I’m afraid some of those Christian Zionists are in my family, or at least Evangelicals. It’s disgusting that b/c some of these ignorant people in my country believe the Holy Bible is a real estate agent and that Palestine really belongs to the Jews just b/c they were there 2,000-3,000 years ago, this genocide is being carried out. It’s astonishing that I was told by my younger brother, whom I’m very close to btw, that Israel should have nuclear weapons, but Iran shouldn’t. Another family member told me that there’s no such thing as a Palestinian, the Mike Huckebee line. The more I see this despicable thing called genocide being carried out and that there are still people out there who support Israel, especially in the US, the more I want to leave this country.😢☮️🇵🇸

I recently read a credible article that continuous Palestinian presence there can be traced back 14,000 years.

Sadly there’s no where to go.

But if you find a place ….please let me know.

There is, Kaylene. It’s affectionately known as the Emerald Isle.

I’ve haven’t been there for a number of years, but the first photo of a dead Palestinian child I saw was in Sinn Fein’s newspaper there.

The Irish people are fanatically supportive of human rights, having experienced very few themselves until fairly recently, historically.

And there’s the quality of life there, the amazing people, and the mystical magical beauty of the land itself. Unfortunately I believe that one needs Irish heritage in order to obtain a visa to reside there.

Sadly, I have none.

Actually, you can get EU citizenship, or even residency in various EU countries, and then you can reside where you like within the EU. What you are talking about is direct heritage for automatic citizenship, but that's only one route.

So if there were actually no such thing as a Palestinian (a statement I do not agree with), then it would be alright to kill all the people they are killing?
