    What makes the problem hard is that there are a lot of dickheads on both sides, not just the governments. You can be an oppressed victim AND a dick. These things are not mutually exclusive, unfortunately.

      Plus Israel’s dickery gets blind support from America. I’d guess if the Americans demanded actual concessions from Israel this would no longer be a problem, they’d have two states already. As it is, they have every economic and political incentive to just squeeze the Palestinians harder.

          Have Americans often tried the path to a communist revolution against the state, like how they tell every “bad” country on earth to do it? No? Americans are supportive of every genocide, war crime and terrorist attack ever committed by their government.
