    So where do you want the jews that are currently in Israel to go? Without the state of Isreal and a good military those people would die in that region, and not all of them agree with the current Israeli government. I agree the state is doing terrible things, but so is the US and I don’t think the answer there is to destroy the us

      I didn’t say the answer was to destroy Israel. I don’t think it should have existed in the first place, and Zionism is just more religious imperialism, but that doesn’t mean destroy Israel. It also doesn’t mean alllow Israel to basically commit genocide in response to an attack that was a response to decades of oppression and murder.

      I don’t know where you got the idea that I want to destroy Israel, in the 75 years that it’s been there, plenty of people have been there their entire life at this point. It’s a shitty situation all around.
