I’d hope to visit the region some day… go to Israel and talk with Israelis, then visit Palestine and talk to Palestinians. Make up my own mind about the situation. I know now that won’t happen.
I wouldn’t worry too much about the idiots here in the US. There isn’t two sides to the story anymore. The vast majority of us will stand with you, come hell or high water.
I inherited most of my opinions on the subject from my dad who lived in Palestine up to his expulsion when Israel was formed. As a resident, he spent his days surrounded by Arabs, Jews, Christians, British and everyone else. He had friends in all tribes and 90% of everyone in all tribes was just trying to make a living and would rather be friends than enemies with everyone else. But everyone also had legitimate grievances and unfortunately few were willing to see the truth in the other guy's perspective.
How do you know Egypt didn’t tell the US?
