I know this might be unpopular, but as a Muslim I don’t think supporting Israel automatically goes against my faith. A lot of people mix religion with politics, and just because something is framed as a “Muslim issue” doesn’t mean it actually is.
First, Arab nationalism isn’t Islam. Islam is a global religion, not tied to one ethnicity. So I don’t feel obligated to support something just because it’s presented as an “Arab struggle.” That’s more political than religious.
Also, Israel is a democracy. It’s not perfect, but Arab and Muslim citizens have rights, can vote, and participate in government. That’s something I think matters, especially compared to how limited political rights are in many countries in the region.
I also believe Jews deserve a homeland. They’ve faced persecution throughout history, and I don’t see why supporting their right to a state is wrong. Justice should apply to everyone. I’m not saying everything Israel does is right. I just don’t think there’s only one “correct” Muslim opinion on this. It’s more complicated than people make it seem.
