Instead you opted to say what you decided you'd like Palestinian women to think, regardless of whether it's the truth or not. Why on earth would they prefer the occupation to continue when all that means is double oppression via the occupation and gender based violence? Or are you claiming that under the occupation women aren't victims of this sort of violence?

This may come as a huge shock, but violence against women is way too prevalent in all societies. The answer to that violence isn't to support occupation by a foreign military power, but to work at addressing the root problems of the violence. But hell, let's not think at all about that and let's just demand that a country like Israel soon occupies Papua New Guinea so that we can also pretend that women there would prefer occupation to violence aimed at them by men...
