  • The League of Nations created a mandate for the foundation of a state for the Jews in the Levante. So there’s a basis in international law for it.

    Most of the land on which Israel was founded in 1948 was state owned land and land owned by Jews they had purchased.

    No Palestinian would have lost their land, if the partition plan would have been accepted. Instead they chose war and lost it.

    Prior to 1900 the land was only sparsely populated in the first place.

    More than 800,000 Jews were expelled from Arab and Muslim countries in the region and had to flee to Israel. It was a population exchange like India and Pakistan around the same time.

    Several ethnicities live in Israel and have the same citizenship and rights. Israel is the state for the Jews, just like Poland for Polish, Spain for Spanish, and so on. All of these have minorities living in them as well.

    You don’t seem to have a good understanding of nation, state, ethnicity, and their relationships.





  • It’s useful mostly as a desktop operating system that’s easy to use and fast and doesn’t come with as much crap as Windows, Linux, macOS. Haiku feels more like your personal computer, not Microsoft’s or Apple’s computer.

    Today it doesn’t solve any needs besides nostalgia and curiosity. If you’re generally interested in desktop operating systems and user interface design, it’s worth a look.
