"Let us accept for a moment the false premise popular among anti-Zionists saying that Jews have no connection to the land of Israel besides for them coming to the land in large numbers 150 years ago.
They argue that this justifies displacing 10 million Jews who now live in the land for 150 years and "sending them back to Europe".
Like Billie Eilish finding out now what the consequences of her saying: "no one is illegal on stolen land" and now being asked to vacate her mansion on native land, the question is to all these anti Zionists is: "when are you leaving your stolen land?!"
The people who arrived recently in North America from Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, and Egypt are often those who are saying "Jews should go back to Poland."
What will those people do when they will be asked to "go back to the Middle East"? Will they live by their own mantras?
I recall there being a hearing in my own city of New Haven about the Gaza war and calling for a one sided ceasefire against Israel and the anti Zionists beginning their statements with land acknowledgments saying they acknowledge they "are located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the Quinnipiac, Wappinger, and Paugussett peoples."
I remember thinking to myself with astonishment how these people who acknowledge that they are living on stolen land, are choosing to say that without actually living by their statement and vacating the land, while they think they can tell the indigenous Jews of Israel where and how to live.
So, to all the antizionists out there: before you tell Israelis to "go back to Poland", please consider packing your own bag first and live by your mantras. Don't scapegoat Israel for your own feelings of guilt or fantasies."
