[quote=Anonymous]agreed- a government exists with the consent of the  governed and this is more like a civil war, hence the Nakba and ongoing ethnic cleansing of those who dont consent to the Israeli government. the truth is that as a western liberal democracy we should be encouraging the end of this civil war, the entire area that was mandatory Palestine should be one country and everyone in it should have equal rights to vote, sell/purchase property, education, etc etc regardless of their ethnicity, religion, race or sexual identity.  If that means that jewish/muslim fundamentalists won't get their own state well ... why are we propping religious fundies still? that was our/USA's MO in the  20th century but we should've learned our lesson by now.

Religious crazies anywhere of any stripe shouldn't be getting US tax payer funding.  Even if we stick to a 2 state solution- why should we be spending tax money setting up a religious fundamentalist (Hamas) influenced state when the majority of Palestinians were never that religious?  We keep supporting the Saudi/wahabi axis b.c we've decided the Shiite Iranis are the worst but in many ways they arent. Im from a sunni background and its alarming how less tolerant the Muslim world has grown bc the Americans kept sending money to the right wing/military wings b.c they were so against the socialist/athiest/secularist (read commie) forces.[/quote]
