What if instead of “hypocrites pretending to be good, and the wicked not even pretending,” everyone thought they were good and largely trying to do the right thing from potentially radically different circumstances and attitudes?
It's clearly untrue that "everyone thought they were good". Even David Ben-Gurion knew what's up: "Why should the Arabs make peace? If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: We have taken their country." [0]
