I think Najla Said's post is a great way to test yourself on how far you understand this.

I'd appreciate it if someone can caption the picture above.

Screenshot of Facebook post by Najla Said "Here are the rules: You may not post long comments about Israel and Palestine unless you can answer the following series of questions without cheating:

  1. Define Zionism ("Jewish nationalism" is not and acceptable answer. Please be more thorough)
  2. Who is Lord Balfour? Who are Sykes and Picot?
  3. What are UN resolutions 242 and 338?
  4. Explain the laws of citizenship in Israel for European Jews, Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews, Palestinians with Israeli citizenship and Gaza and the West Bank. Please also discuss Jerusalem and license plates in detail.
  5. Why did Oslo fail?
  6. Who are Edward Said ("your dad" not an acceptable answer) Ghassan Kanafani, Naji Al Ali, Rashid Khalidi, Ilan Pappe avi Schlaim, Gideon Levy, Amira Hass Name 4 more people who know more than any of you for extra credit
  7. What are Judea and Samaria and who refers to them as such and why?
  8. What is the Nakba and where does the term come from (please cite work and author) I'm sure I'll come up with more Feel free to add on But also note if you can't answer at least 6 of these you are uneducated on the topic and should simply be calling for a ceasefire out of love for humanity."

So my friend asked her 7 year old niece how can she be sure that her crush likes her back and her niece answered "Because we laugh together." I will be thinking about this for the rest of my life.
