Everyone screams Israel stole the land, but here’s the truth: Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, and Israel all formed around the same time, carved from the Ottoman Empire’s ruins. After World War One, Britain gave us Jordan in 1946. France split Lebanon in 1943, Syria 1946. Egypt 1922. Israel? 1948. No ancient kingdoms—just colonial borders. All these states, same origin story. But only Israel, tied to 3,000 years of Jewish history—temples, coins, scrolls—gets branded colonizer. Why? It’s not history’s fault. It’s the Islamic rejection of any Jewish sovereignty, rooted in ideologies that erase Jewish presence, even as end-time narratives justify wiping them out. If everyone’s a colonial kid, why’s only Israel illegitimate? Think about that.
