There could be a huge flame war about this
but Palestine is a trendy left-wing pet project made of a very complicated, intractable problem. Tibet's maybe a more clear-cut case.

I agree the Palestinian problem is complicated,
but I fail to see how any reasonably well-informed person, who is not him/herself a shameless Zionist, could
not support Palestinian claims to independence, or at the very least the righ to not be treated like dogshit by the Israelis.

It's also hard to see why
the Israelis would possibly want to co-operate, given that every single one of the neighbouring countries has sworn to destroy them and are quite happy to use Palestine as a springboard to do so.
