There is no 'Palestinian-Israeli Conflict'

Interesting read, especially since it is from a foreigner's point of view. Though it's quite long, it's worth the read.

"In order for colonialism and occupation to be successful, previous inhabitants of a region must be dehumanized, labeled savages, and finally, their very existence denied. Once this paradigm has been established, any and all acts of horror can be inflicted upon them without recourse. Thus, the stories of the oppressed become irrelevant. There is no Palestinian-Israeli conflict; there is only oppression."
