Palestinians were already in PALESTINE 🇵🇸 before Israel was created. It’s says here in the Balfour Declaration, key word “existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine”

So that being said what moral leg does Israel have to stand on? They displaced an existing population to create a state. How would you like it if that happened where you lived?

Just to add to this remember that the powers at the time were turning back Jewish immigrants/refugees themselves to their own states.

True but does it justify what they did to the Palestinians? There is the possibility the jewish leaders in these countries didn’t want immigrants/refugees going back to Europe and worked with these powers to prevent them from returning so the only option was Palestine… 🤔 achieves the goal of getting people into Palestine to create a state… fits the MO

Just to be clear, Palestine must be free from colonialism.

I was just pointing out the hypocrisy.

Free Palestinians from the violent colonial state.

Ohh gotcha that was immediately clear 🤝

Adding to your point, Avi Shlaim a British-Israeli historian and an Iraqi Jew says this in his recent memoirs. Worth a read:
