I get that the term "reparations" sets some people off since it's what many African-American activists have asked for for Black descendants of people enslaved during centuries of enslavement with dawn-to-dusk, uncompensated labor (stolen labor).
I'd like to note ironically that Jewish survivors and descendants of the Holocaust received financial benefits, as did Japanese survivors of WWll internment (but Black people NO WAY).
Maybe we should call the rebuilding of Gaza financial benefits instead as there is no way it's not going to be rebuilt...unless of course Netanyahu gets his way and Jewish settlements are built from the "river to the sea" as he recently called for.
