The Populist stance on the middle East is to keep out of it, but....
Many people believe that (rightly) the UK British are entitled to keep our own territory and not become a minority in a few generations (since 1948).
But the same people don't believe that the Palestinians are entitled to keep THEIR our own territory and not become a minority within what was the Palestinian Mandated Territory within in a few generations (since 1948).
To hold BOTH opinions is clearly contradictory and hypocritical. We cannot spell it out more clearly than that.
Whether one likes or dislikes either side in the conflict is immaterial.
We are looking for consistency and objectivity and hold one stance for one group of folk, but not for another is inconsistent.
There's an old saying "treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself".
We can hardly advocate for opposing colonists displacing the existing population in England and then about turn when it is applied to the Palestinians.
Footnote: The Left are as bad as they couldn't give a stuff about the indigenous English becoming a minority, yet are prepared to march for the Palestinians who have been displaced.
WE SAY - march for both or march for neither. That's consistency.
