This is more civil than some discussions I've seen on the topic. I think the problem with this topic, and what I've seen in every topic I've read on it in my lifetime, is that most opinions are formed based on what we see currently and show a lack of understanding of the history of the region. It has one of the most complex histories in the world and it is not something someone can just spend 30 minutes on Wikipedia looking up and think they understand. I do think it's an unfortunate conflict, but it really is more complicated than most of us realize.
