    I’d rather not take sides on this clusterfuck of an issue but I do want to point out that if your ancestors leave your homeland for hundreds of years and then you return, your claim to the land in a self-righteous ethnostate is a little questionable.

      And then if you can hold that land against multiple invading countries at the same time and defeat them in six days, your claim is really fucking strong.

      So that land is just Israel until they can’t hold it.

        Well, morally questionable, that is. But yeah, anyone can be really strong when funded by a major world superpower.

          North Korea is funded by a major world power and isn’t strong at all.

            I didn’t say it was a guarantee. I said that they can be strong. If billionaire gives you one dollar you can say “funded by” yet you still have one dollar.
