This comment was in response to someone expressing regret about joining .ml if I recall correctly

Edit: I’m convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.

    Yup, by not committing a genocide and reclaiming their homeland, they’re much worse than the invaders who already committed one.

    (Israel is the ancestoral homeland of the Jews, Muslims committed a genocide when they conquered the area)

      Quick question - if Native Americans killed 1 out of every 50 US citizens in an attempt to drive them off of Native ancestral land, would this be:

      A. Ethnic cleansing

      OR

      B. Not ethnic cleansing

      ?

            Great, so we agree. White people committed a genocide against the Indians when they conquered the Americas, just like Muslims committed a genocide against the Jews when they conquered the Middle East.

              Accepting that premise for the sake of the argument, since the history of the region’s disruption of the Jewish population predates Islam, so does that genocide justify another genocide some hundreds of years later?
