I like to think of them as freedom fighters, and Sharon's Israel a fascist regime.
And sure, you bash the old Palestinian authority, but Yasser Arafat earned the Nobel Peace Prize...and with justification.
I am not anti-semetic. I am merely anti-Israel, like many in the world.

Where was this Palestinian land? There never was an established sovereign Palestinian state. THen the Palestinians further fucked up by allowing Arab armies in to crush the Israeli state, serves them right that the Arab's got the snot kicked out of them and The Palestinians are left without out a country.
The Israeli's have as much a right to be there as the Palestinians, It's their home too. Furthermore, I think it's false people are all up in arms about the occupation. Nobody really seemed to care when the Palestinians were displaced and mistreated in Gaza and the West Bank under Egypt and Jordan, there was no uproar. Then you get the Arabs picking a fight, again, getting stomped, again. Israel tried to negotiate the territories, but the Arab's never wanted peace, they wanted the total destruction of Israel.
Also Arafat may have deserved the Noble prize for his work for what he was awarded. That doesn't negate the fact that he was a murderous terrorist who perpetuated the suffering of his own people. He is no hero to the Palestinians.
Freedom fighters don't shoot up cars with women and children, or blow up school buses, or commuter buses with people trying to go to work. Cowards do that.
