The only winning move when speaking about the Israel / Palestine conflict is to not speak about it at all

At least on the Internet.

We gotta leave the US, too. And let the indigenous have their land back.

... I'm okay with this.

What do you think?

depend who you want to win. Looking away and keeping your mouth shut always works for the bad people. (bad as in violent, murderous, corrupt, greedy and so on.)

If the sides are Hamas and Israel I don't want either to win.

Maybe it's a really complicated situation with no good answers. The two state system doesn't work unless both sides want it. One state is also likely to just be the suppression of either Palestinians or Israelis.

So who should I choose?

Withdrawal of all US military aid from Israel; if they want to commit war crimes, let them do it on their own dime.

The only thing they’ve done is shot down rockets.

That's not even close to true. Even the Israeli government doesn't claim that.

TIL having an opinion for some is dangerous, but not even a matter of wanting to date a man 🤣

I am envious of my stepdad who can turn off his hearing aids without anyone looking at family dinners. Family members can be throwing the Trump this and Clinton that, and he's just 😐
