These are things that need to be said. The popular attitude towards the Palestinian occupation is one of the most disgusting things about the world we live in.
Agreed. I've sent this to everyone in the little Zionist clique on my floor. Not that it'll make a difference, but it'll be satisfying to yell at them when they come around calling me an anti-semite.
On the other hand, it's important to remember that pretty much every Palestinian attack on Israel is, in terms of percentage of the population killed, the equivalent of a September 11th attack. Both the Israelis and the Palestinians are deeply traumatized peoples. Not to mention the role of the sorrounding Arab governments, which have been using Palestinians to create a buffer zone against the Israelis for decades. Nobody's hands are clean. There are no good guys or bad guys-just dead children.
