      Yep, starting with the first paragraph. The author might have skipped his Sunday school or something. In Christianity it’s considered that “God’s chosen people” has been extended to the whole humanity.

      “I don’t think these people even know what that truly means” - maybe most of them don’t, but they are using the designation correctly.

      “Arab citizens of Israel have the same rights as Jewish citizens” - well, the statement is kinda true ; technically false due to Israeli laws being a patchwork of weird shit with some inheritance from the Ottoman millets system, which is the same as apartheid give or take, but that’s not why the author is wrong. It’s just that most of Arabs living under Israeli military control are not citizens of Israel.

      Why am I even commenting that, there are sometimes outrageous texts with which it’s a dubious, but still pleasure to argue with. This one is just some jellybrain’s product.
