If they're being attacked, then they're not the ones choosing violence and hatred. They are reacting to the violence and hatred being done to them.

As well, my point was aimed at both sides since both the Israelis and Palestinians are acting out of hatred for each other and this insanity will never end as long as both parties continue to behave this way.

Exactly what everyone is pointing out and why you're being downvoted. Your statement was meaningless since both sides would need to choose to stop and that still wouldn't resolve the conflict.

No shit Sherlock

They are reacting to the violence and hatred being done to them.

Reacting how? With violence? And hatred? So your rebuttal is:

they're not "choosing" violence and hatred... they're "reacting" with violence and hatred

That's just brilliant!

Exactly what everyone is pointing out...

No I'm pretty certain the vast majority of people are choosing one side over the other and are NOT pointing out that both sides share some responsibility
