Also, let’s all acknowledge that conquest and settler colonialism are wrong, no matter who does it. That said, not all “conquests” are the same.
@TheOmniLiberal The word “conquest” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Islam didn’t spread across the Middle East, Asia, Africa through what you’re describing as “Arab conquest.” .There are few meaningful similarities between European conquest and “Arab conquest.”.Would you describe.

Isn’t it strange how Muslims are constantly told their religion is backward and outdated, yet we come across arguments like this suggesting we should give Israel a pass for settler colonialism because Europeans wiped out Indigenous populations in the US, Canada, Australia, and.
So by arguing that other countries are also at their root colonial projects (Canada, the US etc), Israelis are seemingly conceding that they are not indigenous to Palestine. Not sure this is what they wanted to signal, but perhaps the pretense could no longer be sustained.

It’s clear by now that @elonmusk is suffering from some form of mental derangement, using faux outrage about 'grooming gangs' to stoke division and hate. If he genuinely cared about the victims, he would centre their suffering instead of painting a false picture that weaponises.
1/13 As Musk, Badenoch & Reform wade in to "Grooming Gang" fiasco, we would like to remind everyone last Tory government DID conduct an INQUIRY into child grooming. It did not find this despicable crime to be somehow exclusively Asian, Pakistani or Muslim .
