What I need from the general populace is a vast understanding of the fact that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is nowhere near as cut and dry as we are pretending it is.

It goes back millennia and requires so unbelievably much historical and theological understanding that jumping in feet first on the latest active conflict and demanding this, that, or the other thing end in your favor will be the fastest way to be laughed out the door regardless of which side of the aisle you land on.

The largest folly I come across is people forgetting that by and large— both Judaism and Islam are ethno-religions.

You see it so often in public forum rules… “remember the person.”

Why are so many forgetting the people now??

No matter what, Palestine/israel/ or fuck let’s call a spade a spade… CANAAN… is a society built around religion— in that sense, whether you agree with either religion or not… you need to take care in what comes out your mouth— internet or otherwise.

Real people who are actually affected by these things can see you.

Think before you speak.
