    Lemme ask you a question: how did Jerusalem get its name, and who lived there and named it thousands of years ago?

      Romans.

      Jokes aside, the Bible states that Jews conquered the city from Jebusites. There’s no scientific consensus on who Jebusites actually were. But they were not Israelites, that’s for sure.

      Will the answer justify the genocide?

      No.

      Why should anyone care, and why do you deflect to this with less integrity than literal Nazis, who use the same blood and soil arguments you do, but at least tend to own their genocidal positions?
