A painting of Lord Balfour housed at the University of Cambridge’s Trinity College was slashed by protest group Palestine Action.
The painting of Lord Balfour was made in 1914 by Philip Alexius de László inside Trinity College. The Palestine Action group specifically targeted the Lord Balfour painting, describing his declaration as the beginning of “ethnic cleansing of Palestine by promising the land away—which the British never had the right to do.”

the problem is people were already there. Getting their “own state” meant, and still does, forcibly removing the people already there, usually by death.
Poland was given a lot of territory in the west and the Soviet Union took a lot of territory from the east, without mass killings. And yes there were people in all of those regions.
In fact a lot of borders changed after WW2, and the only (or one of very few) place this devolved into a decades long murder fest is the middle east.
Ah. That makes sense. So basically like all contemporary governments in the Americas and Australia and…
Well. Most places except the imperial powers I suppose. Even then, idk! Seems kind of shady.
