Keith,
This is what Mousethief said and this is what I agree too.
If you are trying to score points, make sure you are aiming at the right dartboard.

What hope, what shred of evidence, do the Palestinians have that Israel wants to allow the Palestinians to live within their own borders in peace? When Israel chips away at the West Bank and East Jerusalem? When Israel destroys all infrastructure in Gaza and then blockades any building supplies from coming in? When Israel allows Lebanese militia to run amok in Palestinian refugee camps, murdering at will? When the little shit that allowed that IS THEN ELECTED PRIME MINISTER?!

WHAT POSSIBLE REASON does any single Palestinian have to believe Israel will ever deal with him in good faith? Will ever allow him to have his own land, free from Israeli oversight and potential military action up to and including invasion?

WHAT POSSIBLE REASON does any young Palestinian male have for anything other than despair? And despair makes people do foolish and desperate things.

You're 25 years old. You live in Gaza or the West Bank. For all your life and all the life of your parents, your country has been occupied by a foreign power which keeps it in subjection, while tearing off chunks and annexing it to itself. It takes away your home, destroys your only way of making a living. You have never been able to travel 20 miles in your own country without being stopped and checked and inspected by agents of the foreign power. From time to time the foreign power destroys all the homes on your street because somebody lobbed a homemade rocket from your neighbourhood into the territory of the foreign power.

Gee, why would you feel outraged? What possible reason could you have to want to retaliate? Why couldn't you plainly see that if you just left the foreign power alone, it would all come right and they'd magically turn into nice people, give all the land back, smile and pat you all on the back and let you live your own lives without constant fear of terror(ism) from themselves?

And still people say that whatever Israel wants to do "to defend itself", is okay. Israel has gone way past "defending itself" since 1948 and just doesn't seem likely to curb in its avarice or cupidity any time soon.

Oh, and should any f***heads want to call me an anti-semite, go pleasure yourself with a rusted farm implement. I will NOT leave a terrorist regime uncriticized because of evils done to the Jews over the last 2000 years up to and including today. Two wrongs NEVER make a right, no matter how wrong the wrongs are.
