But I'm not sure guilt is the right concept here or if nations can fall collectively under the same concepts as a natural person.

You can argue that the children of aggressors are first and foremost humans that have the same rights as any other human but by living on in this case Arab land, they live on stolen land, justifying eviction? Jose Sammut (npub1yj6…vhk7) this would be the property-rights case?

Who decides who is the rightful owner of the land? Rothbard makes a strong case for "Arabs" and certainly there is no shortage of families to justify claims on the land but how would you resolve this? If the other side of the argument has nukes, civil discourse only gets you so far.

As long as secrecy rules, ethical considerations are just of academic value. What can be done about this?

On X, suggesting that the October 7th attacks were self defense gets you attacked like crazy and of course, killing randomly won't pass as an attempt to evict squatters. What could they have done instead? What can others do?
