@jacobin By asking this question they want an affirmation, usually the case when the conscience of guilt is not giving them enough to seek that within themselves.

The question "Does Israel have a right to exist?" isn't a real inquiry about the rights of nations.
It's a manipulation of discourse, a litmus test that forces Palestinians to offer theoretical assurances before their real political grievances can even be heard. jacobin.com/2026/04/israel…

@DalrympleWill @Aakar__Patel And yet Economist touts itself as the “newspaper” of reason. Can’t believe how bias can eclipse reason and impact the quality of making sense. By asking “does Israel have a right to exist?” They’re looking for an affirmation they cannot quite accept internally.

@gregkellyusa What a silly thing to say. Why did we need this in the first place? What is the purpose of putting these lives in harm's way anyway?

@j_fishback This q would never have mattered if Palestinians' lands were not stolen by them. By posing this question they (often assertively) seek affirmation. France or India wouldn't ask this question because they know that everyone knows the borders of their countries are legit.

Sen. Tim Kaine: "Your colleague said you got drunk at an event at a bar and chanted, 'Kill all Muslims.'...Isn't that the kind of behavior that, if true, would be disqualifying for somebody to be Sec. of Defense?" Pete Hegseth: "Anonymous false charges." Kaine: "Not anonymous."
