    All parts of Palestine are oppressed and see negotiations as futile because Israel does not negotiate in good faith. When compromising means giving up the right to return to the land you were kicked out of, can you really blame them for not wanting to compromise?

    On top of this, if they’re no longer oppressed, people no longer feel the need to turn to Hamas and other terrorist organizations.

    Saying you support Israel for that reason is like saying you support apartheid in south Africa or colonial algeria because if you don’t support them the people in power will be ethnically cleansed.

        1 state secular solution, Palestinians have the same rights as isralis, Hamas and IDF people are tried and punished for war crimes, kick out all settlers.

          Ok, that qualifies. Only question is how realistic that is. Requires lots of trust and giving up power while being tried for war crimes for IDF.
