Yes, they did, just like the current Muslim nations displaced the original Jews. Did you know that the Jews build Jerusalem, and that the Palestinians really have no right to it?

but the jews also migrated to the levant

I believe Israel has a right not only to exist but to exist specifically as a Jewish ethnostate. Ethnostates are under attack by the forces of neoliberalism and multiculturalism, but Israel must stand firm in its struggle, once again to serve as an example for other nations

I agree with your first sentence as Judaism is an inherently superior culture compared with all others so far in history. disagree with the rest though. the rest is v bad.

Like, if you don't actually know anybody who lives in gaza and you rant about israel all day I'm basically 100% certain you're trying to flaunt your virtue and signal to the world that it is abundant because white = bad and brown = victim.

Meanwhile all the gay, reform, liberal, secular, dissenting, shia Muslims of the world get tossed the gently caress under the bus by guilty white liberals who want to be woke.

I remember reading somewhere that oil has allowed ME countries to build up population sizes that would be unsustainable without it, so when the oil runs out, there's gonna be a whole lotta death.

a quick googling tells me you're wrong. a lot of countries have a lot of food imports but they are able to be sufficient if they choose to be. others can't but would be able to buy their way out in a pickle (e.g. the U.K.). But the ME and North Africa? hosed.

they lack the cultural wherewithal to build an economy that would enable them to buy food without reliance on oil money and they live in a desert.

it's def gonna be some mad max times over there when the rest of the world kicks oil (or at least for the most part) in like 40-60 years or so

e: tbf Saudi Arabia and I assume others are buying assets (lots of non-oil stuff too) globally like mad so odds are they'll be fine for the most part although yeah there's def gonna have to be some spending cuts and some looks at efficiency bc I doubt building indoor ski arenas is really the best use of money esp when your sewer system is half nonexistent
