Palestinian terrorists use civilians as human shields and fire rockets from schools and hospitals. The IDF takes more steps than any other military to reduce civilian deaths.
Name one war Israel fought that was offensive. You can't because every single war Israel has been in has been a defensive war.
Challenge accepted, Moses lead Israelites out of the desert, that land was occupied they murdered all who lived there and took the land, after WWII THERE was no Israel again with help they reoccupied a country that wasn't theirs and continue to do so with help to this day. Odd I didn't see you mention this in your thread when you pointed out how evil America is. YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTE IDIOT WHO HAS NO IDEA ABOUT ANYTHING YOU POST
If you want to go back 5000 years ago, then let's go!
Moses led the Israelites back to the land in which they came from. The Ancient Hebrews left Israel/Palestine for Egypt because of the famine. Then when they returned they found foreigners living on their land.
Palestine was originally Byzantine lands and the Muslims swept out of Arabia to invade/massacre/enslave the Christian people.
But it's not just Palestine that was invaded by Muslims, but also North Africa, Spain, Southern italy, Iran, Central Asia, Afghanistan, India etc....All those lands were previously Christian, Zoroastrian, Hindu, and Buddhist.
Palestine was never a country. It was ruled by the British, who conquered it from the Ottomans, who conquered it from the Turks, who conquered it from the Ayyubids, who conquered it from Crusaders, who conquered it from the Abbasids, who conquered it from the Umayyids, who conquered it from the Byzantines, who conquered it from the Greeks, who conquered it from the Persians, who conquered it from the Babylonians, who conquered it from the Assyrians, who conquered it from the ancient Hebrews.
Israel's founding has the strongest basis on legality. When the state of Israel was founded in 1948, it was done so with the approval of the United Nations, no country country has had this.
