Thousands of Palestinian citizens have been murdered, bombed, targetted, attacked, tricked, and treated unjust by the Israeli's since the 1940s. More apartheid and unjust laws passed against Palestinians in ~1967. 2009-2014 thousands of civilians murdered. More recently, using attacks by Hamas as excuses to blame and target Palestinian civilians (ie. bombing the south after explicitly noting they would be safe there, bombing hospitals, claiming they did it, then later blaming Palestinians and faking evidence. Bombing Churches, arresting innocent families.)

Israeli jurisdiction and ownership of Jerusalem, however, is not recognised by the international community, including the United States.
Under the 1947 UN Partition Plan to divide historical Palestine between Jewish and Arab states, Jerusalem was granted special status and was meant to be placed under international sovereignty and control.

The military invasion and occupation of Palestine has killed thousands if not tens of thousands of men, women, and children. Israel has invaded this nation, is killing its people, taken their land and freedoms. Israel should be condemned and persecuted internationally for its crimes against humanity.

 @9HQ8KQGagreed…4mos4MO

the Palestinian people have lived in the area for thousands of years, and the Israeli state was created by imperialists to create a white ethnostate in the Middle East

 @9H599Q4from Maine disagreed…5mos5MO

Israel came into existence in 1948 as a Jewish state with a Jewish majority (before any Palestinians left Israel) therefore Israel has a right to exist as a country and Jerusalem has been the centre of that Jewish population long before 1948

 @9GKDLYC from New Jersey disagreed…6mos6MO

Israel has rightfully owned their land for years now. They fought to win this land and they did win and it is now theirs. Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, which is NOT Palestinian land.
