This article really hit me. I've been saying that the Palestinian struggle is this generations Vietnam for months, except the Palestinian struggle existed during the Vietnam War and has endured for 76 years. I made a decision to educate myself and have been studying the history of Asia and what is considered the middle east (and North Africa). In March I visited Egypt and Morocco, next year I'm going to Thailand and Vietnam. My worldview has completely changed. I no longer rely on the western, i.e. American POV. My government probably now considers me radicalized.

Super well argued. It's become increasingly difficult to engage with American Media over the years and it's embarrassing to admit at the same time how inescapable it is.
