    Palestinian Advice: Avoid Violence at all costs! Assume anyone proposing or inciting violence is state actor/provocateur working against your interests. Study peaceful resistance. Awareness of your plight is growing, don't let those proposing violence, undermine your cause

        IOW burn the Koran and become #ChristLike Nice thought, but Islam's endgame is genocide, either yours or theirs. There is no #InBetween. PS Their "cause" is rabid #JewHatred, institutional #AntiSemitism.

        Incorrect. You need to understand the difference between Muslims and the Wahhabi Salafi Jihadists - the 9/11 guys, Al Qaeda, ISIS - now the US allies

        Sooner or later they all devolve towards the violence and insanity espoused by the #PerfectProphet. Islam has been shape-shifting for 1,400 years with the same animus throughout.

        Urge same for anyone else in US. Initiation of violence is never the answer. Anytime you encounter someone proposing violence, you should immediately assume they are a government agent, informant or provocateur. Just look at many of the busted plots in US

        I used to tell Occupiers the same thing and called out some agitators, asking them if the police are paying them enough.

        Exactly. Trumps #Jerusalem announcement was a publicity stunt. There was no change in US policy (#JerusalemEmbassyAct 1995). He was trying to incite violence, and distract from his FBI probe and #GOPTaxScamBill. #Palestine needs to just wait him out. It’s almost #MuellerTime!

        What to do if you peacefully protest, and snipers maim & kill you on every turn? Sure they do it to incite violence but how long can you take it?

        As a muslim I think this is not the reality. I love jews(contrary to what I am taught in some Friday sermons), and I am no fan of lobbies of nuclear Israeli state. Yet there is a real problem that Palestinians are not taught there are political ways to resist besides Jihad.

        "contrary to what I am taught in some Friday sermons" Seriously, this is the very heart of the challenge. Palastinians and their supporters are widely taught it is their religious duty to hate and fight.

        I would include anyone being taught hate in a religious sermon. Is this also a message in the Palastinian Christian Church?

        It is the Wahhabi Salafi Jihadists that are taught to hate. These are the 9/11 guys, ISIS, Al Qaeda..... It is not all muslims. But, the Wahhabis are the ones building new mosques around the globe with Saudi money

        Agreed Wahhabism is a BIG part of the hate and violence, but Gaza is a mess, and is backed fully by Shi'a Iran, no?
