You can play the blame game all you want, but what's going to help anyone today?
Well isn't that fucking rich, since Israel right nowtoday is committing a genocide, a real, actual ethnicity-wiping-out, mass-child-murder genocide. I think we can go ahead and "play the blame game" there and blame Zionists for doing a bit worse than an oopsie. What makes you saying that even more tone deaf is that the Zionists are trying to victim-blame it on Palestinians! Maybe once everyone understands who really is to fucking blame here, it will make helping people today a lot more possible.
I am not personally responsible for what people did decades before I was born.
You are personally responsible for any ways in which you benefit from the continued oppression of a people whose stolen land many of them were murdered for that you continue to live on.
Why -- and where -- should I evacuate?
Why? You're asking why should you give back something your parents stole from people that are still asking for it back (the ones who survived anyway)? As for where you should "evacuate," you could probably just stay there in the post-occupation Palestine, it just wouldn't be an apartheid ethnostate, rather a state that doesn't deny the human rights of people by their ethnicity and religion and actually affords justice with equity, part of which includes returning land to those individual people and families it was stolen from. In fact if you're not in a house that literally belonged to a violently-evicted Palestinian family, or in a house that was built over the bulldozed ruins of homes of Palestinians, then you may be fine living exactly where you are right now. I know you have the settler-colonial mindset of being afraid of violent reprisal for the crimes your parents previously committed and your government currently is committing, but no, actually most people even after horrendous oppression don't feel the need or even desire to go on a killing spree of their oppressors. White settler South Africans were afraid of that too, but no, turns out oppressed people tend not to behave like violent settler colonists themselves did. If you were still afraid of that anyway, you could as you said, evacuate since from my understanding many western states would sponsor you to move there.
Two states living peacefully side by side is the only future that isn't a genocide.
This is complete nonsense. I hope you read the rest of the thread, because this fact has been made clear. There is precedent for this.
