I'm really struggling with what is happening in Israel and Gaza right now. I'm in a somewhat unique position to be the son of both a Jew and an Arab. And while my dad was from Egypt, and Christian to boot, he was still very much an Arab.
I have never been comfortable with the Palestinian displacement that occurred to create Israel. I am obviously sympathetic to the plight of the Jews, I am one, my family lived through the Holocaust as Jews. And yet. It feels like we should've done better.
