Mental Health and Violence in Palestine

An article I intend to read on the incidence of PTSD in Palestine, and its relationship with terrorism.

My own position on the Israel-Palestine issue — as should be clear by the links under ‘Politics’ in the left-hand margin — is that I am on the Palestinian ‘side’ for the most part, although I have some sympathy with Zionism, and a high regard for the Jewish people (many of whom are against Zionism anyway).

Ideally, Israel should be a secular state, not a Jewish state, and encompass the Palestinians. If that cannot work, then a two-state solution is the next best thing, but for that to work Israel needs to cease its occupation. So yeah, I’m on the ‘Lefty’ side when it comes to this.
