While I abhor violence, this is the group that gets the least of my sympathy. Zero, in fact.

Is there a reason why we don't just call it occupied historic Palestine or something similar?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Confusing term for laymen. Also not sure where it would be.

Historic Palestine is all of it.

Occupied Palestine would include the West Bank as well, and technically Gaza too.

God I wish this make them question their beliefs instead of simply bolstering their persecution complex
