Well maybe if Israel hadn't reservationized them first there wouldn't be these massacres to begin with!

The middle east had been a historic haven for the Jews from European discrimination before the Zionists decided settler shit is totally cool if someone on a completely different continent does bad shit to you first.

Were the Americans justified in trying to wipe out the Native Americans by how many of them had fled discrimination in Europe first?

Were the Afrikaaners justified in doing it to the Bantu people because they didn't want to be British subjects?

Does the large share of Australia's and New Zealand's populations that are Irish and Scottish excuse what they did to the Aborigines and Maori?

Are all those Indigenous Americans, Bantu folks, Aborigines, and Maori people terrorists for having the gall to shoot back at the people actively taking their land?
