...no one is free from bloody hands in that region.

However, I am saying that it is overly simplistic to say that the Israelis are just a bunch of evil and oppressive assholes when there is scads of evidence that there are many factors in the plight of the Palestinians.

Brutality begets brutality. Bad behavior gets bad results.

The Palestinians are in a deep hole and only they can pull themselves out. Calling for the destruction of Israel, strapping bombs on children and refusing to accept treaties and peace is keeping them down.


As far as 'a brutal occupation of Palestinians' - please try to keep history in mind when looking at current events. Israel has been attacked by its neighbors for BEING JEWISH since its inception. What would you have Israel do?

On edit -

Moreover, how do you see the fact that 10s of thousands of Arabs\Palestinians live in peace and prosperity within the land of Israel? Unless you have other sources than I, I know of few hate crimes\random beating\abuses of these Israeli citizens.

Israel accepts the Arab world, but the Arab world wants Israel destroyed. I see the difference...how can you not?
