Israel is a product of European Colonization. It predates WW1 and WW2. After learning more about it, IMO it shouldn't exist as it does today.

Jews and Christians and Muslims lived in the area since the religions were invented, we don't need a European colony to still exist.

Good luck fitting it all back in the box

Under strict Authoritarian Muslim rule. The Jews and Christians didn't exactly have a lot of power in the area.

A European colony that displaced native folks is basically.. everything.

Muslims are known for their tolerance towards other religions. That's why all around the middle east you have thriving communities of pluralism.

muslims can't even get along amongst themselves lmao, just look at syria ( do i even need to elaborate?) or suni vs shi (saudi arabia vs iran) or yemen where not a single jew exists today or jordan which fought Palestinianians regularly or Lebanon which was once a christian majority or sudan or iraq or qatar which has literal slaves

seriously muslims are known for tolerance? are you high?

I really don't know how I could have phrased it more obviously ironic. But I guess you're that dense lol

Maybe you are high?
