You conflate "explusion" with "the end of a colonial occupation". If Belgians had been expelled from Spain it would be completely different from the Belgians leaving the Congo.

I'm not for expelling the Jews from Isreal. Before the ethnic cleansing and then colonial occupation in Palestine began, people of all religions lived in (relative) peace. I think that is possible again.

I am for ending the apartheid in Israel and everyone having the same rights. Would that end Israel as we know it? Yes. It would end 100 years of ethnic cleansing and 4+ months of genocide. Just like the end of the Belgian occupation of the Congo, that would be a good thing.
