was unfair and cruel to the people who lived there at the time. But does that equate to "Israel should not exist.", which is what he is disputing in this video in my opinion.

He makes the comparison to the state of Pakistan. From the info he presented, it does indeed look to me as though the creation of Pakistan was unfair and cruel to far more people and resulted in far more deaths in the transition than was the case with the (re)creation of Israel, and as he said, Israel had existed there before, the state of Pakistan never had existed prior to that.

It does seem that if one is consistent, anyone who claims that Israel should not exist should also claim that Pakistan has no right to exist. In fact, that same claim could apply to America as well, no?
