I'm in agreement with the main thrust of the comment, that Zionist settlers were the primary cause for tensions and the eventual breakout of war in the Mandate, and that the Palestinian cause was the more just of the two, but you're really softballing what is a long history of antisemitism and antisemitic violence in the Levant.
I agree, I'm more just using the comments further up in the thread. I wouldn't have said the thing about Jerusalem had it not been commented above. I was trying to weave that into my comment to form an argument based on what everyone here seemed to be talking around. I know antisemitism is a real thing that doesn't just exist because of zionism. I'm not excusing real antisemitism of jews for immaterial reasons, just to be clear.
We seem to be in agreement for the most part, I was hesitant to even put the Jerusalem comment in there but someone had proclaimed it so confidently in the thread I was like alright since yall seem to think this let me just say this
Oh, good! Yeah, I think we're on the same page.
Hell yeah 😎 hope you have a great weekend, thanks for the honest reply
