    I guess this is what she wrote.

    None of it makes any fucking sense to me. I clearly don't understand the middle east

    JKR's bullshit opinions are honestly not worth any time or effort, but I'm glad this document exists as a monument to liberal insanity

      She's basically just Enlightened Centrist-ing it up. "The Palestinians are being treated badly, but don't boycott Israel, that's taking things too far.". The whole metaphor to her books is a bit tortured and, dare I say, revisionist. It's been a while since I read them but the whole inner conflict and subsequent character growth she's referring to with Harry didn't fucking happen.
