In my universe it does.
I spent many formative years with jews (seeing the mad dreadlocked ones regularly visiting my schools), best mate became a commando war hero for the IDF through the 80s and beyond, hungout OS for year with a Palestinian mate, when they were basically PLO, met heaps of Israelis through work, lived days at a time them (either mad out of it nuts
or horrid dark scary fucks
, no middle ground.
I’m not anti-semetic, but fuck a significant portion of Israelis I detest. It’s one fucked up area, and us Western types are just as much to blame, but fuck historically what are they fighting over? Imaginary friend status? land? It will only stop by either complete elimination or massive spatial separation, so I think Israel has chosen the 1st option now.
Back to my universe.
