@mike_kraft today, sure. but 20 years ago Palestinian kids were blowing up buses+cafes after a land for peace proposal that wasn't good enough.

there was history before 7-oct, sure. it didn't come from nowhere. there was history before Israeli apartheid too. it didn't come from nowhere.

"both sides" is in fact the only sane take on Israel/Palestine. one abuser—Israel—currently holds the knife, and is the one that needs to be restrained now. when the other side has the knife it's also no good.
