoman control as one state.

I mean sure. Don't me a racist bigot. Of course.

But let's not pretend that religion isn't fueling the atrocities being committed on both sides of the conflict.

[–] PolydoreSmith@lemmy.world 21 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

Jews, Muslims, and Christians lived in that area together for hundreds of years. This is a political conflict. The fucking Israeli settlers are psychopaths who roll into towns and start setting things on fire. It’s about territory, like all colonialist aggression.

Just gonna leave this here…

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Religion does have a nonzero influence, but you're correct in that this is primarily a political conflict. Zionists murder Muslim and Christian Palestinians alike, and Fatah, a secular resistance movement, was the leading org of the Palestinian side for the longest time.

This map is extremely misleading. The green areas shows very different things in each map.

  1. 1946: White is land privately owned by Jews. Green is mostly state owned land, so owned by the British empire, including the huge and mostly uninhabited Negev desert. Green contains land privately owned by local Palestinian Arabs, Druze, or foreign landlords in e.g. Damascus and Cairo.
  2. 1947 UN partition plan. White is the planned area for the Jewish state, including the empty Negev in the south. Green is the planned Arab state. Under this plan nobody would have had to leave their home. There would be remaining minorities in both. It was accepted by the Zionists, but rejected by the Arabs and Palestinians.
  3. 1949-1967: White is Israel. The green West Bank is annexed by Jordan. Green Gaza is occupied by Egypt. There is no Palestinian self rule. Arabs refuse to recognize Israel as a state. The green line of the ceasefire is explicitly not a border.
  4. 2000 Oslo accords: For the first time in history Palestinians have self rule in green areas A and B in Gaza and the West Bank. There are still to this day lots of Palestinians/Arabs with Israeli citizenship that live in Israel and own the same land they owned in 1946.

Religion isn't fueling it, it is just used as moral justification from both sides. If religion didn't exist the same thing would happen, but with a different form of moral justification.

It's a ton of racism too. Darker skinned Jews get all sorts of discrimination, it's just not as extreme as someone who is Palestinian.
