Israel is largely populated by refugees from ethnic cleansing by Arab states. For example the French embassy in Baghdad stands on Jewish land that was stolen by the Iraqi government.

famously, jews aren't allowed in baghdad and never have been. and the palestinians today aren't descendants of jews. and the just thing when a people have been wronged is to wrong the descendants of the people who did the wrong thing, because we're cavemen, that's why i support genocide by native americans against everyone else in north and south america, which i'm sure you support as well.

Pro-Palestinians generally argue that Hamas is entitled to constantly fire rockets at Israel because Israel took some Palestinian land 80 years ago. Following that same logic, why isn't Israel allowed to constantly fire rockets at Iraq for taking Jewish land even more recently?

i don't know who you're talking to, but i would argue hamas has a right to self-defense against the ongoing genocide that israel is comitting against palestinians. what's happening right now is most important.

The population of (non-Jewish) Palestinians has grown exponentially throughout the years since 1948, and has grown by 7% in the past 3 years.

Only Israel can conduct a “genocide” that results in a population increase.
