          It’s wrong. But a lot of past wrong wars set current borders and taken land. At some point you just need to accept it. Just in the ‘800 Europe was completely different and yet no one cares now (mostly)

            The difference between 800s Europe and 1947 Palestine is about 1100 years and the fact that 1947 is still in living memory.

              Sorry I meant 1800/1900. It’s living memory yes but people will keep dying otherwise. Don’t get me wrong I hate it. As much as I hate Russia for trying to do something similar in Ukraine

        “Afrikaners will never accept losing the majority to blacks” - South African apologists in the 1980s.

        If your nation depends on apartheid, it must be rebuilt on a foundation of justice.
