There's a video. There are witnesses. This happened. Or, prove me wrong.
See, here's the weird thing: If the village voted to be annexed to Israel, it's not colonialism. That's a definite knee jerk response. If they do, and I'm pretty sure that they do, want to be part of Israel because they know the outcome of staying part of Syria under an Islamist regime that doesn't see Druze as a legitimate part of Islam, and it doesn't take a lot of imagination to imagine the results of that, any humanitarian person should be all for that. But it is Israel's hate that makes people want to negate their choices and call it colonialism. It takes blind hatred of Israel to knee-jerk everything Israel is doing in the most negative way possible. Do you do that? I'll let you answer, but I've seen it over and over.
Israel is on the side of good here. They are in the process of remaking the Middle East into a better place. And they are doing so in response to being attacked on at least four fronts. Do you negate their right to defend themselves? Do you negate the right of Israel to exist? Then you are on the side of the terrorists and Iran. Is that wise? I cannot see any world where that has a good outcome.
