Clarification please

Zionism is inherently racist. This movement has nothing to do with Judaism. One of the greatest misdeeds of the Netanyahu regime - tho it pales in comparison to their other misdeeds - is to present their inhumane actions as the Jews' point of view. Israel's strategy in the last couple of year was to portray all completely justified criticism of Zionism, and especially of the state of Israel's inhumane approach to its realization, as anti-Semitism. There is no truth in this whatsoever. Zionism is not Judaism and the state of Israel does not stand for the Jews as a religious group - these days Israel only stands for a criminal regime that murders helpless people and breaks international law. This is not about religion, but about crimes against humanity committed by a sovereign state, by Israel, their criminal regime and all their henchmen.

Lol... Their ancestors only lived there after they ethnically cleansed the people who were already living there. They've been doing this crap for a long time.

Edit: to clarify, I'm talking about the Jewish people of Israel

A unified and stable middle east would be and would have been a global superpower with the ability to influence independent control over major global trade routes and energy supply.

This is why the Israel is and has been imperative to U.S. foreign policy.

The jewish people have never wholly owned that area. Persians, Arabs, and many other races have also always lived there. It’s literally in the bible.

"their ancestors"

The first Jews to move to Palestine were European Jews, they can't use the "our ancestors" card.

In addition to the first Israeli migrants being Europeans, they displaced the actual indigenous population that was native to the land. The Muslim and Christian populations are mostly descendents from ancient Israelis that converted.

Israel is basically just the US, which is why they're such strong allies. They have the same roots.

Very good point.

Settler colonial re(de)colonize colony USA!

Lol I thought this was a Mormon meme at first

It’s the same bs Russia uses to validate their invasion and theft of land like Crimea

Don't I deserve to seize my childhood home, or the one I sold last week? no anti-semitic replies please.

Not really, it's just a thinly veiled excuse so that any criticism of our current neocolonialist policies can be treated and swept up under the rug just like centuries before, except the rug is painted in the color of supposed religious intolerance (oh shit, guess I still can't be atheist in the 21st century).

Common hamid W

Fuck Israel and America

Native Americans are not The Chosen People. And it is antisemitic to make the comparison.

They didn't even live there, they are foreign LARPers who hate Arabs

This is a weird comparison. Native Americans were the victims a of horrific genocide similar to Palestinians now.

I think support for Israel is based on their sharing three principle values of the west: liberalism, democracy, & capitalism.

Oh snap! Gottem!!!!
