Steinbeck isn’t a Palestinian name.

What happened is that Zionists showed up and started murdering families and stealing land. The fictional Zionist “history” is no longer sellable.

I don’t agree with everything you’re saying but appreciate the level headed thinking. Thanks for that.

Do most people see nuance with the Nazis? I suggest you talk to some Gen Z people as they most definitely view Zionists as Nazi equivalent. A view I think most of the non-Western world also holds.

Zionists committed the ethnic cleansing and invasion of Palestine. I invite anyone to click the link and read for themselves.

Yes, the Nakba is ongoing.

All the violence in the region stems from the Zionist invasion, land theft and genocide.

Yes, it actually was and is the Israelis:

Palestinians have every right to resist occupation.

Being against genocide and land theft is the correct side obviously.

And think about how absurd it would be for anyone on the planet to go murder Africans and steal their land under the guise of it being our “homeland”. Sadly that has happened, but they didn’t bother to use that excuse.

Yes, they have successfully resisted Zionist invasion.

Palestinians are native to Palestine. Judea and Arabia do not exist.

Sure:

In a diary entry from June 12, 1895, Herzl detailed his plan: "We shall try to spirit the penniless [Palestinian] population across the border by denying it any employment in our own country... Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly".

Most people on the planet view this as a black and white issue. Zionists are the modern day Nazis and I don't see a lot of sympathy for them.

You need to take into account that Zionists are aging out of the population. The younger generations in the West absolutely support military action against Israel. If it was taken by force, it can be returned by force. I would definitely support US military action against Israel to defeat Zionism.

Zionists are the Nazis in this scenario, and yes we will ultimately defeat them.

Judea does not exist. If you’re talking about Palestine, very few Jews are from there pre-dating Zionist invasion.

Judaism is a religion. Jews are from all over the place. Almost none from Palestine.

I’m speaking historically, not ironically.

Returning land to the people it was brutally taken from is not “ethic cleansing”. The right of return is still valid.
