      Both sides think they’re the good guys with something to avenge. And both sides probably do have that.

        This both sides narrative related to Palestine is not accurate because this is about a colonizer and a colonized people. I personally don’t believe that there’s any scenario where the colonizers are the good guys because colonizing relies on oppression, dispossession and dehumanization of the colonized, and consequently a feeling of superiority, otherwise the whole thing won’t work.

          *Except on Oct 7th, then it’s ‘justified’ I’m guessing you’ll say.
