Why doesn't anyone look at history?

Question

The only reason they are fighting in Palastine is because, the ISRAELIS DO NOT BELONG THERE. What if some one came to your house and kicked some of your family members out and moved in some complete strangers. How would you feel.I am a resonable person but, I do not agree with them being there. Remember, it was not one person of hue killing the zionist in Germany in the 40's it was an EUROPEAN by the name of HITLER. So how all of a sudden do these people are awarded land in Palastine? God Bless.

Answer 1

Well, cross your fingers, but I think now that Israel has been so goddamn arrogant as to attack Lebanon for absolutely no reason that America will be cutting all ties one of these days.

Without their supply of American funding and military hardware, the Israeli zionazi pigs will eventually get their asses steamrolled.

Answer 2

I agree, It was a mistake to give the Jews part of palestine after WW2, there will never be peace there.

"basically the current stage of what's going on -- there's a lot more -- begins with the Hamas election, back the end of January. Israel and the United States at once announced that they were going to punish the people of Palestine for voting the wrong way in a free election. And the punishment has been severe.

At the same time, it's partly in Gaza, and sort of hidden in a way, but even more extreme in the West Bank, where Olmert announced his annexation program, what’s euphemistically called “convergence” and described here often as a “withdrawal,” but in fact it’s a formalization of the program of annexing the valuable lands, most of the resources, including water, of the West Bank and cantonizing the rest and imprisoning it, since he also announced that Israel would take over the Jordan Valley. Well, that proceeds without extreme violence or nothing much said about it.

Gaza, itself, the latest phase, began on June 24. It was when Israel abducted two Gaza civilians, a doctor and his brother. We don't know their names. You don’t know the names of victims. They were taken to Israel, presumably, and nobody knows their fate. The next day, something happened, which we do know about, a lot. Militants in Gaza, probably Islamic Jihad, abducted an Israeli soldier across the border. That’s Corporal Gilad Shalit. And that's well known; first abduction is not. Then followed the escalation of Israeli attacks on Gaza, which I don’t have to repeat. It’s reported on adequately.

The next stage was Hezbollah's abduction of two Israeli soldiers, they say on the border. Their official reason for this is that they are aiming for prisoner release. There are a few, nobody knows how many. Officially, there are three Lebanese prisoners in Israel. There's allegedly a couple hundred people missing. Who knows where they are?

But the real reason, I think it's generally agreed by analysts, is that -- I’ll read from the Financial Times, which happens to be right in front of me. “The timing and scale of its attack suggest it was partly intended to reduce the pressure on Palestinians by forcing Israel to fight on two fronts simultaneously.” David Hearst, who knows this area well, describes it, I think this morning, as a display of solidarity with suffering people, the clinching impulse.

It's a very -- mind you -- very irresponsible act. It subjects Lebanese to possible -- certainly to plenty of terror and possible extreme disaster. Whether it can achieve any result, either in the secondary question of freeing prisoners or the primary question of some form of solidarity with the people of Gaza, I hope so, but I wouldn't rank the probabilities very high."

Answer 3

Say the UN decided that Native Americans had their "ancestral homeland" stolen from them by the US, and that a large chunk of the central plains states will be used to create a separate country for them. Now, say you were a rancher. Your family has ranched a 1000 acres for generations. Now you are given notice to vacate, and abandon your "birthright". Generations of hard work and sacrifice , all gone.

Now, no one can deny that the Native American's claim to the land is valid. Everyone knows the travesty and the pure devastation dealt them by the US government. No one can deny that they were on that land first, and the treaties signed by them with the US government were all broken by the US government.

What would you do? Give up your land because it is the right thing to do in the eyes of the world, or fight to save your family's home.

(yeah, this is over simplifying a bit, but the basic point is the same.)

Answer 4

I guess you don't know history. For the past 4,000+ years that land belonged to the Jews. The reason it is called Palestien is because the Roman Empire made it a providential name. Palestien does not exist any longer. Arabs have always wanted that land. Why? Who knows. Their nuts.

Answer 5

Where do they belong??? Mars? How much land do Arabs have in Africa and Asia? Jews can't have their own state in their incestral homeland? What came first, Israel or "Palestine"? Israel is the size of New Jersey. How big is Jordan? Egypt? Syria? Saudi Arabia? Lybia?
