    Where are those images from? How do we know where the people are from? Are the yuppies in the top half visiting, or do they live in Israel?

    Btw. if I read that Wikipedia page correctly, roughly 70 percent of Israeli Jews are born in Israel.

      ...this is a meme, not documentation of where the actual people in the photos were born.

      roughly 70 percent of Israeli Jews are born in Israel.

      1-in-3 Israeli Jews being bona fide, first-generation, "I just got here from halfway around the world and your house is now mine" settlers paints a clear picture of the colonial project that is Zionism.

      And if you read this wiki page correctly, in 1947- 77 years ago, ie. 2-3 generations, Palestine (including the now stolen lands of "Israel") was only 30% Jewish at most. No doubt it gets even more damning when one goes into how Israel has been settled so far- the ethnic cleansings (Nakba), the mass migration of Zionists from across Europe and the US...

      Let's not kid ourselves here, everyone knows what is going on. Trying to pretend otherwise demonstrates either fatal ignorance, or something much worse.
