    Look at the map of where Palestinians are living in 1948 (or hell, even 1966) vs now. Then you’ll see why it’s called a genocide.

      Like the previous comment said, not a very effective genocide. Land wise, Palestinians were offered their own state on 48, they rejected so that Jewish people will not have their own state.

        Their rejection is understandable. The west/UN offered them land? Shouldn’t the people who had lived there for generations be able to decide for themselves?

          Jews have lived in this land for many generations as well and equally have the right for that land as well. That’s not to say that they should drive whoever lived there out. They were offered full citizenship and their own full sovereign country which they didn’t have before but they refused and instead declared war.

            Somebody doesn’t even pretend to have ever read a book in their life or listened to somebody who actually lives there.

                No meaningful conversation to be had with somebody who spouts such blatant obvious falsehoods.

                Sorry I won’t waste my time replying and compiling sources just so you can call them all fake. 🤷
