Yeah, sure. This specific conflict of Zionist settler-colonialism has been going on for 5000 years. /s 🙄

That is not what I’m saying. The greater Jerusalem area has been in conflict for millennia. It’s shrouded in a different veil over time, but the core conflict remains over control of the Middle East, specifically access to the Mediterranean and control of the trading routes between Africa, Asia and Europe. Over the years this has become entangled with religious fanatische, but at its core, it’s the same conflict that’s been going on since people first settled the region.

Stop overgeneralizing things. No one concerned about the genocide in Gaza draws connections to the fucking Crusades.

Historical continuances aren’t your thing aren’t they? History is nothing but connection and ideas. To give you some perspective:

Current German ownership disputes between the church and the government can be traced back to inheritance disputes that arose because of the fall of the Roman Empire.
