You shouldn't have expected better from @[email protected] and I shouldn't have answered their dumb question either... I should have stopped for a moment and said to myself, "why would anyone ask this question unless to make a hideous point?"
It's got the same undertone as the "What would you do if 1200 of your people were butchered?" question. Not whatever you're doing, that's for sure!
It absolutely isn't.
In what way?
It's like somehow you can't get it through your thick head that you can't just rob people of their land and massacre them, otherwise they retaliate.
Framing 1948 as some kind of Israeli victory will go down the dumpster of history in style.
"Israel fights war to successfully ethnically cleanse 700k Palestinians and destroy 500 of their villages, then claims that the Palestinians abandoned their homes, hence making them totally up for grabs. "
Yeah that sounds lovely.
