Do you think Israel is to blame for the violence there?

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by tammywammy (a host of the General Discussion forum).

I have to say, if you just look at the facts, it looks like Israel is just making land grabs illegally. I'm a Hillary supporter, but I kind of agree with Bernie on this issue.

What do you think?

The crazy aunt in the basement is an important and awesome topic of conversation that is likely to get locked as off topic in GD. That's all I was trying to point out.

I think it should be discussed here, but I realize now it's not allowed. I'll not respond further

Just likely to get locked in GD. Repost in the I/P forum, you'll likely start a lively discussion.
