shoulder the brunt of the blame

If you don't mind me jumping onboard with a supplementary Ti......

 

The Iranian Mullahs who directly sponsor and support the elements you mention above really shoulder the blame -  they have encouraged, facilitated, sustained and financed the delivery of terrorism and remain fundamentally opposed to any form of Palestinian "solution" (short of the end of Israel) regardless of the continued hardships endured by the people of Palestine.  In fact, the more suffering they endure, the more volatile the situation becomes which is exactly what Iran wants.  Iran is directly responsible for the hardship of the Palestinians.

S'right. But it's easier just to take the ages old view that it's the fault of the Jews.

"Nothing new under the sun" as a wise man once said.

Mate, I've been over there and ran a marathon through Bethlehem raising money for 'Medical Aid for Palestinians'.

 

The sanctions put in place by the Israelies (In violation of UN Law) are nothing short of subhuman.

Got to be honest I am rather ignorant to the whole Israel/Palestine conflict in the sense of I know nothing about the conflict or the history there but I have to say that is a scary graphic!

Good call.

Black sheep IPA for the next 10 mins or so.

 

No matter what our differences are I hope we can all agree how lucky we are to live in a country where we have the means and rights to argue and debate this sh1t.

Just been to the pub for three pints of Guinness. Back home now, ready for mass debating.

Absolutely.
And booze while we're doing it!
No boozing for me tonight though.
I'm on Fosters.
