All of the middle east is using the Palestinians to make sure the most desperate of the underdogs in the middle east is of an islamic population. Israel is definitely outnumbered and only trying to fight off the constant aggression around them.
If you look at the people who kill their own, there are only so many nations and groups of people who follow this pattern...
Look at Africa, look at Iraq, even certain urban areas of the U.S. where gangs are shooting eachother and getting nowhere...
It is easier to fan the flames of violence and hate, to tear things down and blame someone for all of their suffering, than to pick up a damn shovel and build a house or business, or even more challenging -- a book -- and try to make something from nothing. To make something positive happen is a lot harder than keeping a negative thing going.
Its not Israel keeping the Palestinians from getting their sh*t together, its themselves.
No outside authority is standing over Africa or Gaza, or even Iraq and making these people shoot eachother. More people are getting killed in Iraq by Iraqis than American soldiers.
I'm not saying anyone is right in this mess, but that its about time people took responsibility for their own lives and not blame everyone around them. Or manipulate the media to build public opinion for these self-made victims.
Maybe if the rich Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia helped build an economy for their brothers in need, instead of shipping them more guns and bombs, they'd be on their way to recovery.
