    Because the very creation of Israel was a settler colonialist state ethnically cleansing the local population.

    I would say their neighbours had plenty to be pissed off about.

        Yes? Especially if the territory of that state is forcibly taken away from others who are living on it

        Creating the United States was similarly terrible as it involved the genocide and ethnic cleansing of Native Americans. Same with Australia. Same with South Africa. Same with Rhodesia.

        Forcibly taking someone’s home and cleansing an area of an ethnicity is certainly regarded as one of the worst actions a group of people can do. And rightly so
