 For starters. If someone hasn’t lived the situation. Their opinion is lacking. It’s tainted by propaganda. 

I lived in Jordan my whole life, the stones of my school has bullet holes in it from the Palestinians-Jordanian civil war. 

We know the true history from the stories we listen to from our parents unfiltered. 

You have no idea how fucked up the situation is. 

But the most important part is, what everyone need to understand is that the people and the government are two separate things. Israelis and zionists are not the same thing, Palestinians and Fath and Hamas are not the same thing either.

If Zionist really want peace, they can prove it and allow Palestinians to live, and open back the country for the Palestinians who left. FYI, even Americans with Palestinian heritage are not allowed to enter Israel, it’s extremely difficult to do so. 

Palestinians live like they are in a prison. What do you expect from a cat trapped in a corner fearing for its life other than scratches.
