The Palestinians are the only occupied and colonised indigenous people in history to be held equally accountable for their plight and to have demands put upon them to negotiate. Negotiate what? They are powerless just as the American Indians were powerless. All power rests with the coloniser and justice must be given by the coloniser, in this case Israel.<br /><br />The Palestinian cause is not about peace, you are right, because they cannot provide it, only Israel can. The Palestinian cause is about justice which is the right of a colonised people to live in freedom and equality and not to be locked into bantustans and concentration camps, nor to be discriminated against on the basis of religion.<br /><br />Israel's only enemy in any true sense is Israel and the belief it needs to create an apartheid State and deny the Palestinians justice. There can only be one outcome when sanctions and boycotts bring the Israeli economy to its knees as was done to apartheid South Africa and that is one state with equal rights for all. A democratic, just, fair State, just as every other coloniser has had to do.Roslyn Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15700960108357035957noreply@blogger.com
