    To which date, specifically, should we reset nations and borders, in your opinion?

      Pedantic argument. There’s no specific date to “reset”. You and I are both well aware of who is an oppressor and who the land was stolen from.

      Land back to all Native peoples, fuck the Eurocentric hegemony created by European imperialism.

        Land back to all Native peoples

        The Kingdom of Israel existed there up until 720 BCE. Israelis and Jews lived in that area effectively “always”, just like the Palestinians. Returning “land back to all Native peoples” would mean exactly what we did - establishing a Palestine AND an Israel.

        What’s missing right now is the UN to get off its arse and ensure that they remain separate, without Israel encroaching on Palestinian land.

          It ended is existence in 720 BCE. Current State of Israel has no relation to it other than name. Majority of the Jews staying there today are Europeans.

            Majority of Jews are Europeans because they got kicked out of their home in the 15th-16th century.

            But now we have a conundrum! You’re saying that “State of Israel has no relation to it other than name”, and that is - from what I understand - your argument towards there being no Israel as the solution to the issues, right?

            But that means Palestine should be eliminated too considering it never existed as a nation at all in the entire history of humanity.

            So, which is it? Are we keeping your methodology and giving back the entire territory to Iran, or are we agreeing that it’s stupid fucking methodology?

          Why separate them? bring Kanaan back and if the Jews don’t like it they can go farming in the hills again.

        No, it’s a valid question, Jews also used to live in that land millennia ago.

            Did you used to own the house and then were kicked out of it by force by a third party that never owned even part of the house?
