"‘The Arab-Israel conflict is an unusual conflict in many ways. On the one hand it is a series of extremely short wars and skirmish conducted between two relatively small groups over a specific, very small, space curve in natural resources and water-poor - which adds to the intensity of the conflict. On the other hand, it has been broadened into a universal ideological conflict between Jews and Arabs, Judaism and Islam, West and East."
- Ian J. Bickerton
"Israelis enthusiastically chose to become a colonialist society, ignored international treaties, expropriated lands, transferred settlers from Israel to the occupied territories, engaged in theft and found justifications for all these actions. The settlers were praised by every Israeli government as patriots, good citizens, good Zionists."
- ‘The Arab-Israel conflict, a history’ Ian J. Bickerton
[Images: a set of photos—graffiti reading “KILL ALL ARABS”, “ARABS TO THE GAS CHAMBERS” and “EXTERMINATE THE MUSLIMS”]
Here is a series of photos received from the Jewish Peoples’ Liberation Organization about very disturbing Jewish settler graffiti in Hebron targeting Palestinians and those who support them. Most disturbing. If these statements were targeting Jews there would be headlines. But since these are done by Jews targeting Palestinians silence. The pictures have originally come from the Christian Peacemaker Team in Hebron.
Be reminded this is graffiti which Israel does not remove.

Done a presentation today on Israel/Palestine conflict.
No one in my class could really understand the whole conflict and the situation over time. So my awesome brother actually got into Israel through a 10 hour wait so I presented his photos and explained the situation and the importance of Jerusalem on all Abrahamic religions. My teachers awesome she’s like I’ve got the right to be pro-Palestine :DDD
