Albert Einstein refused to be associated with Israel, so to honor his legacy, we’ve made his birth city the new Israeli capital in Ulm.

Quickly! Attach the electrodes to his grave! We can power half the world with how fast he’ll start spinning!

I know you're joking but did he respond at all to the idea of a Jewish state on German lands or just to the currently existing Zionist project?

[–] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

Einstein supported the creation of a Jewish homeland in mandatory Palestine, but envisioned it as a one state solution of Jews living equally with Arabs in Palestine, not a Jewish state being created in any form.

[–] ComradeSalad@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 5 months ago

He did not support the idea. He thought it was a bit foolish and fully supported a Jewish migration and homeland in Palestine. But not as an independent state.

I know this is a meme but I did genuinely have this thought. Because one of the reasons I saw people cite for the creation of Israel was as reparations for what the Nazis did, so to that I wondered why not just take a chunk out of Germany instead since they were the main perpetrators.

[–] landlords_morghulis@lemmygrad.ml 23 points 5 months ago

I kindly remind those people that the zionist occupation and colonization of Palestine began decades before WW2 ended.

The white is all the land that Germany lost after WWII, they could have made a Jewish state out of that or part of it.

How about the British diaspora who taught the Nazi Germans all the war crimes and savage ideology from the Indian Residential fake school death camps that started in 1850s and contunued in secret after 1998?

i get the joke, but if that was the case, gotta scratch half of each european country

[–] romaselli@lemmygrad.ml 24 points 5 months ago

Don't threaten me with a good time

[–] ghost_of_faso2@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 5 months ago

make it england

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 20 points 5 months ago

If we were going to put it anywhere we should have carved Israel out of Germany after WW2.

[–] ledlecreeper27@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 5 months ago

They honestly should have done this with East Prussia after WWII instead of splitting it between Poland and Russia (Kaliningrad).

Ethnostates are bad no matter where they are

[–] Blursty@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 5 months ago

They wouldn't be allowed to get away with genociding white people though.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 14 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Another viable alternative: give them half of Texas. It'll work out great, American evangelicals are batty for Israel (the state), now only a short drive away, and Israel will get to have their batshit insane theocratic ethnostate.

[–] triplenadir@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

all of Texas already reserved for giving back to indigenous Americans sorry

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 8 points 5 months ago

Oh dip, you're right

[–] landlords_morghulis@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 5 months ago

Texas was invaded and stolen from Mexican territory (after the war of independence from Spain) to create a loophole to allow the US to have more slave states.

Israelis belong in the

And that's me being the nicest I have ever been in my life.

If a Zionazi threatens or harms anymore lives... lenin shotgun

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 9 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Why not the Jewish Autonomous Oblast? It already exists, might as well make use of it. It also has Yiddish as an official language.

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago

Wrong Germany

[–] REEEEvolution@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Can we just give them Bavaria. I'd like my Baden-Württemberg zionist free T_T

[–] ComradeSalad@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Monkey paw moment. The new Israel is limited to Bavaria, but all the weird, racist Bavarian hicks migrate to Baden-Württemberg.

No, GDR and west Germany gets colonized by Jews.

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago

How about a one-state solution where we merge the 3 Baltic countries into one country called Israel?

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

Honestly, based

[–] Zrc@hexbear.net 3 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Israel should also get the other half. German "people" can't be trusted with a state.

[–] REEEEvolution@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The GDR showed that to be wrong.

[–] landlords_morghulis@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 5 months ago

not giving Israel all of ~~germany~~ europe is anti-semitic. probably.

[–] Chapo_is_Red@hexbear.net 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] Hazel@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 5 months ago

No please, I live there. Germany is bad enough as is!

[–] mrgreyeyes@feddit.nl 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We all know where that ends.

[–] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 5 months ago

Zionists turning the other half into an open air prison and carrying out a genocide?
