In an exclusive interview with CNN, Doron Katz Asher describes the conditions in which she was kept and her sense of guilt at being free while others remain captive.
I’d dismissive to just Palestine as “the little guy” who tried a punch.
What happened to Palestine was awful, but they’ve been launching rockets into Israel and Israel was formed after Palestinians attacked them.
They were a neglected part of the Ottoman Empire, then the Brits and French promised them a united Arab state if they overthrow the ottomans, so they did, then the Brits and French reneged and strongly favoured Jewish settlement (Jews were being lynched in Europe, so it was kind of an easy solution to support them leaving at the expense of someone else). The British pulled out, the Palestinians attacked the Jews, it started a civil war and Israel won their independence and claimed the land.
There’s no clear right side or clear big guy or little guy. Is just generations of shit for hundreds of years coming to a head.
Hamas is awful and has been lobbing rockets at Israel for years and uses human shields, the Palestinian people deserve better, and it’s wrong for Israel to ignore the collateral damage they’re inflicting in this “ends justify the means war” are all true.

It is the same issue of imperialism you can find in many places.
Very exhausting
Yet none of them get nearly as much attention as Israel.
Because we expected more and better from people who had already had someone try to exterminate them.
No one expected anything from terrorists other than terror.
I guess they lived to become a villain.
