It takes decades to unlearn everything we were taught about Palestinians. For most of us, the mere act of humanizing Palestinians is a lifelong process. I'm grateful for those who are patiently guiding us through it. What a tragedy that it's even necessary in the first place.

@edokonrad also tough when we may still have family members and friends who see us as antisemites for accepting palestinian rights to the land

@edokonrad @MuslimMarine I was born in 1962. The first time I ever heard the word “Palestinian” was when I was ten years old. During the Munich Olympics. People my age are in charge now in Congress. I took time to learn the issues and I see the injustice. But for many that first impression was decisive.

@edokonrad Yes. The future of humanity depends on the struggle of the Palestinian people. Because of 70 years of land theft, humiliation and genocide.

@edokonrad No. You’ve been bamboozled by the “palestinian” propaganda machine.. “palestinians”=Arab squatters from the Arabian peninsula. No amount of tweets will change this fact. Also: there will never be a “palestine”. Ever.

@edokonrad @solid_jews You’r half right; Now if the Palestinians were going through the same efforts to unlearn all the hate they are taught about Jews, we might actually get somewhere..
