I didn't see it but I think I know what it is about.

Here is a quote from a Palestinian:
Quote:
"Do you expect me to feel hatred [towards Israel]? What is that to a Palestinian? I never hated the Jews and their Israel . . . yes, I suppose I hate them now, or maybe I pity them for their stupidity. They can't win. Because we Palestinians are the Jews now and, like the Jews, we will never allow them or the Arabs or you to forget. The youth will guarantee us that, and the youth after them . . .".

This is why the only solution I can only realistically hope that will work is a bi-national state eventually turning into a single state under the name "Palestine". This state will have to be under constant foreign occupation for a long time until the racism of both sides is at least lessened to the point like what the Shiites and Sunnis were under Saddam.

Unfortunately, Israel will not accept the one-state solution and I don't know if Palestine will accept it either since the tensions are too high.

The United States has a small part of the blame because they are adding fuel to the fire. Both sides are attacking each other and as long as the US keeps giving fuel to Israel, the fire will reach a point where it can not be stopped (if it hasn't passed that point already).
