give me a break. Israel has a legal right to exist as a state no matter how you slice. after the collapse of the ottoman empire there was a plan to give jews a state in their ancestral homeland. after world war 2, maybe due to sympathy from the holocaust, the plan got ratified by the rest of the world and moved forward. now some say the plans were supposed to include a palestinian state too, but after Israel was created the palestinians and surrounding arab nations attacked. in my opinion, this forfeits any plans of statehood they were previously offered. not only did Israel defeat the invaders, they conquered a swath of the middle east stretching almost to Cairo. so no matter how you ascribe ownership
the land belongs to israel. the only reason palestinians are still there is because no arab nation took them in or ever will, because having millions of hate-filled desert pirates who will suicide themselves at your command if you give them even some rocks to work with is a great asset.
“We”?
dont be pedantic. the noun that goes with it is perfectly clear
So you are israeli?
no, but you're clearly a dipshit
Source?
i literally just listed the only 3 ways any country gets recognized, ever, in the history of the world. israel meets all 3. you have no argument, go away.
Sorry, but Israel isnt a legitimate country, and never will be. They are basically terrorists who steal land, ever since David Ben-Gurion made it clear that land theft was the plan.
that isnt an argument. your wishing their claim is illegitimate doesnt alter reality. i presented to you the only 3 claims anyone has to any land in all history and israel meets not 1 claim but all 3 claims. ancestral. treaty. and conquest. so go away.
