Correct, the situation is much more nuanced than a simple sign could say. Both sides have rights and very wrongs about them. The only thing that should really be on signs should be "both sides should stop the violence and talk it through", but we all know about how well that would go. Still, star trek taught me that should be the goal.
Great point! Have you seen the documentary Star Wars btw? They have some interesting counterpoints on the use of violence against one's oppressors in the interest of obtaining freedom from said oppressors.
Hard to have a sit-down talk when one side (Palestine) outright says their goal is to kill all Jews and Christians.
