  • This may be a stupid question, but why did we need to create Israel in the first place? If my memory from my shitty American education serves me, they had all these survivors of the Holocaust with nowhere to go, so they created Israel for them to live peacefully, fuck whoever was already living there.

    But why couldn’t they all just go back home? I know everyone was shipped off across Europe to the camps but like… surely they remembered where they lived before? Everything was bombed to hell but that’s the same for whoever lived there, Jewish or not. Am I missing a piece that makes the need for their own country to make sense?
