@jessez8503 I was in the exact same position. I grew up in East Africa. As a teen I was very sympathetic to the Israeli cause. It was only after I moved to the West & was exposed to the realities faced by the Palestinians that my thinking evolved.

@daves465 the Palestinians who have lived in that area for generations have a right to the territory that was designated as their homeland. The reason for this mess is they were never given any security guarantees by the colonial powers. And when they resisted the foreign settlers, they were in no position to defend their land. The colonial powers only guaranteed Israel security & allowed the state of Israel to bully their way into expanding their occupation.

@daves465 that was a bad faith deal. If there are 2 parties, you can't make a deal with 1 & leave the other twisting in the wind.

@daves465 would you roll over if some foreign power came into your area & started divvying it up for some people from another part of the world?
