> You mention a list of reasons, but you forget to mention the most important: that the Palestinians were displaced from their homeland in hordes, often quite violently, in the 1940s to make room for current day Israel
Right, so because 700k Palestinians were displaced 75 years ago (due to a war they started together with the surrounding Arab nations, while throwing out the Jews living in those Arab nations) the just thing to do is to violently displace 7 million Jews now (?). Sounds simplistic maybe but what I described is the 'solution' Hamas says it wants and there's a huge support for this among Palestinians and Muslims in general.
I wonder if all other nations who had a history of displacement are going to follow suit and voluntarily dismantle themselves to try to create justice for events whose participators are mostly not alive anymore.
