You poor soul, you still don't get it.
The Palestinian movement today is not about building a liberal-minded nation-state based on the European model. They wouldn't care about being ruled by a Totalitarian Islamic country like Jordan, and won't say a word about a "blockade" being imposed on the Gaza strip from its border with Egypt.
It's about Dar al Islam vs Dar al Harb. About the giant nation of Ummah. It's about getting another judenfrei piece of land from which they can keep fighting against infidels, with money from oil-rich fanatic bosses. It's a viking-like mindset. They used to be called "Arabs" just like the Jordanians, Syrians and Egyptians, until they realized that calling themselves Palestinians will portray them as "David against Goliath".
And they're coming for Europe too. Don't believe me? Talk with non-muslim minorities in your country that came from Muslim countries. Even moderate Muslims from Iran or Kurdistan will convince you.
I'm well aware of all of that. Part of being Christian is dealing with the hardship of being regularly overrun by more militant groups, as we aren't allowed to argue self-defense until it gets really bad. I'm in Europe. Lots of Palestinians are already here, and they began causing trouble as soon as they arrived. No surprise there, as they know no peace and live for adrenaline and circus.
But not everything is justifiable, even when you are under attack. There is a line and Israel has crossed it.
They can keep right on and tell everyone to get lost, but then they have to deal with being a pariah state. Even Germany is turning away. We are still your friends, and wish you no ill, but we can choose to focus on better friends.
