I remember I told Maoz this story yesterday where we had a tour and this tour had this group who came and they ready to argue about 1948.
And they had an Israeli and a Palestinian tour guide with them.
And they kept asking our Palestinian tour guide.

And so at some point, I just looked at them and said, you are right.
Every problem in history is caused by Palestinians.

We were wrong all along.
