  • It’s not too surprising. But I do have to seriously question why anyone would try to have a family in the circumstances of Palestine. I struggle to justify it for myself, living in a first world democratic country, because of climate change and overpopulation concerns I have. I can’t imagine considering it in a country that’s permanently under oppression by their ethnic supremacist neighbours.

    ETA: It may not be clear. I’m empathizing with the situation that a young Palestinian couple would find themselves in. Choosing to introduce a child into their world with little hope for improvement is an agonizing choice, and yet there’s the constant challenge that if they don’t, they as a people risk dying out.
