I didn’t necessarily side with them but I did think that Israel really wasn’t interested in a fair and equitable peace but I also thought that the Palestinians were culpable to some extent as well. Now it’s clear to me that it’s a lost cause and there really is zero reason for optimism whereas in the past I felt there was a glimmer of hope for peace. This also feels different because you have Palestinian and Israeli Civilans fighting each other in the streets...these are people that are neighbors and it’s been decades since we’ve seen this.
