    I mean even your link says it wasn’t Egyptians first. That Egyptians settlers went to the area when an Egyptian pharaoh unified Egypt. But there people there before that.

    Which is why you have to pick a starting point and go from there. And if we are talking about forming a legitimized form Palestinian state, then starting at the partition plan is probably the most reasonable. Why? Because Israel exists and dissolving it and making the whole region Palestine is unreasonable and will not happen. It won’t. If you want peace, that is something you must accept.

    What needs to happen to settlers, what the exact borders will be, what happens to refugees, and people living on one side of the border but wishes to be a citizen of the other, all has to be discussed. But dissolving an entire country with nearly 10 million people is off the table. Not just because I think so, but because I’m the real world international legitimization matters. Israelis who have are multigenerational at this point will also not accept that and it won’t bring peace.

      And before you debate perv me with context. It certainly wasn’t the Jews who were first.

      Everything else is blather. Free Palestine.
