There's some pretzel logic going on in this thread that I'm trying to wrap my head around. For context let's take these figures:
From Wikipedia: "...between 1979 and May 2021, at least 48,035 Muslim terrorist attacks took place worldwide, causing the deaths of at least 210,138 people..." (Not included, hundreds of attacks prior to 1979.)
"Palestinian political violence has targeted Israelis, Palestinians, Lebanese, Jordanians,[22] Egyptians,[23]Americans[24] and citizens of other countries.[25] Attacks have taken place both within Israel and the Palestinian territories as well as internationally and have been directed at both military and civilian targets. Tactics have included hostage taking, plane hijacking, boat hijacking, stone and improvised weapon throwing, improvised explosive device (IED), knife attacks, shooting sprees, vehicle-ramming attacks, car bombs, suicide attacks, and assassinations."
Who's "misbehavior" should we excuse? Israel's? Or the centuries of slaughter in the name of Allah or Palestine or simple hatred of Jews by everybody including Kings of England? Hitler was a late-comer to the "annihilate the Jews and steal their gold" party. Every swinging dick who had power in Europe or Russia has at one time or another tried to expel or euthanize the Jews.
Collectively, after the Holocaust, in my opinion, the world owed them a trip to their ancestral homeland. It wasn't pretty or neat but it is what it is.

! The American taxpayer is still getting hoodwinked. The Israeli's should be buying their own gear, not having Uncle Sugar finance it. All while they use the money saved to buy politicians. They're worse than the Europeans in that aspect. They're also not our friend.
