This question is really in response to a question posed by Just Yak'n in which he states that there is no such thing as Palestinians - no seperate culture, language, etc - so the Jews have the right to the area and all the others should just leave.
If Jews have the right to land they held 2,000 years ago, then certainly Americans, who have no seperate culture or language and who are just immigrants, should go back to Europe and give the land back to the Native Americans nations which existed only a couple hundred years ago. Also, the Anglo Saxons, being Germanic, need to leave the UK and give it back to the Celts, who held the land 1,500 years ago. Shall I give more examples?
What do you all think?

The most common myths the Jewish enforce on other inhabitants of the world are:
1- They are the only chosen people of God and the rest are just animals created in human shape to serve them.
2- The holocaust and the killing of six millions! of them?
3- Anti-Semitism: and although Arabs descended from the same father (Sam), but they shouldn't be given the privileges of Anti-Semitic laws.
4- Palestine was an empty land with no nation, the Jews were a nation without land, then the Jewish should be given Palestine.
5- Palestine was given by God to the Jews!!!???
For those of them who still use their mental capabilities I say rethink again, because the holy Quran in a very clear sign and a complex prophecy indicates that Muslims will soon recapture Palestine:

The land of "Israel" should be split in half. The northern half would be Palestine and the southern half Israel.
The new Israel and new Palestine completely disarmed, by force if needed.
In the middle occupying Jerusalem would be the new U.N. HQ with a corridor that divides these lands from the Mediterranean to the Red Sea. Stationed there should be 200,000 man Rapid Reaction Force capable of delivering a serious smack down to ANYONE in the region that acts out of line.

Your logic is correct. I am jewish, and even I get tired of Jews saying that Israel "belongs" to the jews by some historical right. You know who has the right to land - whoever conquered it most recently - that's who!
When the jews from the holocaust were given Israel by the Balfour declaration, it's was a humanitarian thing to do. But how do you think the exiled Palestinians felt? Of course, they want their land back.
The problem is, neither side really to share, and that is just sad. They don't want to share because of ideological difference they cannot put aside.

It's not the same. Jews have lived in Israel continuously for thousands of years -- they didn't just return in 1948. In fact, since ancient Israel's fall, the country has been ruled successively by foreign empires, but never existed as a country of its own -- and generally, Israel existed as a forgotten corner of those empires.
After centuries of neglect, Israel's population was only about 350,000 in the 1800's when Jews living in other parts of the world began to return. Land that wasn't already owned by Jews was purchased, often at exorbitant prices. At this time, the Jewish pioneers drained swamps and made the deserts bloom -- this is the time when many of the present-day "Palestinians" ancestors arrived from other Arab countries such as Syria. They came as migrant workers to work in the thriving land that Jews were finally reclaiming.
And from a Biblical perspective, Jews are the only people in the world to have a title deed to the land they're on. God promised that land to the Jewish people in the Bible.

This land goes back more than 2000 years and it belongs to the Jews because God gave it to them.

When did God give the land to the Indians?
You find that I'll give the land back!

There have been Jews in the area for thousands of years. And for one hundred years before 1948 the population was steadily growing. The Jews were content to live alongside the Arabs. The Arabs refused and attacked. Read some history instead of all the propaganda.

Wait, so according to you the people who currently hold the land own it? Well we hold the land, so GET OUT! We had it first, and we have it now.

That makes since...if all the immagranst were to leave, say the Anglo saxons and their desentants, that would leave America to the Native Americans.....and the African Americans because we are not immagrants....we were brought against our will. We get to stay.

Good point
Jews are the cursed nations ever existed. The difference is they are still alive and living on earth.
I believe Israel will be their future graveyard
