I’m not messianic and not interested in biblical nonsense. Palestine has existed a very long time and modern Israel is a colonial settler state. Palestinians are historically comprised of many faiths.

Side note: for those thinking our corporate oligarchs already did that- I don’t disagree. It’s been slipping away for a couple of decades. I’m getting at what the Christian nationalists want who are funding this particular vein with dark money.
