Why would any sane person take their children in only to have them blow up Americans or Brits when they are old enough to do so? I'm sure there would be an outcry if we wished to convert these kids to Christianity. I'm just as sure they'd be raised with their religion of peace inside the mosques of America and England. It's the natural thing for snowflakes to see to it. Jihadis in training. Great.
It is bits like this Charlie that give the lie to your pretense of reasoned decency on here. You dismiss whole people groupings within early 20th century Palestine, the entire experience of the secular Arabs of the region as well as the Sufis and the other Islams. All Palestinians were not clones of the Mufti Of Jerusalem anymore than all Jewish settlers were supportive of Deir Yassin or the bombing of the King David Hotel. You haven't even come clean with the genocidal colonial enterprise your own states are built upon, maybe stay out of the pain of peoples you don't seem to have any comprehension of. Or at least read some actual poets and thinkers on the situation. Arendt's The Jew as Pariah has some essays by an early Zionist that have proved some clear sighted that her predictions on 1948 could have been written today. Really. That was a serious vile bit about the refugee children. You should be ashamed to write those words.
