Zionism has manipulated Judaism for colonial purposes, and equating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism is a false narrative that distorts historical Jewish attitudes towards Zionism.

Many Jews likely remained in Palestine and converted to Christianity and then Islam. Zionism connected Jews to Palestine politically much later, and initially, it was a Protestant Christian project.

Palestine was a thriving rural country with a recognized history and vibrant society before Zionists arrived, disproving the claim of an empty land.

Zionism shares characteristics with colonial projects in South Africa, Australia,Irland, and the United States, and Israel's treatment of Palestinians aligns more with a colonial occupation than a national liberation.

The Zionist project envisioned success only through the forcible removal of Palestinians, evidenced by massacres, forced displacement, and the destruction of villages.

The 1967 war was not imposed but rather seen by Israel as an opportunity to seize all of Palestine, fulfilling longstanding Zionist goals.

Before the 1967 war, Palestinians lived under military rule without basic human or civil rights, governed by military commanders with absolute power.

The Oslo Accords were a tactic by Israel to deepen its occupation, not a sincere effort to achieve peace. The Second Intifada was portrayed as terrorism to justify military actions.

Israel’s actions since 2006, including the blockade and military assaults, have led to the tragedy in Gaza, with the situation escalating to what many consider a form of genocide.

The two-state solution has been undermined by Israel's continuous settlement expansion. It is presented as a solution but is, in reality, manipulated to serve Israeli and Western interests.

The Israel Lobby exerts significant influence over U.S. foreign policy, often prioritizing Israeli interests. This influence can lead to policies that may not always align with broader U.S. national interests or public opinion.

Settlement expansion in the West Bank undermines peace efforts by fragmenting Palestinian territories and making the viability of a contiguous Palestinian state increasingly unfeasible. This expansion is viewed by many as a means to assert control rather than promote peace.

Israeli security measures, including checkpoints, the separation barrier, and military operations, often result in significant restrictions on Palestinian movement, economic hardship, and violations of human rights, indicating a prioritization of security over the well-being of Palestinians.

Western media often exhibits inherent biases, portraying Israel as the default victim and Palestinians as aggressors. This skewed representation influences public perception and undermines objective understanding of the conflict's complexities.

Many Israeli military operations employ disproportionate force, leading to high civilian casualties and extensive destruction. These actions often go beyond necessary defense measures and contribute to escalating violence.

The blockade severely restricts the movement of goods and people, leading to shortages of medical supplies, clean water, and essential services, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

Palestinians have engaged in numerous peace talks and negotiations, demonstrating a willingness to reach a peaceful resolution. However, continued settlement expansion and lack of genuine commitment from Israeli leaders have hindered meaningful progress.

Israeli airstrikes and ground operations have frequently resulted in significant civilian casualties and destruction of civilian infrastructure, raising serious concerns about the intentional targeting of non-combatants.
