Isreal does not have a right to exist, Israelis do, but Isreal doesn't. It only exists because the land it was on was forcibly taken from Palestinians. Edit: spelling

I agree no state has a right to exist

But Palestinians do not have the right to fight back against their occupiers, They should die quietly while everyone with the moral high-ground says what Israel doing is bad and proceeds to do nothing about it.

Israel, as an idea to act as a haven after the 2nd world war for European Jewry, is dumb to begin with for a plethora of reasons at the time.

That said there're plenty of states through history that begin under dubious pretenses. Their citizenry doesn't deserve wanton violence nor does its necessarily deserve wholesale dissolution.

Israel does have a right to exist. The Israelis don't have a right to take land forcibly from people.
