This is not agreeing that Israel is allowed to continue committing genocide. This is just saying that country is allowed to exist as a country. Or do you think that once a country commits a horrific act that they should no longer be allowed to exist?

I'm more interested in the inverse: when does colonizing an already-inhabited area turn into a recognized country? Because Israel was created by a stroke of the pen out of Palestinian land. Or is it purely "might makes right"?

Oh. Could you educate us more about this? Why exactly was it created with the stroke of a pen and when? And by whom? By the mighty Jewish people?

not OP, but, google Mandatory Palestine

No, sorry.

If you're not willing to learn, then don't ask people to educate you!

I wanted him to write out his opinions. Since COVID I’m done with people who just throwing a link to me and say educate yourself.

it's not their opinion... it's facts.

Since COVID I'm done with links...

So, you rather accept someone else's opinion, instead of building your own one? That's how the Nazi-regime started in the first place.

No, I just don’t like to get some bullshit link with the words educate yourself.

I can send you some books to your home address, if you prefer it that way?

No, but please give me the titles with authors.

The great sea - A human history of the Mediterranean by david abulafia.

It's not Palestine/Israel specific, but a "broad" history about the Mediterranean .

Honestly, thanks. I make sure to check this one out. I like reading about history.

I recommend you the last book I have read: the world of yesterday by Stefan Zweig.

the thing is...WTF do people care about Israel, Brazil, Uganda, Madagascar, etc. when applying for German citizenship? That's the whole point of this absurdity.

You can’t understand that a county that once did a genocide tried to make amends?
