You are right, of course. I won't edit it, but I'd like everybody to know that I don't actually think that the Palestinians have a certain weakness as a people. It just bothers me to see people ruled by a dictator blame the US and Israel for their troubles. It's probably wrong to judge...
The people of Iran are about to revolt against their totalitarian rulers, as reports show. I just hope that this will encourage people in other countries to do the same.
