Israelis and Palestinians the long discredited American narrative of courageous pioneers confronting savage natives in a backward, undeveloped land. This narrative epitomizes the misinformation and propaganda about Israel/Palestine that has been heard in the West for decades.</figcaption></figure> 310<p>To answer Godâs calling to âseek justiceâ and to be peacemakers for the people of Israel/Palestine, we must learn some accurate history and the current realities on the ground. For many readers, Americans in particular, that will require questioning many long-held and widely supported assumptions and cutting through decades of misinformation that we have heard in our news and entertainment media.</p> 311<p><strong>However, doing that is not as difficult as many of us have been told!</strong> We so often hear that this conflict is âvery complicated,â which makes it seem impossible to develop an understanding that can lead to prophetic action for justice. It is worth noting that statement most often arises to dissuade people from engaging in powerful actions such as boycotts and divestment. <em>Rest assured, the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is not too complex for any of us to understand.</em></p> 312<p><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-458 alignright" src="https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-640x427.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" srcset="https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-640x427.jpg 640w, https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://www.palestineportal.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/FourMaps.jpg 1800w" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 500px" /></p> 313<p>
