Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Oh you mean allies of the jews?

So nobody in this world?

Stop shifting the goalposts. Israel is legit and the only way to prevent another holocaust. Their government right now is a different story. And a "Palestine" country doesn't exist. Its a terrorist organization.

no, I mean the allied powers during the war. Im not interested in the technicality that Britain was oppressing an arab nation at the time, Palestine was not involved.

That was Britain during that time.

No it was a nation oppressed by Britain, seeking independence. They didnt consider themselves British. My mind's not gonna be changed by old, oppressive British colonialism.

You don't have to "consider yourself part of [insert country]" to be part of said country.

Man you are really adamant old Britain being imperialistic tyrants is a justification for this. Well Ive already said its not gonna change my mind, and its just us two talking, so I guess Ima head out.
