Post Israel or Palestine?
Some Black Lives Matter marches and tweets have been pro Palestine as of late (Because they see Israel as white colonialists), as are AOC and Omar pro Palestine. Where do you stand?

I am strongly pro-Israel.

Dems are usually pro Palestine and Republicans are usually Israel as far as I can tell.

Both are pretty horrible. But if I would have to choose, I would choose Israel. Human rights are better there, than in their neighbour countries. If the area would become an Islamic state, it would mean worse things to a lot of people.

Thinking Israeli people as "white colonialists" is retarded. You don't have to know much about history to refute that point.

I think this is a very loaded question and subject.

Between the two, I'm rather pro-Palestine because I think they're the underdog.

Too bad that it involves some selfishly power hungry sides and they're not able to come to some peaceful resolution.

Israeli government are a bunch of dicks, but in their defense, its hard to negotiate borders when the other side thinks your existence is a curse on the entire region.

It seems to me if Palestine was in control, their goal would be to wipe out the Jews much more than the Jews are currently trying to wipe out the Palestinians. So the current way is the less deadly outcome. As it stands Palestinians are as much in danger battle for power within Palestine as they are from Israel. A 2 state solution hasn't happened cause Palestine on its own with their current territory won't survive and they know it.

Some encouraging signs for peace in the Middle East with Israel and UAE agreement (some other countries like Oman and Bahrain have also already followed their lead)
