    This is a weird comparison. Native Americans were the victims a of horrific genocide similar to Palestinians now.

      I understand it more in a way of “if you think Israel is morally doing the right thing, give native americans back their land.”

        It becomes pretty horrible if you believe that Israel is in the wrong, though, which is probably why people don’t think it works

      is land not supposed to be claimed through war? was biological warfare Evan a crime at the time of its use? who even had property rights to America before the Russians and Europeans came here?

        Morality did not suddenly appear with international law and international law does not define morality now. What an ignorant take. ‘Property rights’ are made up by western colonialists to oppress indigenous peoples.
