Way to totally leave out the context that many Palestinian families still have the keys to their homes stolen by Israelis Jews, and those same Jews kept Palestinians prisoner in Gaza for multiple generations. How would your mental health hold up under those conditions? Would you give your evil captors a kiss on the cheek if you managed to escape?

Not sure how your comment here relates. I was speaking of the way that outsiders view the Israeli's and Palestinians. Where, in that discussion, would these issues have gone?

Into the context of why Palestinians have legitimate hatred of the Jews of Israel.

Lots of people have very legitimate hatred of lots of people. This article addresses the issue 'having hatred, to what standard do we hold you?" A woman who poisons Arabs because an Arab raped her is still held to a certain standard... she is not excused.

I am afraid that your 'how would your mental health hold up' comment suffers from the very issue I address. There are, right now, millions upon millions of people that have had, for one reason or another, to flee their homes. Take the Cuban boat people... who were in danger of being arrested, imprisoned, and possibly killed for their political opinions. They got on (dangerous) boats, came to Florida, and are living pretty good lives. The fact that they may still posses the keys to their old homes (assuming that their homes even possesed locks) doesn't seem to hold them back. Shouldn't we hold everyone to that standard?

I do wonder... what is your opinion of the Egyptians? One of the borders of Gaza is Egyptian.

Why do Jews always want other countries to open up their borders, while they keep theirs tightly sealed? Why are fucking Jews never held accountable for anything?

Unless you are a Jew, I didn’t ask a Jew about Egypt... I asked you. What do you think of the Egyptians?

I think like so many people whose minds have been poisoned by Zio-Nazis Jews you are trying to deflect and change the subject from the vast crimes of Zio-Nazi Jews.

No, just asking a question. I would have thought that your opinion would be that the Jews were preventing the Egyptians from opening up the border and supplying aid to the Gazans.

Disingenuous example is disingenuous the Cuban boat people don't want their houses back, the Palestinians do want back their houses that were stolen by shitty greedball Israelis Jews.
