    He’s literally the reason all this is happening

    There is not just one man behind this, despite how convenient this would be.

        I agree with you, but you might find the history of Zionism interesting. Before Israel, there was a sizable portion of Zionists that didn’t want Israel to exist in the middle east. There were also Zionists that didn’t want a ‘state’. They thought it was more important to have a safe place for a sizable Jewish population. There’s probably a lot of flavors of Zionism that you’d agree with. It’s the dominant Israeli Zionism that’s horrible.

        It’s a lot easier to say ‘Zionist’ though. Just thought I’d share in case you weren’t aware.

          In the link I provided above it says something very similar:

          While it had many strains historically, the Zionism that took hold and stands today is a settler-colonial movement, establishing an apartheid state where Jews have more rights than others. Our own history teaches us how dangerous this can be.

          Palestinian dispossession and occupation are by design. […]

          Apart from that when you say There’s probably a lot of flavors of Zionism that you’d agree with I must inform you that this is not the case.
