      Denying the Jews the right to self-determination that all other peoples have is antisemitic.

      Israel is a criminal state that should be stopped. But we can do that, we should do that, without antisemitism.

        Palestine doesn’t have that right right now, and that is because of Israel.

        How do you think that should be righted?

          The goal should be the two states solution. It won’t be possible if there isn’t a strong international pressure on Israel. Again, Israel is a criminal state and should be treated as such. So is Russia, and nobody publishes memes on how Russia has no right to exist.

            We have seen how well the two states solution worked in the last 50 years.

                There has always been a strong international pressure against it. But the USA always vetos any resolution against Israel. The USA controls the UN.

            I agree two states are probably the most realistic solution to the current situation. But I don’t think Israel should have been established by colonial powers in the first place.

                  If the Jew people of Palestine want the independence, who are we to deny it? The only moral solution in this case is the two states solution.

                    Hold on a sec: self determination is always within the context of recognizing the right of self determination of other groups and the basic human rights of everyone involved.

                    Also, Israel already has millions of Palestinian citizens. And all of these people deserve a say in what the resulting arrangement looks like.

                    A two state solution is one possibility, but there is no strict requirement that it is the only or best way to serve the needs of those involved.

                    “Self determination” to oppress others lmao. Fascism is not self determination.
