    Israel wants to destroy the Palestinian people, steal their land, destroy their homes, and build Jewish settlements there.

    They have been doing this for morethan 70 years.

    “The soldiers stood watching, and after the settler attack ended, the soldiers began to search houses across the village, raiding several houses and taking shifts throughout the night and then left at 3:00 in the morning", they added”

    What did their prime minster say - The most moral military in the world.

    Yeah right… and the World “leaders” are just standing there staring at the shit that’s been happening.

        Religion is the sole reason why Israel even exists and why Muslims hate the Jews.

          That’s an incredibly reductive oversimplification. The modern state of Israel exists due to the political Zionist movement which began in the 19th C and the sympathy for the Jewish people following Nazi Germany’s eugenicist attempt to wipe them out.

          A couple of millennia before that, you had the conflicts of the competing tribes and civilizations in the Fertile Crescent, which resulted in the Jewish diaspora.

          Religion has typically been weaponized to justify one group of people taking control of resources and land from another, but it has rarely been the root cause per se.

            I’d add that the original zionist movement consisted of jews living in the Ottoman empire, and the ‘agreement’ to give them a slice of it was taken by the Allied powers towards the end of the first world war.

      I originally typed ‘Arguably the worst thing we’ve done’ but the more I think on it, humans are generally terrible.

      If it wasn’t religion, it’d be racism, sexisim, geography based hate, abilisim, left handedness, phrenology, etc etc etc. Religion is just another lubricant to placate docile individuals, and justify the actions of hate focused individuals

      I’m certain we could all live together in peace, but we’re so tribalistic that the second anyone says their group is better than X because Y the majority of the population seems to lap it up at nearly any expense.

      Some religions are worse than others. This particular religions sees everyone else as Goy: something akin to slaves or animals.

      This isn’t religious. A bunch of trolls/liars came from Russia and Germany and said their ancestors left this land in the BC era.

      Edit: These people also claim that the Palestinians are land Interlopers who came from some undisclosed part of Arabia.

    Last Ramadan they literally went around blowing up cars. The one before, I believe they were putting concrete mix into the well water (they actually did this but I can’t remember if this was an Israeli Ramadan tradition).
