So you're saying that you think the curriculum and education, that involves coloring books showing the shooting of Jews and hands on training with weapons for elementary school children isn't a problem?

On a technical note, Jews didn't colonize Judea. They've been there since before the Arabs. They decolonized the region, Palestine and Gaza is literally a colony in practice.

Sure it is a problem, and it isnt going to solved until Israel stops being a settler colonial apartheid state or they entirely murder or displace every Palestinian. I'm guessing you prefer the latter?

What not ever reading a book on colonial theory does to a motherfucker

We are all from Africa, but if you went to Libya and started killing people and claiming their land as your own, you'd be a fucking settler. So to with Israel.

Your book on indigeneity, does it include continued existence in the region? Indigenous languages and their revival? Israel hits every note in your book, Palestine doesn't.

Now you're claiming I want people dead, going personal is the weak pivot of the loser but no I don't want anyone dead who's not a terrorist. The colonial apartheid bullshit is a non starter, there's millions of Arabs living just fine in Israel. They vote, serve in government and the military. You know where there's laws against religion? In Gaza, which is an apartheid state. This problem starts to turn when the Palestinian refugee industrial complex is unraveled. There are billions of dollars being funneled into creating propaganda that isn't helping the people who live there. A moderate pan Arab contingent of countries is going to have to guide the reeducation. I get that people like you think Israel needs to cease to exist which is literally calling for the death of ten million Jews who live there but you should probably start to accept reality and understand that they're not going anywhere, and this isn't stopping until Hamas is gone and the hostages are home.
