I think being pro-israel is just not done these days, and that's why I'm neutral in this whole thing.. But there are two sides to each issue, and I can clearly see where Amir comes from. The brainwashing goes two ways - the Palestinians aren't sweet angels either, even though they want to make us believe that.
I have noticed in the latest footage I've seen that there is always "an uncle" of a victim of violence when there is a western camera crew. He is always armed with at least one phone - and is very quick to respons to questions with the same answers. It's all about press coverage I guess.
I'm not saying that what is going on is right, and was quite dissapointed that Israel announced to keep on building new settlements, after Palestina was given it's new status. It's a bit like a little child who doesn't get it's ways, and therefore just does what it wants, even though it knows it's in the wrong.
Without dialog this thread, and in real life, the situation will go nowhere. I know they have been talking for ages. And am afraid that they will go on for ages. It seems however that everybody is forgetting what's going on in Syria, or more worrying, how the new Egyptian president is already pulling all power to himself as well. This thing is far from over, and I'm afraid that this image below will be an utopia.....
