re: #26 researchok

I would not say Palestinian culture is inferior.

It is however, broken in every sense of thew word.

This is not limited to the Palestinians- virtually the entire Arab world, under the leadership of dysfunctional and oppressive regimes suffer the same brokenness.

They, more than anyone else have been the greatest victims of Arab leadership dysfunction. It will take decades to repair.

I read a book which I can not recall where the dysfunction of the region is blamed on how bad the Ottoman empire was managed. The Ottoman’s rule impovrished what had been the wealthiest and most advanced regions on earth be they populated by Arabs, Slavs, Greeks, Muslims, Christians, Turks.
