It was like that with every Jew that lived among Muslims. They are intolerant savages, been that way before Israel came into existence.You're grandmother grew up during a time where people interacted face-to-face. Where you took responsibility for your actions and treated others with respect. And when someone wanted to start a fight, you're always ready to finish it. Her society didn't have that strong element of narcissism, that permeates our generation. So I doubt she's a Zionist. In order to be a Zionist, you have to be an asshole. And I don't think your grandmother is an asshole.My grandmama's ID says "Born in Palestine".
Palestine![]()
She was born in Israel, 1919, the original family immigrated in early 1883.
So yeah, I guess you can say she's aPalestinian![]()

What she really was is a native Zionist Israeli.
If she's a Palestinian-Jew, ask her what it was like back then living in the same area with Palestinian-Arabs? I'm willing to wager her stories won't be the same as yours.
Fact that you put something in feathers and glued a beak to it, still doesn't make it a duck.
She's in heaven, I cannot ask her anything, anymore.
And she came from a generation when it was a pride to be a Zionist fighter.
After her ranch got burned up by Arabs, she, let's put it into a civil manner, didn't like them very much.
She was defined as a right-winger Zionist. That's how she saw herself and that's how she let others see her.
Her memories of the Arabs were not pleasent ones.
