"Many of the Europeans who want Israel to go away don't even know why they do. Nearly a third of those interviewed concede they have no idea what the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is all about. It's enough to know that Israelis are Jews"

- Suzanne Fields

About this Quote

This quote by Suzanne Fields suggests that lots of Europeans who want Israel to disappear do not understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This lack of understanding is demonstrated by the reality that almost a third of those talked to admit they have no idea what the conflict is about. This recommends that the desire to see Israel disappear is not based upon a reasonable understanding of the conflict, but rather on a prejudice against Jews. This bias is further reinforced by the reality that many Europeans appear to believe that the simple reality that Israelis are Jews is enough to justify their desire to see Israel disappear. This quote highlights the need for greater education and understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian dispute in order to fight bias and promote peace.
