From what I've read on the subject over the years, Palestine is the eye of the storm in the Middle East, so I wonder why people (at least in North America and Europe) aren't paying any attention or apparently don't care.

Fatah IS the PLO (anyone remember them?).
Palestine, Iraq, Iran, Israel, Syria, Lebanon, and every other country in the Middle East and beyond, they're all intertwined you know. Look deeper.
