He’s right (at least in the context of the I/P conflict). And it’s not anti-Israel to say so.
We can blame some of their suffering on Israel. We can blame some of it on Palestinians. We can blame a large portion of it, I’d argue, on armed Palestinian terror groups who have taken over the social and political establishment and cannot be controlled or influenced by the average man or women. It doesn’t matter. Anything that prolongs this conflict hurts Palestinians more than anyone else. That’s why I don’t think my line-in-the-sand opposition to Palestinian terrorism and the concurrent belief that the Palestinian leadership must agree to live side-by-side with an Israeli state (and my belief that these issues constitute the primary obstacles to resolving this conflict) is “anti-Palestinian.” It’s pro-peace. And therefore, ipso facto, it’s pro-Palestinian.
