Jews freed Palestine in 1948.

Oh, so not only do y’all erase Jewish history, but words too?

Even Carter can be wrong. Syria Palestina is the name given to Judea after the Romans conquered Jerusalem in 135 CE. Just like all the other colonizers, they tried to strip the land of its Jewish identity. It’s Islamophobic to deny this.

Ah yes, the Palestine Orchestra. Funny they
printed their programs in Hebrew even back in the 1930s.

No, more like this:

“Colonial empire?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Of what mother nation exactly? Where are all those other Hebrew-speaking territories?

Speaking of inversion, here’s your empire: the largest, most brutal, oldest slaving colonial project in human history. And still expanding under the guise of pan-Islamism.

Do you? How embarrassing.

Friends of yours?

Holocaust inversion is a form of antisemitism. No, Israel is fighting a war against a genocidal terrorist organization whose supporters literally praise Hitler, a people who historically allied with Hitler to literally bring Hitler’s “final solution” to the Middle East.

Colonialism:
January 8, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Uhh, you missed a few. Speaking of “settler-colonialism” you also seem to have forgotten that the Arab/Muslim Conquest is the largest, longest-running settler-colonial project in human history, their empire stretching from the Arabian peninsula to Africa’s Atlantic coast. You’ve genocided irony.

When the UN voted in favor of the formation of the Jewish partition (the Arabs refused to even vote), the Arabs invaded on all fronts. It was a “war of annihilation” (their words) and they lost. Jews had won their land and under international law, legally declared the formation of Israel.

That still wasn’t enough for the Arabs, who launched a wave of riots that murdered and raped hundreds of Jews across the entire colony. They conspired with Hitler to continue his “Final Solution” in the Holy Land, promising to wipe out the Jews in their entirety.

So the British proposed the Peel Commission, which would give Jews only a small sliver of land along the coast while severely limiting Jewish immigration (despite Jews suffering massive pogroms across Europe).

The entire period between 1896-1948 was marked by bloody riots and massacres launched by Arabs against Jews. To appease the Arabs, the British gave all of Jordan to the Arabs, an area five times the size of Israel, but that wasn’t enough for them. They refused to live beside Jews.
January 4, 2025 at 3:51 PM
Again, your version of “history” is completely inaccurate. Who were the “Palestinians” at the time of the British Mandate? They were the Jews. The Arabs called themselves “Arabs” because they identified with the pan-Arab empire. Modern Palestinian identity was invention by the KGB in the 1960s.
January 4, 2025 at 3:51 PM
Again, maps are your friends. Don’t be afraid. They only bite BS.
January 3, 2025 at 8:29 PM
The side you’re advocating for literally conspired with Hitler to bring his final solution to Israel. Get a clue and pick a better side.

Snatching land? That’s what you call “colonialist inversion.”
