You wrote, "When Jews were facing genocide and unable to find refuge anywhere else, it was completely legitimate for them to flee to their ancient homeland. . .". Assuming this is a reference to the holocaust, I think it's important to remember that modern Zionism very much predates the holocaust. We have to clarify that the state of Israel is not a 'reward' for having suffered through the holocaust or some kind of holocaust compensation, but rather the moral and political underpinnings of Jewish statehood were already there.

I'm honored to be your first commentator : )

Total kudos. Couldn't find a single thing to take issue with. Let's celebrate!

I saw such comments as well, and am thankful you've pushed back.
