There is no moral justification for Israel's right to exist. Israel does not have a right to exist. They exist purely as a foreign invasion force originally started by European Jews - who didn't even practice or believe in Judaism - in order to make their own private racist mediterranean resort state by killing the native people and stealing their land.

What makes you think anyone would want support their existence over the rights of the existing Palestinian people that lived there and are currently fighting to reclaim their homes?

Religions do not have a right of inheritance. A person can't claim your home when you die because they also happen to be Christian. The only legal inheritance are those with title. And no one from Europe that decided to attack and invade Palestine can show any deed or title to the land they claimed to "own" 2000 years ago when they decided to move to Europe.

So, no. The state of Israel exists purely as a criminal enterprise of murder and theft. Let's not encourage its continued existence.

I wonder if perhaps something has happened to European Jews in the 1930s that made them look for a place to re-settle

		> made them look for a place to re-settle re-settle is fine, Palestinians and Jews were living together in those areas for thousands of years. Massacre, oppression and take over is not, especially when the problem wasn't caused by people living in those areas: Palestinians and Jews. If anyone owes a land to European Jews, it is a Germany.

You do realize most Israelis were born there? Having a right to live where you are born is a pretty fundamental one.

So do Palestinians. It wasn't an empty land, right?

I don't think West Bank settlers agree with you on this

		"I don't think West Bank settlers agree with you on this" So? Did I said something that makes you think I agree with them on many points? There ain't just 2 extreme sides in this conflict.

lol the Israelis would also disagree, otherwise they would have let the Palestinians live with them instead of literally going village-to-village, and door-to-door to forcibly remove the Palestinian residents or be killed if they didn't.

If the state of Israel doesn't believe in native rights, then you shouldn't believe in supporting their native rights either.

Thank you, but I choose for myself what rights I support and yes, it is rights on both sides.

No... thank YOU for believing in the right of Palestinians to return to their homes.

Oh, I do. Do you believe in the right of the Israelis to stay safe in their houses?

Yes, only if you clarify which house you mean, because some of them think Palestinian houses are theirs, Lebanon is theirs, Jordan is theirs, parts of Saudi Arabia is theirs, parts of Egypt is theirs.

		Houses they build or bought from the owner. But in general the situation surely is messy.
