Why would that feel good? They are in perpetual conflict with not only the Arabs in the territory they occupied (most of which they eventually had to give back) but their neighbors.
The Zionists, of whom I am one, want Israel to be left alone so that the Jews there can live in peace.

If you have a poll of how East Asians feel about the use of the word "Oriental" please post it. I could not find any. The word has never been used as a derogatory term, like "Chink," "Nip," or "Slant Eye."Most of you know how painful it is for me to support Joe B131. But when he's right, he's right!
Asian vs. Oriental: Decoding Common Word
Mix-Ups
When it comes to describing people, places, or things from Asia, you may have heard the terms “Asian” and “Oriental” being used interchangeably. However, there is a distinction between the two words that is important to understand.
We should clarify which of the two words is the proper term to use. While “Asian” is widely accepted and commonly used, “Oriental” is considered outdated and even offensive by some. The term “Oriental” originated from the Eurocentric view of the world, where the East was seen as exotic and mysterious. It is now seen as a term that perpetuates stereotypes and promotes a colonial mentality.
On the other hand, “Asian” is the preferred term to describe people or things from the continent of Asia. It is a more inclusive term that recognizes the diversity of cultures, languages, and religions in the region.
It is important to note that the term “Oriental” is still used in some contexts, such as in reference to rugs or other material goods that are produced in the East. However, even in these cases, it is best to use more specific terms to avoid perpetuating harmful stereotypes.
In this article, we will explore the differences between “Asian” and “Oriental” in more detail, and why it is important to use language that is respectful and inclusive.

Unless someone stalks and attacks me personally, I never put anyone on ignore. How else would I know what my opponent is thinking?
Why intentionally offend someone? Using the word "Oriental" when describing a person shows either your ignorance or your wish to be deliberately offensive.
Then they should get their asses off Palestine's land.
No, the term probably goes up there with "Negro" or "Colored", not directly insulting, but also outdated and condescending.
The land does not belong to the Palestinians any more. When it did it was a third world dump. The Jews turned it in to a first world oases of civilization.
So by your dubious logic, it's okay if someone steals your home if they can make a better use out of it?
The Jews did not initiate the use of violence. The Arabs did. At that point the Jews had to right to expand their borders at the expense of the Arabs.
The Jews bought land from the Turkish landlords.
Not this sad ass excuse again (which isn't even true because very few Jews lived in Palestine before the British took it over with Arab assistance and then stabbed them in the back.)
Pot meet kettle.
not really,
I only put people on ignore if they are boring.
I use memes because to use anything else is a waste of effort.
From the 1880s to the 1930s, most Jewish land purchases were made in the coastal plain, the Jezreel Valley, the Jordan Valley and to a lesser extent the Galilee.[13] This was due to a preference for land that was cheap and without tenants.[13]...
I post on many subjects. My racial comments have been denounced. They have never been debunked. They are obviously true to anyone with extensive experience with whites, Orientals, and colored people.
Blah, blah, blah.
Where is the Department of Race Realism at any major university.
