Israel vs Palestine

I have many friends who are pro-Israel, many friends who are pro-Palestine, and many friends who aren’t quite sure what’s going on over there. I’d like to have a polite, intelligent discussion of the situation if at all possible. To do that, there has to be a starting point that both sides can agree to, right? Is this video ok? If not, why? And if not, do you have one that more accurately explains the conflict?

I try not to discuss politics on this site, but I think this situation is easily a human rights issues.
