That's essentially what your position comes to if you support the Palistinians. There is no 2 state peace plan. There is no UN authority in Israel's borders that is helping peace take place. There are two governing bodies in civil war. One keeps it's people in poverty, the other is Israel. One actively makes terrorists, the other again is Israel.
Years ago I felt for the Palistinians, because I saw them as the victims. Then I saw the fights. The bimbings, and so much more. The leaders of Palistine do not want peace and fair coexistence. They want Israel gone. Nor do the leaders of Palistine seem to care about their people. Poverty is fine. It fuels their anger and helps enlist fanatics.
Support the actual side that will do good.
On the other hand though. Does anyone question why Jerusalem is being faught for? It is a holy city in Jewish history, but is not favorably mentioned in the Quaran at all. The only logical reason to keep Jerusalem from being an Israeli city instead of a Palistinian city or a shared city is out of spite and hatred towards Israel.
The capital of Israel should not be the issue that Palistine goes to war over. If it does for this reason it will for any other excuse too. Seriously why support them? There is no peace.
