@frankthefrstr@dilanesper They did own it. You are assuming there is one “correct” owner of the land and working backwards to get mad at people that died before Palestine even existed. Besides, Resolution 181 only recommended dividing the territory on ethnic lines that already existed.
@AdemsanArifi@halaljew British India was not a settler colony, it was an exploitation colony. Not even remotely the same situation. The British were not attempting to wipe out the Indian population and replace them with Englishmen.
@ambaisntreal@Segages1999@Yeenie_Mcbeenie No, Arkham city is a separate place where the second game takes place. Gotham isn’t playable until the 3rd game. Larper=you
@HardBoyJoe@noskillnoob@BalderdashianLA@gamoroth1@AmanitaFugax Correct, but for example France as a government predates modern French national identity by centuries. France existed before the modern French language did. Palestine was not a nation, government or distinct culture until after British colonization.
@HardBoyJoe@noskillnoob@BalderdashianLA@gamoroth1@AmanitaFugax Never claimed they did. You said Palestine never existing as a sovereign nation wasn’t true, which it is. There has never been a truly independent Palestine at any point in history. Palestine and Israel both developed as national identities around the same time.
@Maxfield1112@Benis_Archer@Lichwiusz@BrilliantMaps Not necessarily true, most of polands autonomy was stripped away by the 1860s, their constitution was abolished and they were divided into Russian governates. Finland was a much more independent kingdom.
@JudgeTweetment@CuriosityonX It makes perfect sense. Our brain takes in light and translates it to images. The light travels at light speed to deliver information. It can only go so fast, meaning some information will be outdated if you are far away. How else could it possibly work?
@JudgeTweetment@CuriosityonX Because the light started traveling 2000 years ago. If you look up at the sun, you are seeing the sun as it was 8 minutes and 20 seconds ago, as that’s how long it takes for light to reach earth.
@skinnylukamvp @Geox369@Makgxnagalx@Sammyveli The events of modern day politics do not retroactively change someone’s ethnicity. Just because many Aramaic speakers were assimilated into the early Arabic caliphates doesn’t mean every Aramaic speaker was actually just an Arab.
@skinnylukamvp @Geox369@Makgxnagalx@Sammyveli Genghis Khan has descendants in India. Does this make him Indian, a nation that didn’t even exist when he was alive?
