  • The start of the issue was when Europeans wanted Jewish people out of Europe after WW2 so they stole a shit ton of land that’s important to three different religions from the Palestinians and called it Israel…

    That’s not what happened. There was a strong desire for a Jewish state in Palestine for hundreds of years, in the beginning of the 20th century this was accelerated through the British mandate and immigration. The real story is way more complex and your representation of it is not only wrong but also negates the agency the Jewish population living there for centuries had in creating the Jewish state.

    Of course the horrors of the Holocaust had part in the decision but it was not because “Europeans wanted Jews out”

    Like I said the real history is waaaaay more complex, I suggest you read up on it - the History of the British mandate is a got starting point.
