Seriously, what Israel is doing today is no different from what the Nazis did before and at the beginning of World War II, extreme nationalism, illegal expansion, annexation of foreign territory claiming it historically belongs to them, propaganda using the latest technology, terrorizing neighbors, military at the center of society.

t’s basically the idea that Jews should have their own nation in any form or shape.

Honestly I don't see how ethnonationalism is a positive idea no matter what the ethnicity is

Is the idea of Palestine an ethnonationalist one, though?

Palestine as such describes the whole region of which Gaza, the Westbank and Israel are part of and historically includes a lot more people than just one specific group. Even Arab Jews who predate the arrival of many of Israels current populations ancestors.

The partition of the land was ment to create a state for Jewish people on the one hand and a state made up out of leftovers for everyone else living in the region. And everyone else is more than just "the Palestinians".
