Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

The natives struck a deal with the US. Palestinians didn't. South Africa didn't give the Apartheiders a state. One mistake South Africa made was not completely disowning the colonists. Palestinians don't have to make that mistake.
Oh no not a "reverse genocide" apologist. You can't do genocide against colonists. That's called decolonisation.
Deals under duress are no deals at all. Ever read about the Trail of Tears. Tell me now that was a deal that was in good faith by both sides.
Sounds like you just like the idea of killing people.
Yes they had no military leverage left and decided to strike a bad deal.
Palestinians haven't struck a deal. The second Western support for Israel collapses, the whole Apartheid will collapse. And at that point Israel will have no claim to any of the land. It all belongs to Palestinians.
Israel can do a 1948 deal right now if it wants to. Even Hamas said they are willing to accept that extremely bad deal. But they doesn't because they are an expansionist genocidal ethnostate believing they can colonize more. So that is their gamble. And by taking that gamble, Israel still has no right to any land at this very moment.
