Which do you support

People are people. People deserve to live in comfort and safety surrounded by their loved ones with dignity and respect. I am pro Israel, but in these situations, blood can stain any hands. I think those who call themselves 'Palestinians' should become Israelis. I believe in a one state solution wherein Israel would simply annex the area known as Palestine. Religious and political passion makes this impossible, but I am biased towards Judaism and prejudiced towards Islam, so that would be my answer.

@puck61 While I agree that it would be ideal for both peoples to live in one nation equally, the laws of Israel make that impossible. Many of them rely on the distinction between an Israeli and a Palestinian. Heck, in '03 they passed a law forbidding persons residing in Judea, Samara, (West Bank) and the Gaza Strip from acquiring Israeli Citizenship, even if they otherwise legally qualify for it. Neither may they obtain licenses to reside in Israel. They can't become Israelis, even if they want to and would otherwise qualify.
