Holy shit it's the old "we improved the land" argument from the trail of tears in the wild. So did you vote for Jackson or did he just win you over after he fucked the Cherokees?

Either you misread the comment or there is something here I don't understand - I don't think jimmydoreisalefty is defending the Israeli settlers at all, or claiming that they improve anything. He's just reporting their method of expansion. Or are you referring to someone else?

No, I think I did misread. I thought he was saying the Palestinians were using sheep to enforce their claim vs the Israeli settlements.

I think there's been so many straight up fascists lurking around that I'm starting to develop a hair trigger.

I think we're all a bit on the edge these days. :)
