Basic premise is made up a la CRT land. US is not 'based on genocide'. It is based on Dutch finance, English banking, Industrialization, Enlightenment ideals and much more, and also there were some abuses of natives in the North, many of whom had agency, collaborated, gained, many of whom lost to whites, but had lost to Indian tribes prior. Slavery also contributed, in small part, but like your 'genocide', its only a sliver of the story.

So, the rest of this is just sophomoric, from there on. Israel is not a colonial state. Palestine has never been a state.

That said, I sympathize with poor people in Palestine. The fact you are pro Hamas is a clear indication of how you should quite literally "go live with them." Don't live in the West if you are on the side of maniacs. You can only write this because of Enlightenment ideals.
