Iran’s anti-Israel stance is scary. I get that you may not agree with Israel on many issues but to want to eradicate an entire country is wrong.

What Iran means most likely is the creation of Israel was a mistake (not my words) as the state of Israel was imposed by the Brits and French (and UN) as a way to give space for the Jewish people whom had survived the Holocaust. Without that international push the Palestinians would not have been marginalized and the conflict would not have taken place as there would not have been a whole created state (that was basically born in apartheid).

Not saying I agree with… well… anyone in the conflict. But the right wing Israelis keep pushing their boundaries with the Palestinians and basically have them (Palestinians) caught between a rock and a hard place with no where to go. Are Israelis becoming the same object that once hurt their own people? Maybe - time will tell.
