    "Jews weren't allowed to marry Germans, stores were destroyed, then the final solution" why are you ok with replicating this systematic oppression? Israelis cannot marry Palestinians in the oPT and live in Israel. Shuhada St exemplifies the destruction of Pali businesses

    Palestinians possess minuscule control over their own lives. Economic blockade prevents shipments of food & medicine, illegal settlements, and checkpoints are a few examples.
