The whole thing was never done right and the grievances of the displaced Muslims never dealt with.

That's true. But it has happened over and over and over and over again in the history of the world. There are numerous displaced people today (many in the US) whose grievances were never dealt with. But to use that to justify terrorism is a stretch I'm not willing to make. Apparently you are, but I'm not.


My point is that there is terrorism on both sides and neither is innocent. Once again they threaten each other as seen in the article linked below.

My issue is that we should not be so strongly supportive of the Israelis. It gives them undue advantage in this mess and alienates other ME countries from us.

I thought you were the one who said in past posts that the problem couldn't be solved unless people forgot the past and looked forward only. Sounds as though your tune has changed.

Never......if I said something to the contrary, it was a mistake.
