I also mentioned bigotry. I am aware she is a TERF.
“If Blinken and the US administration would have liked this war to be over, this war would be over. Continuing to supply Israel with weapons and to beg Israel to stop the war is quite a farce. This is not international relations, this is a children’s game.” – Gideon Levy, Haaretz
I also mentioned bigotry. I am aware she is a TERF.
Yes, she is Algerian (North African) and that was a major reason if not the reason why she was targeted.
I hope she pays dearly for her racism and bigotry.

tl;dw: they don’t see Palestinians as humans
Here’s another quote where he was more honest [emphasis mine]:
[It is the] iron law of every colonizing movement, a law which knows of no exceptions, a law which existed in all times and under all circumstances. If you wish to colonize a land in which people are already living, you must provide a garrison on your behalf. Or else – or else, give up your colonization, for without an armed force which will render physically impossible any attempts to destroy or prevent this colonization, colonization is impossible, not “difficult”, not “dangerous” but IMPOSSIBLE! … Zionism is a colonizing adventure and therefore it stands or falls by the question of armed force. It is important to build, it is important to speak Hebrew, but, unfortunately, it is even more important to be able to shoot – or else I am through with playing at colonialization.

Yet, nearly half the comments here blame the Palestinians for the natural response Jabotinsky accurately predicted.
Killing the negotiator… Zionists never wanted peace, not even in 1923.
Why did the Greeks, Persians and Romans want it when they were pagan? and the Egyptians long before them.
Trade routes, natural resource, strategic location, …

is doing a lot of lifting
This tacit racism and ahistorical bigotry gets upvoted. Just awful. Western meddling and Zionism is the cause.
No it hasn’t, only since WW1 due to Western meddling.
Europe has a history of more brutal and longer wars. They even brought some wars our way during the Crusades.
The conditions of the US and Iran aren’t the same. Iran has been one of the most consistent and reliable supporters of Palestine since 1979. Also, Palestinians don’t want to leave Palestine. In fact, Palestinian diaspora wants to return.
The Middle East has been a powder keg for a long time,
no, only since WW1 due to French and British designs, and since WW2 due to US and Israel
It is also ironic that a lot of this bigotry is coming from some of the most violent people throughout history, even in peaceful times
What would you say is the defining factor for those competing nationalisms?
indigenous vs. people from Ukraine and Poland
As bad as you may think Israel is, it gets worse. I usually can stomach reading anything, but the following two books by Ilan Pappe were too much for me and I couldn’t finish them.

I am glad the false narrative on Israel is finally being challenged. For years Palestinian, Arab, Muslim and anti-Zionist voices were ignored and marginalized.

Hamas are reacting to a brutal occupation, they didn’t start this. Per international laws their actions are legal and justified.
Yet majority in Israel agrees with him. Listen to Giden Levy speaking in 2015 on how Israeli society lives with the occupation https://youtu.be/3EtNFXL_ykg
