    A lot of borders were rewritten as a consequence of wars throughout history. The initial Israel land was given to them by the victors of WW2. It’s legitimate. Get over it.

    Their actions since to slowly and inhumanely drive out Palestinians in order to occupy more land for themselves are not.

    Israel does have the right to defend itself, as any current country or region looking to protect itself. Their aggression beyond that self-defense is what should be stopped and punished.

      “slowly” you do realize the first thing Israel did upon their founding was the Nakba right?

        Had that worked for them them, we wouldn’t be here today discussing current day genocides. So yes, “slowly”.

          “Why did the Nazis invade Russia when they already conquered Poland?”

          Because (drum roll please)

          They are Nazis.

            Yeah, I don’t get it. Nazis were set on European domination so of course they would have attacked Russia. Russia would have invaded them as well had the situation been reversed because they shared those ambitions, so I’m not seeing the point you’re trying to make.

                I’m not seeing anything that changes my initial points.

                Almost every country that has egomaniacs in power strives for conquest.

                    I watched some of the video and am quite confused by your comments. It seems to me that it’s you who didn’t care to read mine.

                    Summed up, i said Israel has right to self-defense, but not aggression.

                    Then you went off-road with those comments i still don’t get what they’re supposed to mean.
