By your logic, any peoples defeated in warfare and kicked off lands are justified to commit murder, rape, to pillage, and to kidnap occupiers.

In America that would include hundreds of Native American tribes today whose descendants could resist that way against Americans, yes?

The Native Americans definitely had the right to fight back against occupation and did famously on many occasions. Sadly they were successfully ethnically cleansed from the land.

The Palestinians are 75 years into the process of colonization and ethnic cleansing. They are actively resisting, as would anyone.

  • In your mind, how does this get resolved?

    • Step one would be to end the apartheid state of Israel. Very much how South Africa ended its apartheid state. Nothing can happen until everyone has the same status regardless of ethnicity or religion.
