You don't have a grasp of the history. You make it sound like the Palestinians were actively working towards peace and only became radicalized 30 years ago, which is simply untrue. The Palestinians have been radicalized since Arafat became Chairman of the PLO in the 1960's. The PLO carried out their first terror attack years before the 1967 war, before Israel even came to occupy Gaza and the WB. The 1948 war was literally a war of annihilation carried out by several Arab countries (and thankfully they lost).

Even Arafat's supporters blame him for walking away from the negotiating table at Camp David. Peace was in sight and he rejected it. Abbas was offered almost everything in 2008 and again they rejected it. Do you know why? Because they have never been interested in peaceful coexistence with Israel. Never. They have rejected every partition plan and every peace deal because nothing less than all of it is acceptable to them.

Yes, there are lots of international organizations that are very biased against Israel.

That's because you could actually observe slavery in the US. Have you ever been to Israel?

The video opens with the claim that police visited her because of her social media posts that were critical of Israel.

When you finally get to the point where she lets the officers speak, they reveal that they are there on complaints of "unwanted messages to specific lawyers," to which she responds, "Nobody told me not to message them."

So clearly the issue was that she was sending problematic messages directly to people, and those messages were concerning enough to warrant a visit from the police. They would not waste their time showing up at someone's house like this unless there was sufficient cause to open an investigation.

Typical. "This person doesn't agree with my opinion so we can't have a conversation."

The ICJ has not ruled on the genocide accusation. Which, by the way, was brought by a country with a strong anti-Israel bias a month after entertaining Hamas leaders as visiting diplomats. And to pre-empt your response, no the ICJ did not say that genocide is plausible. The former head of the ICJ clarified herself that what they actually ruled was that it is plausible that Palestinian rights to be protected from genocide have been engaged, which is a fancy way of saying that the ICJ has jurisdiction to hear the case.

Did you know that children are the largest victim population in literally every major war in history? Do you know how many children died in WWII? If you don't want children to die in war, don't start wars.
