I really don't understand that part of the world it is way beyond of what I am capable of understanding and I like to keep it that way. But, yes, I will be more sympathetic towards them.

Why ?

Sticking to the hitting analogy, palestine gets a few jabs in and then israel jumps on top of him and smashes his face in for half hour...

The innocent civilians on both sides deserve equal sympathy, even if large sections of these innocent civilians have been turned into vengeful horrible people by the other side....
