    Interesting how you are you describe this is a complex issue, even posting links to proof, and still deny it at the same time.

    Is that much cognitive dissonance uncomfortable for you? Does it hurt?

      The history is complicated due to the decades of Disinformation by the Israeli and Western State Departments. Whether to support a genocide or not is not complicated.

        Interesting that you’ll only admit that I’m right within the bounds of what supports your argument and then deny, as you, yourself, pointed out everything else.

        That’s called cherry-picking, and it’s a logical fallacy.

          Cherry picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of pointing to individual cases or data that seem to confirm a particular position while ignoring a significant portion of related and similar cases or data that may contradict that position.

          I did not do this so explain what exactly I cherry picked. Zionism, which is what the current conflict is about, has only existed for a little over a 100 years.
