The Palestinians are economically poor because they're morally bankrupt.

Disagree!
That's the same line of thinking as American whites used against Native Americans.
So what? You're already living here, but WE want it. WE'LL put a little land aside for you to live on....take it or leave it.
If you don't like it, we'll kill all the buffalo that you depend on for sustinace.
Go to the reservation, NOW!
If you resist, we'll kill you. (did).
So the British give over Palestine so there could be a Zionist state under UN protection in 1948. Hey! Palistinians, get out of here! It's ours now. God gave it to us (duh! I thought the British did under UN protection...play the guilt for what Hitler did to you...and then you do the exact same thing to the people you dispossess).
Go to you're Gaza strip and West Bank. We have US backing and funding.
The US evens supplies us with F-16's. Tanks too!
If you resist, we'll kill you. (did)
Can anyone blame Native Americans or Palestinians for having a dim view of events that have effected their lives?
"Those that ignore the lessons of history are condemned to repeat them."
Same story, again.
Force people off their land and expect them to negotiate?
I don't think so.
