“Our bus leaving the Palestinian territories was stoned by the very Palestinian children for whom our taxes, in part, funded the “education”. One of the windows was smashed. It was hardly an “incident” at all – quite commonplace I understand.”
Substitute the word Palestinian for Harvard, same thing.
And now the government schools in the west are doing the same thing and worse.
Good people of every religion should mourn the death and injury of all the children and innocents from either side. The cycle of hatred goes on and on: Rinse (the blood off the pavement) and repeat. Qui Bono? The rich men north of Richmond and their counterparts in most every country. Will we ever learn? Or, the haters gonna hate and the fighters gonna fight. and the rest need to be out of the way. (increasingly hard to do given the technology of war at hand now.)
A two state solution will never solve the problem. Hamas wants death to all Israeli's and until HAMAS is removed, there won't be peace for Israel or Palestine.
You are correct about our own stupidity. Somehow we think that the nicer and more generous we are to terrorists, we'll turn them around. It's never going to happen.
Muhammad called the Jews of his day “people of the Book”. Unfortunately they disrespected him and made fun of his ignorance (he was illiterate). The states of Palestine and Israel did not exist yet, but the seed of enmity was sown.
As I read the latest post by Konstantin kisin, the UK is beginning to realize why neighboring Arab countries won’t accept Palestinians fleeing the Israeli scorched earth campaign. Unfettered immigration has created “no go” zones there that are only policed by Sharia law. Look to France!
Thanks for the up close observation. The insanity of funding our own destruction. The people that call themselves Palestinians have been victims of their leaders for almost 100 years now. Now they are cannon fodder again.
Extremely disappointed that the author confuses causes with effects. I’m a European of Ashkenazi descent and I’m disappointed about the European support for the Zionist settler colonialism project.
Hamas was created and funded by Israel. The goal: to undermine the support for the secular Fatah. And now the Palestinians are blamed for the rise of Hamas? Hello?
We’ve indeed seen this movie with the CIA-created Mujahideen. We indeed know how it ends. Well, some of us do, anyway.
Finally, Zionism is not Judaism and is not Jews. There are many anti-Zionist Jewish organisations.
In 2007 we got lost and ended up in the West Bank. We asked for directions and were curtly directed to a dead end street. A gaggle of young boys with what looked like rocks in their hands surrounded our car and we suddenly realized we were not safe. Later we found out that the license plate on our car identified us as the enemy.

I feel as you do and write at commonfolk365.substack.com. Come take a look!
Damned straight.
That's the best opener I have read in a long time...

Sadly, You are a voice crying in the wilderness.
I’ll say it....I AM SICK TO DEATH OF THESE MUZZIES!
Sadly, The product of teaching hate.
