      Lol today is the result of 70 years ago. Actions don’t just stop affecting people’s lives because they happened a long time ago. We couldn’t possibly live or do anything if we thought that way.

      Yes, Israel has responsibility to pay reparations. I have fought for that tirelessly in many ways. I just don’t like being called a colonizers when I have never even been there.

          Read through my post history where I have repeatedly condemned the Israeli govt. And then let me know if you think I “support colonizers”.

          I’m very frustrated that leftists can’t frame evil in the world as anything other than the “forces of colonization”. It’s a very complete and utter misunderstanding of world history and politics.
