Did they have their land stolen? Were not the Jews in that land prior to the Palestinians? If you use the left's own logic on this topic then the Palestinians stole the land from the Jews long ago. Your question does not indicate an unbiased position.

No poll would ask such an insanely biased question. How about an equally biased one in response? "Do you find is sad that the Palestinian people support terrorist murderers who behead infants, commit mass rape, take women and children as hostages and engage in the deliberate wholesale slaughter of civilians?"
If your answer to that question is yes then you would be qualified as "sympathizing with the Israelis. See how stupid this game is?
Quote:Hamas is just the terrorist organization that, in their desperation at literally being genocided, the Palestinians turned to.
The use of genocide is hyperbole. Regardless, if you you choose to sign a deal with the Devil don't expect me to sympathize with you when you go to hell.
Quote:It is not only reasonable to separate them, but it's practically a given.
Nah, not so much when they refuse to do the separation themselves. You don't get to draw the distinction when their own ambassador refuses to do so himself.
