    Tensions rise in middle east as one side wants all the land to be subject to a Jewish ethno-state, and the other side, who are not Jewish, don’t want their homes to be consumed by the ethno-state, and no one will compromise.

      Tensions rise in the middle east as the ethnic group that has formed 22 ethno-states in the region is attempting to ensure the 23rd ethno-state will belong to the same ethnic group, while Jews don’t want their homes to be swept into the sea, and no one will compromise.

        Shia and Suna aren’t exactly בית הילל ובית שמאי… So I wouldn’t call it 22 solid. Shia and Suna are 22, but each is……… I don’t know enough geography.

        Why can’t we just be against ethno-states? Even if we believe a Palestinian state would be as bad as or worse than Israel, Israel is the one with the power right now, and they are abusing it. They have no intention of making peace.

          Because the only ethno-state you seem to be against is populated by Jews. Pure accident, I’m sure. Of all the hundreds of ethno-states.

            Personally I am against all ethno-states. Removing an ethnic group from your state is always horrible.
