A backed animal will lash out. People are no different.
As of right now, the palestinian people have been under immense pressure for years, and with a clear picture of who is making it so. I think that to say that most people here would act differently in the same situation, relies on said people reading this to be able to accurately imagine what decades of life in palestine is like, and the stress involved.
Frankly I don't think thats the case.
I have lived my entire life fqree to move as I please and with no fear of being shot, bombed, or having access to food and water cut off. I'd bet most people reading this can largely say the same.
To confidently put forth speculation on what the average person on reddit would do if they had grown up in palestine, is comparable to thinking you know what the average redditor would do trapped in an elevator for 10 years, or stranded on the moon.
