For instance...
The claim to the land of Palestine. NOBODY maintains a claim to land they vacated over 2000 years ago.

Except Jews have been living in the area continuously for 3200 years, at the minimum. Ergo, it was not "vacated"

Yes...a few.
Most however...the VAST majority...either went north to Turkey and on to Western Europe, or east to Babylon and then north to Russia.
This happened because at the time, the Romans had had enough of them and turfed them out.

Face it...the Jews were kicked out bythe Romans.
The claim is nonsense by any standards...except Zionist standards.
Funny that huh?

[Hirdmann]

Yes...a few.

Irrelevant. You said that the Jews vacated the area. I pointed out that this wasn't true, and that your claim therefore isn't true either.
The fact remains, that Jews have a lot more right to live in Israel, than you have to live in Canada. So why don't you go pack your stuff and GTFO back to whatever part of Europe your ancestors came from?
Or is that somehow "like tolly diffrentz 'n stuffz"?

[Buzz62]

The big difference is...there is no violent conflict in Canada.
See...for all the horrible things that have been done to the Indians here, we still manage to keep it peaceful and civil.
Which is certainly not the case with the Zionists and the Palestinians...is it...

So for as bad as "colonialism" is...it can be done in a manner that is peaceful...like us...or violent...like Israel.
So yes, it is, "like tolly diffrentz 'n stuffz".

Utterly irrelevant.

No, it isn't. It just happens to be where you live, so it's only different because you don't want to take the consequences of your own viewpoint.

[Buzz62]

Utterly irrelevant.

How convenient for you...

No, it isn't. It just happens to be where you live, so it's only different because you don't want to take the consequences of your own viewpoint.

Consequences of your own viewpoint?
What the hell are you talking about?

I showed you how colonialism can be done in a peaceful way, and how that differs from the Israeli methods and results.
However...NOW all the sudden that's irrelevant.
As for any consequences of my own viewpoint...I haven't the slightest notion of what you're trying to get at.
Or have you decided to "pretzel" this discussion because obfuscation might work?
