      Palestine is not a religious entity, and have been in favor of religious coexistence since the very beginning. It is the Zionist state that is exclusive of other religions by design.

        All the yelling of “Allahu akbar” while celebrating the death and destruction in Israel, would seem to be in conflict with your statement.

          Israel is by its own definition the Zionist state founded on religious exclusivism. An ethnocentric state in a land inhabited by other religions and ethnicities. It should absolutely be taken down.

          religious war

          Israel is not Judaism.

            An ethnocentric state in a land inhabited by other religions and ethnicities.

            • In land bordering the lands of lther religions and ethnicities.

            What exactly justifies the takedown of Israel? That its religion is different or what? Thats none of ghe other countries business.

              as I already said above, it is because it is an ethnoreligious state that excludes people of other ethnicities (Arabs, Africans, etc) and other religions (Muslims, Christians, etc). It has engaged in massacre and forced expulsion of those people, so it must be taken down and the genocide must cease.

                So what? Thats their business what rules they want to have inside their country. Thats nl reason to attack them.

                forced expulsion of those people, so it must be taken down and the genocide must cease.

                Forced expulsion is dtill inside their own country. So you take them down with a genocide yourself? Fight fire with fire?

                  No it is not their business to genocide ethnic and religious minorities lmao. Would you say the same about the Nazis too? was the US justified in genociding native americans also? ridiculous.

                  Forced expulsion is dtill inside their own country

                  yes it is. I hope you dont mean that this makes it better. I may be failing to understand this genocide sympathizer logic.

                  So you take them down with a genocide yourself?

                  No. The only one committing genocide at the moment and in this conflict is Israel itself.

                    No. Would you say its justified to attack the US today (because of that genocide)? I certainly wouldnt.
