Yeah we can't reduce the entirety of the conflict down to antisemitism, the notion of mass immigration of a far off population for the purpose of an ethnostate was always bound to cause conflict
My main countercriticism on this point is that even under pretty uncharitable terms/
Do people really think the Arabs of Palestine didn't understand what Zionism and the Balfour declaration meant for them?
What is amusing with that propaganda is that if you read Jabotinsky, the ancestor of Likud, he understood perfectly well that Arab violence against Jews was not gratuitous but motivated by a desire to resist their dispossession:
Jabotinsky wrote that in 1923 and you can find many other statements by early Zionist leaders making it clear that, unlike today's hasbarists and the clueless morons who listen to them, they understood perfectly well the causes of Arab hostility toward them.
The same is true for people like Benny Morris, who can't be suspected of anti-Zionism, but is also intellectually honest. Once again, I don't give a shit about Palestine (at least no more than I care about Congo, Sudan or any other place where people are murdering each other), I'm just asking that you don't constantly gaslight me with that low-IQ propaganda.
