> But they did not displace the population. They arrived to the area in the beginning of 1900s. The war of 1948 was much later.
Yes they did, this was the Nakba, as documented by Israeli historians like Illan Pappe and Bennhy Morris
The purchase of the land up to 1948 resulted in only 6% of palestine being occupied and upon Palestinians clamouring for their own state, it was decided to take territory by force.
White supremacy is not really about being white or not. Italians and southern europeans were not considered white in the early 20th century US. Its about who is considered the top of a hierarchy of a racial hierarchy or not.
> Man, why are you like that? Why do you ignore any historical evidence that does not fit your narrative? Why do you apply different standards to jews and not jews in the same situations?
You are talking to a Jewish former zionist, with grandparents who survived the holocaust, who has rejected the myths of Zionism. The narrative is based on historical evidence. I'm applying the same standards to Jews as I would do to Nazis.
> Yes they did, this was the Nakba
Gotcha. So, refugees are colonizers then, right?
> The purchase of the land up to 1948 resulted in only 6% of palestine being occupied
Palestinians owned about 8%. The rest was owned by the Ottomans and later by the British mandate.

You are contradicting yourself. White supremacy is either about race (ie white) or not. If it’s not about race at all, then how can it determine racial hierarchy???

I don’t care who you are. I argue about your claims, and not ethnic or cultural or ancestral background. You can be the Moses himself and still be wrong.
> The narrative is based on historical evidence.
You are not.

What does it even mean? Are you saying Jews are nazis?
