This is completely, provably historically false.

So you're going to prove it, right?

Nobody was inhabiting those lands before the Jews first settled there

The Jews came from the Canaanites, and they were not the first people in the Levant either, so you are wrong on top of wrong.

it's flat out factually inaccurate to claim the Palestinians were there first.

Link to where I said that Palestinians were the first people in the Levant, or fuck right off with your collection of straw men.

You want there to be a process for Apple to give your account away to someone else against your wishes?

That's a gross mischaracterization. This is Apple refusing to give control of the accounts of children to the person with parental control of the children. People demanding that this only be done under court order are neglecting to note the fact that there is already a court order giving her parental control, which is in the first paragraph of the summary.

I've been through this. My Apple ID now ends in +A because my ex-fiancé owns the one with my regular address. Because it was easier for me to give it to her and start over. Would I have preferred a way to split the account so she could keep her purchases and I could keep Angry Birds? Yes. But there wasn't one, so I did what I had to.

No, you have not been through this, because that is a wholly different scenario. There are literally zero similarities between this and that because you were using a shared account. That was completely your own fault. In this case, the children have their own accounts, and Apple is refusing to recognize a court order giving care, custody, and control control of those children to a specific parent. Instead they are arguing that their rules are more important than those of the government, and willfully assisting a parent without CCC of the children with abuse of a custody agreement despite being provided evidence of this CCC.

Yes, followers of absolutely any religion are marks, but not all religions are created equal.

On the other hand all of the Abrahamic religions do suck. Judaism was developed to give Jews title to lands other people were living in already, and where they were never more than an ethnic minority. Christianity was developed in order to get rid of the Jews. Islam was created for basically the same reason as Judaism, just for a different group. It's all political.

Open Source is not the magic wand to fix every security issue

Straw man

how many issues have sat in Linux for years or even decades before being found and addressed?

How many issues have sat in Windows for years or even decades before being found and addressed? You will NEVER KNOW because that information is a SECRET. You're acting like Linux isn't superior from a security standpoint when we all know it is, and it's sad. Bill Gates will never appreciate you.
