Comments by "" (@titteryenot4524) on "'Israel is not ready to pay the tax of a peace deal' - extended interview with Hamas" video.
When you create an artificial state by stealing land from others and thereby dispossessing them and then proceed to oppress them for decades on end, do you really expect no blowback? It was inevitable Israel’s neighbours were going to have a problem with its 1948 creation. It’s a bit like some random pitching up in my back garden one day and then proceeding to take over the whole house! Isaac Asimov nailed this: I remember how it was in 1948 when Israel was being established and all my Jewish friends were ecstatic, I was not. I said: what are we doing? We are establishing ourselves in a ghetto, in a small corner of a vast Muslim sea. The Muslims will never forget nor forgive, and Israel, as long as it exists, will be embattled. I was laughed at, but I was right. I can’t help but feel that the Jews didn’t really have the right to appropriate a territory only because 2000 years ago, people they consider their ancestors, were living there. History moves on and you can’t really turn it back.
