I think Sisko gets misunderstood on this point. It's not unlike Picard in First Contact, when he starts to take the Borg incursion too personal.

    The Jewish people live on stolen land. Remind me what happened on May 14, 1948. This isn't some ancient claim. It was a bait and switch by England. Benny is just getting old and deciding like all the old boomers that he's going to solidify some legacy and die off unaccountable.
