NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Democrats cautiously open door to another Harris run in 20288·8 days agoIdk man I could see this exact title appearing on an Onion article.
Most early Zionists, even the vile ones who embraced ethnic cleansing as crucial to obtain “their” state had their goals fulfilled in 1948.
Yeah… no. Ben Gurion is on record saying “we should accept partition as an intermediary step towards Jewish conquest of all of Palestine” multiple times. Zionism has always been like this; Zionists have simply deluded themselves and everyone else into thinking early Zionism wasn’t exactly the same stuff as modern Zionism, just with better PR and more democracy for the master race. The reason Zionists didn’t conquer and ethnically cleanse all of Palestine is Arab intervention to stop exactly that from happening.
The vast majority of Zionists are Christian Evangelicals from the US.
That’s not true; Europe has pretty sizeable numbers too, and supposed liberal Zionists exist all over the West in large numbers. Screw them all, but let’s not pretend Zionists only have sway with one religious group.

NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Israel's Netanyahu calls Hamas 'Nazis' at Holocaust memorial1·27 days ago20% of Israeli citizens are Arabs today, with full rights.
And is 80% Jews not an overwhelming majority? Again, Zionists committed a whole ethnic cleansing campaign to get the Palestinian proportion of the population that low, and they did not in fact have full rights until 1967. Everything the Palestinian and Arab side feared would happen did.
What offer are you talking about?
In its debates, the UN divided its member States into two subcommittees: one to address options for partition and a second to address all other options. The Second Subcommittee, which included all the Arab and Muslim States members, issued a long report arguing that partition was illegal according to the terms of the Mandate and proposing a unitary democratic state that would protect rights of all citizens equally.
Apparently it was an Arab proposal rather than a Palestinian one, so my bad there. Still, it was an option that was being talked about. And speaking of which, stop referring to Palestinians as Arabs. There are north of 300 million Arabs only about 10 million of which are Palestinian.
Edit: You also didn’t respond to my Ben Gurion quote. This is the George Washington of Israel and he said “We must expel Arabs and take their place”, in 1937.
NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Israel's Netanyahu calls Hamas 'Nazis' at Holocaust memorial0·27 days agoEverybody would stay where they live already. Jewish immigration would only go to one of the states. It was always planned with a minority of Jews in the Arab state and a minority of Arabs in the Jewish state. So no giving up land that was privately owned. All land acquired by Zionists until 1948 was legally purchased.
Are you aware of what Zionists did in the Nakba? Are you aware of why they committed the Nakba? Zionists wanted a Jewish state with an overwhelmingly Jewish majority so they could maintain the facade of a Jewish democratic state. Ethnic cleansing was simply the solution to that “problem”. There’s no world in which Palestinians would be allowed to etay peacefully in their land because they’d never vote for Zionists. Also look at the shit they did after they won the war and the shit they keep doing now. Are these the actions of people that were ever going to respect private land ownership?
We must expel Arabs and take their place.
Zionists could’ve accepted the Palestinian proposal of a mutli-ethnic democracy spanning all of Palestine, which in theory should’ve posed no issue, but they didn’t because it wouldn’t be a Jewish-dominated apartheid state.
Between 1948 and 1967 Palestinians could have accepted Israel’s existence and declared a Palestinian state in the non occupied West Bank and Gaza.
They were occupied—by neighboring Arab states. And either way that’s not a peace deal. Did you have something concrete in mind or were you just lying?
NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Israel's Netanyahu calls Hamas 'Nazis' at Holocaust memorial1·27 days agoOkay and? I’m from Egypt and I wouldn’t call myself a native of Iraq. Note that Middle Eastern Jews, having been expelled by the locals, were very much justified in going anywhere that would take them, but that’s neither here nor there.
NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Israel's Netanyahu calls Hamas 'Nazis' at Holocaust memorial0·27 days agoFor the first three: Why the hell did they have to give up their land to people who explicitly wanted to create an apartheid state?
For the rest: Pick any one of those and I’ll explain in detail why it was another farce. You’ll also have to explain what 1967 peace deal there was for Palestinians to accept.
NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.ioto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Israel's Netanyahu calls Hamas 'Nazis' at Holocaust memorial0·27 days agoHonestly Hamas is what struck the match for Israel to start killing.
May I interest you in literally all of Palestinian history? What did you want them to do? Sit on their asses as they’re starved and the West bank is ethnically cleansed by the Nazis?
I like how this means men are lawful neutral, women are lawful evil and skirts are chaotic good.
