The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

If there are Palestinians living in Jerusalem, or London, or wherever, they don't really count for this discussion. Those are a different group(s) of Palestinians. Hamas isn't operating out of the West Bank (why?), and the fighting isn't going on there. Not sure how the West Bank governs itself, but if they didn't vote-in Hamas, and Hamas doesn't have headquarters there, then they aren't included.

They do count. You have people that have spent their entire lives living in a refugee camp in Syria. They have a legitimate interest in the creation of a Palestinian state, and the autonomy and self-determination of their people. They have a stake in this.

Again, this is why this is so complicated.
