I get what you are saying but I want to point out that SOME American families have been in the US since before it was the US.

For instance, my family has been in what is now the US since the 1640s. My family had a farm that was in the family for many generations in fact, but I don't miss it. I have bought and sold many, many houses over the years.

My family has been around for a while too but I was not aware of any kind of generational properties. So to me, moving to a new place is no big deal. Still I can understand anger of being uprooted from one's homelands. It's not fair, it's not right. However, sorry no guarantees that life is going to be fair to you.

The Israeli government does not hold much power?

How are you linking the Golan heights into this thread?

You cited the 1947 plan and claimed “the Arabs” to reject that plan. Annexing the Golan Heights was the most effective violation of the plan, it is obvious that Israel is not interested in staying within its borders.

Israel keeps occupying other people’s lands. “The Arabs” don’t.

Not fascists.
Terrorists.

State terrorism - Wikipedia

The impetus to take Gaza for Jews by booting
all Palestinians is on the increase.

I am disgusted that my tax dollars support
this evil regime. So I continue to take legal
measures to reduce my tax liability, eg,
invest in measures to cut non-deductable
costs, rather than to increase income.
**** the US government.
Starve the beast.

From your own article, the Israeli government is not run by fascists, sigh.

Israel's history from 1947 to the present is quite complex. From what I understand of it, your conclusion doesn't hold up to much scrutiny.

As one example, Israel was attacked by various Arab nations in 1967, and during that war, Israel won land on several fronts. In general, winners of war keep the land they've won. But in this case, even though Israel was not the aggressor, they returned the land they won as an act of good faith. The opposite of what you're claiming.

As another example, in 2005, Israel unilaterally uprooted thousands of it's own citizens from Gaza, resettled them outside of Gaza, and gave Gaza to the Palestinians, again as an act of good faith.
