All right, let’s just try to do the math according to the principles I have just mentioned. The principle of colonization against the blow back from those colonized that has happened in the last forty years.

Sympathy is quite simple. You get sympathy, if you are the underdog. If someone is brutalizing you and killing you.

This has been the principle of a lot of the colonial actions. In the Americas brutal wars were fought over the landmass.

In Congo pure hell was on it for the people living there.

But, and this is very important, it is a long time ago, white people have been doing amends for a long time, and now the atrocities that is done to white people, are actually making them the underdog in some areas.

So the underdog role is not just automatically given to the people of Gaza.

Add to this, there has been peace in the West Bank for a long time. Jews and Arabs seem to get along just fine.

So, if the war continues, and Hamas is not anymore. There will be little support for a massive condemnation of Israel, as in the South African case.

That is the reality.

Now Palestinians can continue fighting without much international support, or make peace.

If peace is made, the following process will be like this, if I understand the commitment of the EU well.

There will be bridges built and reconciliation made.

I know, that there is a lot of wounds and scarring. People have lost so much.

But the longer the fighting continues, the more lives are lost.

So, what about a deal, that is realistic and gives peace a chance?

G-d bless the will to find true peace among peoples who are essentially brothers.
