How a Pro-Palestinian American Reporter Changed His Views on Israel and the Conflict

17. You honestly don't think

if Israel wanted to turn gaza into a parking lot that they don't have the means to do that? I disagree strongly. I see you enjoy putting the blame solely on Israel's shoulders. While I don't like bibi, have made my feelings for him very clear numerous times, I lay just as much blame on the Palestinians and their so called leaders. Their leaders have led them down a path that has led to nothing but destruction and why? Because they don't give a crap about their own people - FAR more important to continue trying to push Israel into the sea (and steal all the aid money). Israel pulled out of gaza unilaterally - got nothing but rockets and violence and a terrorist organization voted in for their troubles. I don't see the Palestinians being a partner in peace and haven't for a very long time. The Palestinians have brought their misery on themselves by never missing an opportunity to miss an opportunity. How many times have they turned down a state? Even Bill Clinton blamed Arafat for walking away from what was considered a very sweet deal they'll never see again.
