I became politically aware when I was 18 in 1975 and went to college. I quickly concluded that the Israel/Palestian problem was an intractable problem with Palestians used as pawns in a global game I didn't understand and as a non-Jew, non-Muslim I hadn't the inside knowledge to have an educated opinion, much less come up with a solution to what still seems to me like a family fight. Nothing has changed as far as I can tell, so I was right, it's an intractable problem and I am better off putting my brain to use solving problems I can actually do something about. It's annoying that privileged American kids with big salaries are telling me that I lack moral clarity or the will to fight to solve this problem. Good luck is all I can say.
