    Watch the documentary, The Mayor, and then tell me your opinions on Israel / Palestine. Palestinians are brutalized. Israel is a shit state, regarding policy. I don’t condone violence. Israel brings violence upon itself via violence against Palestinians.

      Palestine brings violence against itself via violence against Israelis. Blowing up public busses, nightclubs, open air markets, in a way specifically designed to cause mass casualty, does wonders to make the average Israeli not give a fuck about the Palestinian cause or the righteousness or lack thereof of the Israeli government. Showing me lopsided casualty reports does not change this reality.

        I don’t really blame them. Were I in their position, I’d probably be doing exactly what they’re doing. They’re fighting for their existence against a whole world that wants them dead. That’s gotta make you feel so hopeless, you stop caring about the humanity of your oppressors. Might as well hurt them as much as possible before they kill you off.

        Better than sitting around for Israel to murder you for your land. I wish the Palestinians luck in their fight, and I hope they bring such deep and unwavering sadness to Israel that the very rocks of that defiled land weep blood at their folly.
