Natives and Natives

Are Iriquois communities in New York state "settler colonialist"? No. Why not? Because they come from New York as a region.

 Calling Israel a colonizing state, or a settler state in a negative way is completely insane. Jews come from Israel. Returning would be like Iroquois returning to these areas in New York state, where other Native Americans like them live.

(And on the subject, Arab Palestinians are native to Israel because they called it Palestine and are Palestinians insofar that English-Americans are native to America because they call it America and are Americans) 

Imagine Native Americans in New York State to be independent. They offer and accept any compromise, just to be free. Even a half-government. The US says no and invades them. The Iroquois win and gain a little more land. Ask the same thing. The US and New York rejects it, invades again. Repeat. Third time, repeat. Most the US gives up the fight, but some refuse. The US wants the same or better deal then the Iroquois asked from a place of weakness. And when they refuse, they call it apartheid because it occupies some lands until they accept peace it hasn't annexed precisely because it wants peace with New York.

That is the Israeli-Arab conflict in a nutshell.

The Orwellian Nature of the Anti-Israel World's History of "Palestinian."

"Palestinians", as it is defined today, is a new term. You can think whatever you want about Israel today, or the Levant or if Pluto is a planet, but that is objectively true. Objectively, Palestinian referred originally to anyone living in the territory of modern Israel and the West Bank, including some Northern Syria. It was objectively a new term as used today, to refer to Arabs in the land of Israel. So, why is it wikipedia, the Palestinian Authority, the "Squad" as they call themselves, and tens of millions of people around the world deny the basic history (shown with proof below)? Is it not the most egregious example of Orwellian history changing a word, once referencing anyone in the area, to now reference a people which were not a people until the 1940's (and at best seem to only be binded together as the ones which aren't Israel and not under their neighbors), most of which had family move into the area of modern Israel during the 1800's yet are

The Hebron Massacre and the 1948 War

Image
  The rooms looked like a slaughterhouse… This is Pierre Van Paassen account of what he witnessed in the aftermath of the deadly Hebron 1929 Pogroms. W hat occurred in the upper chambers of Slonim’s house could be seen when we found the twelve-foot-high ceiling splashed with blood. The rooms looked like a slaughterhouse. When I visited the place in the company of Captain Marek Schwartz, a former Austrian artillery officer, Mr. Abraham Goldberg of New York, and Mr. Ernst Davies, correspondent of the old Berliner Tageblatt, the blood stood in a huge pool on the slightly sagging stone floor of the house. Clocks, crockery, tables and windows had been smashed to smithereens. Of the unlooted articles, not a single item had been left intact except a large black-and-white photograph of Dr. Theodore Herzl, the founder of political Zionism. Around the picture’s frame the murderers had draped the blood-drenched underwear of a woman. [1] We stood silently contemplating the scene of slaughter when
