Yeah, you don't deserve the downvotes (IMO). The article is referencing border changes since Israel's inception. It's a lot more complicated than Gaza and Oct. 7th.

I appreciate that! Honestly, it's a little worrying how little historical context folks seem to have.
Don't know why I feel compelled to point it out other than being a glutton for punishment.
Anyway, thanks!
It's just Lemmy and the knee jerk reactions to the mention of Israel. It's rarely worth engaging on here on that subject.
