So because there were violent historic events (half of which were perpetuated colonizers/invading forces) in a region destabilized by colonization/imperialism, that means Israel has the right to genocide the Palestinians living there?

Of course not. I don't know how you got that I 'support genocide' from my post.

My point was merely not to romanticise the past.
