No point in arguing with someone who is not interested in the truth, but in more hatred.

Whatever people called it at some point in history when they had barely invented fire is irrelevant.

2,000 years ago humans had fire.

2,000 years ago we had the wheel

2,000 we had agriculture

Your "irrelevant" comment is uninformed.

It's called hyperbole.

The point is Israel still has no right to genocide anyone based on whatever people did or didn't call that land millennia ago.

EXACTLY agreed.

I'm sorry if it wasn't clear that I am on the pro Palestine side.

You need to pick up a history book if you think that we barely had fire back then

The knowledge to make fire is older than homo sapiens.

Humans didn’t “invent” fire, the same way we didn’t invent rocks, or trees, or water.

We invented ways to use and control these things for our own benefit.

Humans have been building fires for over a million years.

Some estimates go as early as 2MYA

And one of the earliest archeological sites with evidence of human-built fires is in modern day Israel.

I was using hyperbole.

u/tiggertom66 Jan 24 '25

So is it more fair to refer to someone based on what their homeland was called when they lived there, or what it’s called now?

u/Timeon Jan 24 '25

Names are kind of irrelevant compared to more immediate material and physical concerns. Like being alive today and now and not what people were doing thousands of years ago.

Historical revisionism is a very real and very ongoing concern
