To the dismay of some of their Democratic colleagues, Squad members’ reactions to Hamas’ attack included decrying the “cycle of violence” between Israelis and Palestinians and demanding an end to U.S. military assistance to Israel.

True, and one answer would be expedited citizenship for any Israeli willing to cede their Israeli citizenship. But there’s a certain hypocrisy in saying that with that as an American where it’d be taking people from one settler colonial nation to another. And leaving the Palestinians with a lot of rubble that once was infrastructure isn’t great either. Offering Palestinians refugee to citizen pathways as well may also help.
And yeah I do believe that there are quite a few Israelis who want a shared secular state. That state is what I believe to be the ideal path to peace. But it isn’t my land or my conflict. I’m just someone from the country that keeps arming one side and helped raise and radicalize Netanyahu. My scope is more in line with what my country can do without causing problems
