You see what you call "the Palestinian sickness"; but you seem blind to the far worse, morally loathsome sickness of the Israelis who plan and execute the ongoing genocide. Read what eyewitnesses are saying. Read and listen to this:

You are capable of rational thought in every other sphere, Nat, so maybe it's still not too late for you to pull your head out of the quicksand that is sucking the compassion out of you - the quicksand of the horrific genocide you refuse to condemn. In the last analysis, all you say, over and over again, is "Poor, poor Israel; bad, bad Palestine". Israel has cut itself off from the community of modern nations as surely as Russia is. Once one of the most admired states, Eretz Yisroel is now among the most reviled. This change is Israel's doing. Your rigid, one-sided view of what's happening in the land between the river and the sea amounts to propagandizing for and justifying what Netanyahu is doing, and makes you complicit in the crimes against humanity that are being committed there, and which Netanyahu has pledged to contine committing. What is happening there, and your "Palestine is sick" response, are two sad, sad spectacles.
