Many people around the world realize they have been shafted by just about everyone at some time or another. There's plenty of reason for some empathy without endorsing the means of the violent groups.

Arafat was a big part of the problem. It's very unfortunate that things got so much worse before he kicked. Had a more democratic approach taken root before the second Intifada things might look much better today...
