Edit: Blocked the author's name, because it's not my tumblr. I didn't expect so many people to misinterpret it and respond in this way.

Edit 2: This is not from the same author, but it's a reply to them. I think it might help clarify the post for those that are confused:

I normally don't worry about usernames on tumblr, but since there've been some really out-of-pocket misconceptions in the thread, I don't want anyone to harass them.

If you like, I can DM you the tumblr account information, and you can ask them. It seems like for some reason people here are interpreting the post in the worst possible way, and I think the first person to comment on this post was not doing so in good faith, deliberately seeking to derail this thread, and it's worked.

If you check their comment history, it's pretty spammy, with the same comments being made on any post criticizing Israel. They're from kbin, and since I have an account there as well where I can view downvotes, I looked into it and it appears they have an alt account they've used to downvote any comments here supporting Palestine.

There is zero reason "their country of origin" should ever have been referenced here. It is not referenced in the post. At all.

So I actually disagree that it's unclear, unless you REALLY reach.
