    It’s been Israeli since 1948. It’s not an illegal settlement under international law.

            And what exactly happened between 1946-1948?

            A lot of ethnic violence? Do you want me to start citing examples in '46-'48 of Jews being beaten to death? I presume you are already aware of the reverse being performed on Palestinian Arabs.

              So what’s the relevance of the settlement being founded in 1946?

              Funny how the natives of an area resist colonization.

                So ethnic cleansing is okay regardless of how long it’s been or how internationally recognized a settlement is?

                You can’t justify attacks against a settlement indefinitely because at one point other people lived there.

                  Is it ethnic cleansing when you drive out a colonizer? We are talking about 1946 now, right?

                  So can you explain what you mean by pointing out it was founded before 1948? So that we can stop answering each other with questions.

                    No, we’re talking about a settlement that was founded in 1946 and has been a part of Israel since 1948 being attacked and its civilian population murdered in 2023.
