thousand years.

I'm not Jewish, but I think it is jealousy.

For example:

As of 2017, Nobel Prizes[note 1] have been awarded to 892 individuals,[1] of whom 201 or 22.5% were Jews,[note 2] although the total Jewish population comprises less than 0.2% of the world's population.[2] This means the percentage of Jewish Nobel laureates is at least 112.5 times or 11,250% above average. Various theories have been made to explain this phenomenon, which has received considerable attention.[3][4][5]

The Jewish people have been chased out from wherever they go. They have been subjected to terrible religious discrimination.

And yet, they have discovered so much science, invented so much that has helped mankind.

Palestinians need to learn to live with their neighbors and try to learn from their neighbors too. Same for the Jewish people in the Middle East. There is room for everyone if they learn to live in peace with each other.
