if you want a real answer, Israel's "legitimacy" is about as legitimate as any other post-colonial or post-imperial state. A vast amount of modern states were built through brutal regimes of conquest, displacement, imperialism/colonialism (or the effects/runoff thereof). The morality in how we look at states now is only achieved through a retroactive assessment of morality, which is especially common now because of the relative recency of Israel versus other countries. The country of Israel itself is ridden with problems which are extrapolated greatly because of the modern globalized world and culture. Israel's government is largely corrupt, hypocritical, and inhumane. Palestinians deserve self-determination and rights. Though if we're being real, outside of this now localized modern global morality, Israel's existence pales in comparison to the wider history of centuries of colonization and statehood prior to its establishment which was essentially normalized (mostly by the West) before globalization.
I’m being edgy because I’m not fake outraged like you are? Lol you idiots are getting mad because I’m being honest about the fact that I don’t care about what is going on in either of these countries.
Would you rather I just say what everyone is expected to say so that you can feel good about yourself?
“What Israel is doing us terrible. They’re killing innocent Palestinians and America is backing them. America is bad.”
There are you happy now? It doesn’t make it any less true that I don’t care who wins this conflict. I don’t have a horse in this race.
mans said people are fake mad about Palestinians having literal atrocities committed against them

You can be mad about whatever you want but my point is that you can’t get mad at me for not caring. Look what y’all made me do. You made me write a whole essay about why I don’t care about this 😂😂😂 that’s ironic as hell
Saying f*** Israel not gonna get em to f*** off. Awareness needs to be spread. People and their head of states need to get over their f***ing bullshit religions and learn to live together in harmony
It has nothing to do with me. Why should I care?
Because you’re a human being
I think the idea that a state is legitimate or not endorses an idea that basically only exists to denounce enemies. The US calls places illegitimate when their interests aren't in line. It's like saying "can white people be terrorists" or whatever. It's perpetuating the lingo that obscures agenda.
I believe Israel's Zionist government has been insurgent and genocidal in the middle east for most of its existence. Free Palestine.
No less legitimate than the good old US of A, a nation whose land was stolen from the natives by the British, and then stolen from the British by American-born separatists.
The ability to defend a claim with violence is the only thing that 'legitimizes' any state; ethics and morality be damned.
I believe that the western world should have no interest in the Israel/Palestine conflict and that we should let the Jews & Muslims figure it out
They are as legitimate as any other states that were invaded by colonials
Is new zealand a legitimate state?
Is australia a legitemate state?
Is USA a legitemate state?

Religious leaders shouldnt even exist,, and you wanna leave em alone to figure something out lol
The biggest problem is religion, particularly islam in the region with its restrictions. Religions have too many rules against freedom. What young person would be happy living in a muslim country knowing he could get in trouble with the govt if their neighbour snitch on him for bringing a girl over one night?

You preaching to the wrong person.
I’ve spoken about the reality of Islam before on here:
