    Two nitpicks:

    • that was said by Abdul Rahman Hassan Azzam, who is Egyptian, not Palestinian
    • there’s a huge difference between a threatened expulsion of some colonizers (words) and actual genocide of the indigenous population (actions)

        You’ve already made up in your mind that the Palestinians are genicidal, in order to justify their colonization, oppression and murder by the Israelis. You do this for your own peace of mind. You need to do that because if you didn’t, you would see it for what it is, a people fighting for its liberation. You require the Palestinians were all perfect pacifists, going along with their own ethic cleansing and genocide.
