En meget god oppsummering av status (fra Reddit):
"The Palestinians have brought themselves to this point. By allowing Hamas to manifest itself as the primary Palestinian representative organisation in Gaza and by alienating their Arab brothers who have extended their hand to them, they have shown their true face and rid themselves of any allies. And now that their true face has been revealed in the unprecedented massacres followed shortly by mass celebration both in Gaza and around the world, the world will look the other way when Israel exacts retribution the likes of which are seen only once in a generation, taking with it scores of innocent life.
Those who solely blame Israeli oppression for this always conveniently forget that their cause has been forsaken by every neighbouring nation who once cared for them. Overall, it’s a tragic situation, because for those Palestinians who have tried to do the right thing over the years, it will all ultimately be for nothing as every possibility of statehood or national autonomy is now over."
Konklusjon: Palestinernes sak er død, og de har ingen andre å skylde på enn seg selv.
