    I hope you’re looking in a mirror when you roll those emoji eyes, since you’re cherry picking and ignoring an awful lot of history and context of actions. You look from the perspective of one, but not the other - why? Have you given up on rational thought and agreed with the propeganda that an entire population thinks as one and is subhuman, not deserving of a chance at independent life to earn a living, feed their family, go to the beach, visit relatives, cook good food, etc…?

    Do you honestly believe that the massacre of the Jewish state is the only thought in every Palestinian’s head?

    Or maybe you’re being deceived to be ok with a group of old politicians bringing about the genocide of a race of people caught in the context of bad historical decisions of others?

      I used to be on the fence thinking that both sides were terrible because I didn’t understand the conflict, I have read a lot about it since then, mostly on Wikipedia, and I no longer think it’s a both sides issue. Palestinians are responsible for their situation.

      you’re cherry picking and ignoring an awful lot of history and context of actions.

      Certainly a lot of atrocities happened on both sides since the conflict started. I was citing what caused this conflict in the first place. It was started by Palestinians, and it was escalated by Palestinians. It can be ended by Palestinians immediately.

      Implying that siding with Israel means racism… clearly it’s not about race because 20% of Israelis are Palestinian Arabs with full rights. They aren’t hostile or murdering their civilian neighbors. Why are they treated differently? Maybe it’s not about subhuman or superhuman, for Israel. it’s about safety.

      I think it would be wonderful if they had all of these things, they should surrender and negotiate for peace so that they may accomplish such things. Accept that they lost the war, accept that they’re not going to get the 1948 borders back, accept that they will lose territory, pacify themselves, and they can have all of that. It’s the constant killing of their neighbors that has led to their current miserable condition.
