    I support a free Palestine and a free Israel and I also condemn the actions of both of them! And I understand the context very well, also you got to go far further than 1907.

      If you already digged that deep you know for fact that it was called Palestine buddy.

      If you support Israel then be consistent and support Russia taking part of Ukraine as well.

      I stand for Palestine to be free and Ukraine to be free as well.

        You know why it’s called Palestine? Because the Romans kicked all the Jews out and to add insult to injury, they renamed it that way.

          I’m an atheist but since they’re calling to dig into history, and since religious books are technically accounts (though very inaccurate) of what their writers witnessed and knew at the time mixed with superstition, it’s always ironic to me how even the Quran never mentions Palestine and instead always says “children of Israel”.

            Children of Israel refer to a group of people by their beliefs not where they live btw.

            It’s like saying I live in atheism.

            The discussion isn’t who was there first. It’s about who was there when international law became established.

          Good point! They used to live there.

          Does this imply Russia did nothing wrong by taking Crimea? Because it used to be theirs as well not long ago.
