I don't know how much you know about Middle Eastern history from the end of WWII to present, but a common conception is that Palestinians hate Israel because Israelis threw them out of their homes and land. Forgotten in the depths of "uncomfortable history" are the instances when the leaders of the nations in which Palestinians have resided for the last sixty years refused to allow settlement among their own population, keeping the refugees in camps. Forgive any insolence, but answer me this. If Palestinians hate the Israelis and live in peace and harmony with all other residents of the Middle East, why did THIS occur?
Very interesting. Apparently some Palestinians decided that they 'deserve', are due, land from Egypt. And are willing to take it by force. Doesn't this show that Palestinians are a (effectually) leaderless rabble? How can they be considered a coherent nation that requires their own homeland (as we are so often 'reminded' of)? Doesn't this show that Palestinians do not, in fact, feel warm and fuzzy toward their Arab neighbors? Could their possibly be a reason for this anger and resentment?
Ok, I'm done with that thought.
