Israel as a settler colonial entity is around 100 years old. Before that, Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived in the same area with very little sectarian violence for around 800 years.
You'd say "its nuanced" about colonizers killing indigenous tribes and the indigenous tribes fighting back.
You're straight up doing it though, like, your nuanced bullshit around Israeli settlers and indigenous Palestinians.
Consider that you have to keep declaring victory because you're aware on some level that you're wrong on this.
This you?

That is what your little middle school demonstration of informal logical fallacies are though, you're substituting arguments for "um actually fallacy" like it is some checkmate that dismisses everything people are saying.
Notice how you went for an "um actually I didn't technically say those words" instead of responding to this:
Genocide isn't morally complicated, and the fact that you're debate broing about it defensively when people say shit that is just objectively correct, like, "Israel is a settler colonial state commiting genocide" is a real indication that maybe you should step back for five minutes and check in with yourself.
