Dude im either being gaslit or you have nothing of value to say besides Israel is just western invasion/colonization and whatever you said about tankies that prompted me to respond with that article.

I am woefully uneducated about the palestine-isreal situation. from a quick skim of the intro section of the wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict , it seems like palestine are the "bad guys" for lack of a better term, due to not wanting to let jews return to their historical homeland. i may be way off the mark, however. would anyone care to ELI5 for me so i can get a better handle on it? from what i am gathering from reading the start of this thread, israel are actually more at fault? why is that?

That land is no less the 'historical homeland' of the Palestinians than it is the Jewish people.
What happened has happened and it wouldn't be right to force the citizens of Israel to leave or something, but the least they can do is honor fair treatment for the Palestinian people. Instead they continue to settle lands that were marked as for Palestine, treat them as second class citizens, and respond to protests with deadly force.

that is a correct understanding of what happened in the past and a core nugget for the present day conflicts.

it doesnt justify police and military brutality but if someone says something like Israel is just western invasion/colonization like @Doe did then you can safely disregard anything they have to say on basically anything

tankies are aligned with the neo-Nazis on anti-semitic views.

The Soviet Union was responsible for 80% of the Nazi casualties in WWII. Criticize tankies all you want, but its patently absurd to claim they align with Nazis. Its a bold-faced lie completely contradictory to reality.
