    CW: high readings of Hitler particles.

    It's a major point as to why negotiations are barely tenable in the Israel-Palestinian conflict:

    Israel is made of a majority group whose core tenets are focused on the celebration life, and doing what you can to ensure that you not only live, but live well

    Palestine is made of a majority group whose core tenets are focused on the celebration of death and the after-life, in that you should be focused on attaining the most "honorable" death possible to ensure a better after-life

    When the views on how to approach life and death are such polar opposites to each other, it's going to be extremely difficult, if not outright impossible to find a common ground upon which to negotiate.

    Edit: Since some people are immediately taking this as a comment of meriting one religion vs another religion, see one my replies here where I explain I'm speaking on a societal level, a step above the religious level.

    Just like Vikings. Just like Crusaders.

    Dae genocide of Palestinians is just like my hecking wholesome 100 crusadarinos.

    Seal anyone who's ever had a Reddit account in a drum, cover that drum in concrete, dump that in the bottom of disused mine, fill the rest of the mine with concrete, and leave a big sign so that future generations can know that this is not a place of honour.
