I've covered this topic in Modern World History class, except I don't remember anything I learned from it because that class is boring that I always zone out. We watch boring and pointless videos and movies 80% of the time and I don't really learn anything in the first place except how to effectively sleep without the teacher noticing.

Enough

2. Was this issue mentioned sometime in your classroom or in your family discussions?

Past school age. Have discussed with friends a several times.

· Israeli is an oppressor and the Palestinians are denied all their rights.
· Israel has the right to have the entire land and Palestine never existed!
· I wouldn’t really care. I would just nod my head to whatever is said.

I would be likely to say that your options are way too extreme and polarized. The situation is not Black and White.

4. Who do you support?
· Israel
· Palestine
· None

Define "support". And what do you mean by Israel & Palestine? The people or their governments?

5. Do you think this is a ruthless crime?
· Definitely
· Maybe
· Not really

You mean the Palistinians lobbing rockets into Israel? You mean the Palistinians getting pregnant women to blow themselves up outside of pizza parlors? You mean the Palistinians vowing to push the Israelis into the sea?

6. Do you believe that Israel has the right to occupy the land?
· Yes.
· Maybe.
· Definitely no

What land? To some you mean Gaza and the West Bank. To the Palistinians, "the land" means all of Israel.

7. How old are you?

Thanks a lot for responding! I actually think that it is a comprehensive response because now I know how it is, so I added more options to it

Thank you for clearing some things so I can add more options. By support I mean the government, but clearly Palestine has no self-government, so for Palestine it's the people and for Israel it's the government.
And the land I mean Gaza and West Bank. As for the crime, I don't think that the Palestinians are the terrorists here. You probably mean the rockets that are launched to kill the Palestinians. The idea you have is utterly wrong. Because the Israelis are causing the terror, by abusing the women, men, elderly and children in their homes. Or even abuse or shoot the kids on their way to school. The Israelis have the massive weapons, obviously. They have the rockets, bombs, and all kinds of other weapons. I advise you to watch more news, but thank you for responding.

You don't consider the PNA any form of self government? What about Hamas and Fatah?

No. The rockets Hamas launches into Israel from Gaza. And there are no suicide bombers? Those are figments of the pro-Israel media?

. I advise you to watch more news, but thank you for responding.

I advise you to watch more balanced news. Your bias is very blatant. Why even ask the questions if you dismiss the answers you do not like?

Excuse me? Who said that I dismissed you answers? I am recording every single answer of yours. And I was not bias at all, but you clearly were because you looked at it from one side.
