The “Palestinian” infectious illness: Obsession

Some people spend their lives building.

They create businesses. They invent products. They develop technologies. They build schools, hospitals, roads, parks, and communities. They wake up every morning asking themselves one simple question: how can I make tomorrow better than today?

These are the people who move humanity forward.

They see opportunities where others see obstacles. They understand that success is rarely handed to anyone. It must be earned through hard work, sacrifice, determination, and a willingness to take responsibility for one’s own future.

Imagine if every slogan of resistance had become a business plan.

Imagine if every child had been taught that success comes from creating something rather than destroying something.

The “Palestinians” appear to have an unprecedented obsession with Israel.

Consumed by Israel’s achievements, they seem determined to possess the same success, prosperity, and international recognition. Yet instead of following the path that transformed Israel through innovation, hard work, education, and nation building, they have allowed their national identity to become rooted in hate, historical distortions, and narratives that often bear little resemblance to reality.
