[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Palestinian perspective is very, very politically incorrect for western ears. They aren't motivated by western liberal notions of liberty, equality ect.[/quote]

Neither is Israel. Liberty isn’t being ruled by the same prime minister on and off since 1996[/quote]

It's a democracy, with free and open elections.  The people voted in the leader they wanted.  So did the Palestinians, one time before any pretense of democracy disappeared.  [/quote]

I seriously cannot fathom why people wonder why there’s a rise in antisemitism when you have people like this poster - and so many others I’ve seen on here- saying things like this… just totally heartless and selfish. And of course all on the US’s dime will Americans are struggling. [/quote]

It's "heartless" and "selfish" to point out that one country is a democracy and that a different group of people live under a self-imposed brutal authoritarian form of criminal government dedicated to terrorism?  You employ a peculiar dictionary.

Facts are facts.  Israelis vote periodically for politicians to implement policies the people want.  So too did the Palestinians once, except the Palestinians discovered, apparently to their surprise, that the government they voted in now declines to be voted out, no matter how useless it has proven in improving the condition of the people who elected it.
