has turned into exactly what it was established because of! They fled Nazi persecution of Jews only to turn into a state that kills innocent Palestinian women, children, and elderly in their land grab. They aren't satisfied with the land they were given; they must have the West Bank and Gaza too, just because their "holy book" says so. And so they must raze everything and kill and starve everyone living there because they are all somehow "terrorists", but actually because they are all just inconveniently IN THE WAY.

Or, as my late ex succinctly put it 25 years or so ago, "Israel has lost its soul." Truth. And if you can't see that, you might have a problem.
