@hahussain Alon Mizrahi has a similar story. Strange they don't blame the people who expelled them from their paradise but instead the people who welcomed them.

@solibearity860 @BriannaWu @BreeNewsome I disagree Israel is an apartheid state. But regardless, what makes you think that the Palestinians want to live in a non-sectarian democracy? Palestine is a monocultural ethnostate run as a petty tyranny. Please point out all the non-sectarian democratic traditions in Pal.

@jaffoneh Every checkpoint is a response to terrorism. Checkpoints also cause the most palpable friction. A security dilemma. If you can get fellow Palestinians to give up the idea that random acts of individual terror are somehow liberating, there would be no need for checkpoints.

At this stage of Palestinian tragedy shouldn't there be a conference on what to do differently? How to save their children from the endless violence? Any small bit of self reflection? No. Glorification of every failed violent phase, each one making life worse for Palestinians.
Shoufani started by remembering how the Palestinian people "have resisted the Zionist enemy for over a hundred years." She recalls the "historic revolutions" that Palestinians have waged: the Great Arab Revolution of 1936, "the Popular Revolution launched in the camps of Lebanon
