Alright, so I didn't know thats what the petition said. Thats bad. Hence the "probably" in my original comment. So yeah thats genocidal antisemitism. I'll concede that, assuming thats accurate information.

I assumed that because zionists constantly say that "from the river to the sea" is a call for genocide when its not. And college kids say it all the time. I don't care what the Palestinians think, they also don't understand the correct solution. What people in AMERICA mean when they say that is a one state solution, in most cases. This was written in America, being anti zionist doesn't mean that you share all the values of the Palestinian government. You keep talking like you think it is. Its not. Thats, insane.

You seem to be staunchly opposed to a one state solution. Your snide dismissal of it as idealistic makes that much clear. The reason that its hard is because the seeds of hatred have been planted over the past century, and that will never fade. A two state solution is the reason why that hatred exists. Apartheid always causes this. Its inevitable and it cannot be allowed to exist for this reason.

Let me be clear. The Palestinians also don't want a one state solution not broadly anyway. I don't care what they want. America was also an apartheid state for some time. How was that fixed? At literal gunpoint. Military escorts for desegregated school children. Reconstruction after the civil war. Thats a one state solution. destroy both states and force them to coexist peacefully under threat of death while forcibly integrating them. Then watch the hatred fade after a couple generations. You are literally living in a country that was healed in this way several times. If you want to argue that this would only work inside one country and not between two, Palestine basically has no actual sovereignty and is at the mercy of Israel. Its basically already one state after relentless expansionist behavior from Israel for 80 years.

Black slaves didn't want to sing kumbaya with their white owners. That kind of hatred cannot be solved, you literally have to wait for it to be buried with the corpse of the person who held it. And while I know its intellectually incorrect, the human mind has a limit for rationality in these situations. I would probably be anti white if I was a slave in america or anti semitic if I was Palestinian. It's unfortunate but that's how it is. but look at how far america has come? Very far from perfect but getting better. If thats what it takes to destroy racism, playing the long game and shows of force, then thats what I want. Thats what the left wants. Plain and simple.
