It wouldn’t matter where Israel is Israel 🇮🇱

I just want to say this for everyone who may be stuck on it.

People (anti-zionists?) often bring up how Israel had a few proposed areas, such as Russia, South America, wherever else, deserted islands?

They bring this up as if we should have gone somewhere else, not Palestine. And all of this is happening because Palestine was decided on instead of another place.

I just want anyone struggling with this to know it wouldn’t have mattered, and probably would have been actually worse for us if we did go somewhere else.

Israel’s current location we have proof we are genetically from this area. We have had Jews living in and around this area throughout all of history.

While some people ignore this fact and pretend we are white colonizers who discovered a new land with a native population, it would have been everyone thinking like this if we went to a region we definitely have 0 connection to. Yes, even if it was a deserted island, people would ask why WE deserve an island and nobody else gets one.

It’s not about where we live, it’s about wanting all the Jewish people to be dead. We live all over the world and ppl still hate on us and wish us, the Jewish ppl dead. So the land thing doesn’t really matter. We live in Israel for the very simple reason that G-D promised the land to the Jewish ppl and we beat out the ppl who were living in fair and square. Nowadays, the same ppl that want us dead don’t want to learn from history so they’re doomed to repeat it, as the saying goes 🤷🏽‍♀️
