You’re claiming that draft, that I had to tell you about, which was written 7 years after the establishment of the state of Israel (when it was barely a functioning state) is Hasbara?

I’m not claiming that the draft speech and its contents are hasbara, only that I suspect they might be, and that if they aren’t, then I think less of Einstein if he wrote that, “the Arab hostility […] is the root cause of the tension,” because I think the root cause is Western settler-colonialism.

I won't tell you what to think of him but honestly, he was a Jew who saw firsthand the rise of violent antisemitism in Europe - he was extremely biased on this subject, his views don't really surprise me.

Edit: Btw after re-reading my replies to you, not sure why I was so hostile, sorry
