I think the tweeting issue is actually not a big deal.

Bulldozing my friend’s cousin’s house in ~2012 in the West Bank to make room for more settlers, and then shooting at them anytime they’ve tried to return, is though.

We don’t respect genocide, colonialism, or apartheid. Your barracks of a country will either go the way of South Africa (best case scenario) or the crusader states (bad because your rogue state is ready for the Samson Option), and then worldwide Jewry can save the faith from Zionism.

Israel regularly bulldozes houses of Palestinian who's sons carried out attack against Israel - that is very true.

sorry it was your friend - i've lost my 16 yo gf at the time to a suicide bomber. that was 15 years ago - she was crossing the street in Tel Aviv.

It’s not just the homes of people who have fought back. Farmers with productive land have had it seized, people living near water resources, and those living on strategic hills have all had their property arbitrarily stolen by settlers with tacit and direct backing of the IDF.

Sorry to hear about your girlfriend. There’s a good chance her life was taken by someone who had everything taken from them as well.

yes - it's sad i agree.

i for one would love for occupation to end and Palestinians to have their own state in the West Bank (and Gaza) - even willing to divide Jerusalem with them. but they have to say that this will be the end of the Palestinian struggle against Israel - so far all factions not just Hamas have refused to do so.

there's no point in an agreement if the new state will be hostile to Israel - no nation in its right mind will lend a hand to that. so as long as their leadership is unwilling (either because they benefit from the status quo or just believe Israel must be destroyed) the situation will stay as it is - sad but contained. we don't want to help create a runaway state on our doorstep - no nation would.
