I guess we all have to ask ourselves, how would we respond if a group of people moved into our country and began taking our homes and land. And, what would we do if even the greater powers that be, justified and defended the ousting of us from our homeland?
If left to our own devices, wouldn't we react as the First Peoples on the North American Continent when settlers took their homes and land and made a government that disenfranchised them? Or, as European countries responded to Hitler's drive to conquer the world. Or, when Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor?
Wouldn't we fight for what was ours?
How is it different for the Palestinian people. Their homes and land were taken. Their children are incarcerated or killed. They must fight for every morsel of food and drop of water. Yet they are blamed for fighting for what is rightly theirs.
Where is the humanity, or justice?
