Israel is only strong because of the US.
The pain of Palestinian powerlessness and despair is so palpable in this piece. Don’t @ me before you read it. If you can quote the last line, you can tell me I’m a self-hating Jew.https://nyti.ms/2WEymue?smid=nytcore-ios-share …

Palestinians need to look in the mirror. Their own leaders have betrayed them and stolen from them for decades...all while blaming the Jews. Enough. And enough of conflating their legitimate internal struggle with Israel defending itself from the same lunatics. Just stop.

What have Palestinian leaders done to move towards a peaceful resolution? Has Hamas stopped using Gaza as a terrorist base? If Israel left the WB, what would stop Hamas from using the land to continue to terrorize Israel? What would you like Israel to do?

Yes, the Palestinian leaders are weak, but that wasn’t always true. They had multiple chances over multiple decades ands they failed every time to choose their people over power. Now the leaders have little power and the people have even less.

But to blame Israel is to negate the responsibility of Palestinian leaders. Israel is not perfect. Bibi/Likud are repugnant. But they are not the cause of the Palestinian situation- they are an outgrowth of the failures by Palestinian leaders to put peace first.

The Palestinian people deserve their own country. Both Palestinians & Israelis deserve to live in peace. To blame Israel w/o acknowledgement of the terrible decision by Palestinian leaders is to continue down the same path of status quo, a path that leads Palestinians w/ nothing
