Israelis And Palestinians Are Not Moral Equals

There's this illusion. People would rather live with an illusion that there's such a thing as a peace process in which Israel and and Palestine Israelis and the Palestinians are moral equals. They are not moral equals. We're talking about different cultures and different value sets. Whatever you want to tell yourself. In the Gaza Strip on October 7th, you saw Israeli bodies stripped naked on trucks, men, women, children, babies, grandmothers, Holocaust survivors. Women stripped naked on trucks driven through the streets to cheering crowds as people spit on them. Spit on the dead bodies and mutilated bodies of Israelis cheering with elation. Show me that in the streets of Tel Aviv. Show me a Palestinian dragged through the streets of Tel Aviv as everybody cheers. You can't do it. >> [snorts] >> You see the opposite. You see people in Tel Aviv protesting cheering for peace. Perhaps to a fault. Maybe they have an illusion of their own, but that's their stated goals and aims. They want peace and every attempt to have peace Israel has taken it over the years and it's only been met with more bloodshed because it's a it's an illusion that you have a partner on the other side who desires the same thing. They don't.
