Then let's give the Hare Krishnas a country in India, the Orthodoxs a country in Greece... I really think Israel is a lump in the Middle Eastern natural Arabic esence. Now they are "defending" their country, but when Palestinians try to defend their own land they are terrorists... haha! This is a weird unfair world.

If you know anything about history, then you would know that throughout history the Jews would end their Passover celebration with the words "next time in Jerusalam". Throughout history the Jews had been praying to get control of Palestine. There were many Zionist movements in Europe and these people put pressure on England (England control Palestine then), and England partly gave in and let some Zionists take root in Palestine. Then there was Hitler who persecuted and killed 6 million jews. The people of the west believed the jews needed a place where they would be safe, and the Zionist wanted Palestine. When the United Nation created Israel it was supposed to be a small portion of Palestine - not the whole thing.

Jews deserve to be treated with the same love and respect due any of God's children.
They are the chosen people because they have been blessed to be the nation from which Messiah came.
Unfortunately, that didn't (and can't) save them. Only faith in Jesus Christ can.
God fulfilled all the promises he made to Israel when he conducted the Israelites across the Jordan and into the promised land.
God fulfilled all the promises he made to Abraham when he founded the new covenant church.
Any other promises to be found in scripture look forward for their fulfillment to the next earth age, when Christ comes again.
Unless the Jews decide to come to Christ, they can look forward to more of the same kinds of troubles.
Until then, they are on their own!

It isn't a case of us or anyone else giving anyone their own country.
The Jewish people, or more correctly the Hebrew people were given the land of Israel by God.
It is their land not the land of the Palestinians or anyone else.
Actually it's one of the few things that has been done correctly and even it's not fully correct as the borders are not what God said.

One word - Zionism. Zionism (by deceiving the colonial powers in Arabia) helped give the "Jews" their current home.
The Greeks have had their own country since 1821. They had to fight the Turks for their freedom.
Hare Krishna is a movement.
Problem - Jews lost their national homeland when they were carried away by Babylon.
Jews rejected Jesus, losing their promised Messiah, the son of King David.
Most of the world is rejecting Jesus.

Palestine never owned that land. Prior to 1948, it was owned by Britian. Therefor, it was British Territory, and Britian gave it to Holocaust Survivors so they could have a land to flee too.
The intent was for Palestinians and Israeli's to leave in peace, which the holocaust survivors oked. However, the Palestinians refused and fled to Jordan, giving the land to Israel. They attacked twice and lost the war.
If you have any history of war, you know, when you lose, you lose territory- like Germany, like the Austrian Hungarian empire, like the Ottoman Empire, Like the mexico american wars.
However, Palestine uses terroristic warfare after losing twice, therefor, considered Terrorists on Israeli land.

Why doesn't everyone realize that Israelis were there centuries before Palestinians even were created? It's not the Palestinians' land to defend!

Maybe the people who think what is happening is so wonderful should have to give up their homes to native americans. It would make a lot more sense.
