You’re trying to moralize colonization by playing victim chess. But here’s the simple truth that breaks your whole argument: Oppression doesn’t justify replacement. Were Jews oppressed in Arab lands? Yes, in some cases. Just like Christians were. Just like Muslims were. Just like everyone else under different rulers, in different centuries. That’s called history. Not a permission slip for ethnic cleansing. And let’s not pretend Zionism rose from the ashes of Baghdad. It didn’t. It rose in Europe. Forged in Vienna cafés and Paris salons. Funded by London. Imposed by Balfour. Enforced by British bayonets. Its victims weren’t medieval tyrants. They were Palestinian farmers. And no, you don’t get to hijack the trauma of diaspora Jews to justify bulldozing the homes of people who had nothing to do with that oppression. That’s like burning someone else’s house down because your grandfather was bullied across town. Your logic is simple and absurd: "Because some Jews were once oppressed by some Arabs, Zionism gets a blank check." That’s not context. That’s trauma laundering. Now let’s talk about your Copts argument. You’re defending a military occupation by pointing at someone else’s discrimination? That’s not justice. That’s whataboutism on colonial steroids. Zionism didn’t rise to protect Jews from Arab persecution. It rose to transplant a European-style nation-state onto land already inhabited. A land whose people had to be removed, renamed, and rewritten to make the project work. And it’s that removal—not Jewish history—that Palestinians resist. Now, your closer: "Muslims can freely practice in Zionist Israel." Tell that to the families praying under rubble in Gaza. To the men beaten at Al-Aqsa during Ramadan. To the 2 million caged in an open-air prison where religion doesn’t shield you from drones. So let’s be clear: Arabs didn’t conquer to replace. Zionism did. You say you want fair criticism? Then start with this: The trauma of one people doesn’t entitle them to erase another. And no injustice, past or present, gives you the right to wear the victim’s clothes while playing the role of the executioner.

I’m not even fully disagreeing with your point. But it is a whitewashed romanticized view of history in front of an ideological backdrop. It’s a bit rich to accuse me of being allergic to context while at the same time leaving out ALL of the historical context of Jews being…
