    You missed the part in which Israeli citizens get indoctrinated since kindergarten and the one in which they have been trying to colonize whatever is around them because their imaginary friends told them to.

      Well your country may have been on stolen land, what if you had a group of people near you that wanted to take the land back by force; are you willing to give up your own house?

      The whole question is absurd, you’re not going to, and you’re also not going to let them continue attacking you, because your desire to save your family from rape and murder is greater than your empathy.

        If my house was built on land that was taken after murdering the people there, then I would deserve to have my house burned down, feelings are irrelevant.

          So non-native Canadians and the Americans should give up all their land back to the indigenous and move back to Europe?

            Well yes, in practice that’s not feasible, but we should be giving land back to native groups. In reality humans have migrated throughout history, I don’t disagree with the concept of settling necessarily but groups that were subject to genocide and forced expulsion deserve reparations.
