No lame "they started it" crap. That is totally kindergarten.

sorry about that wierd added detail. This is my first question :).

As for not existing as a country I'm sure that if we recognized the UN as having any kind of authority than we all should recognize Israel's right to exist in the land "the world" agreed upon. Unless of course the only resolutions that matter are the ones in favor of the Islamic states, which is how it seems.

Answer 1

Palestinians do not even have the rockets to fire!!! they're being fired at...sometimes throw stones or bomb themselves to death with primitive bombs because they do not have the technology nor the money for anything else.

Answer 2

The Palestinians feel that their land was stolen from them when it was given to the Jews back in the 1940's. Years later, countries invaded Israel trying to reclaim that land they felt was stolen from them and given to the Jews as a homeland after WWII and the Holocaust. Israel instead of being defeated, defeated their invaders and kept some of the land of the countries that invaded them after the war was over. This further angered those countries that demanded the land be given back. Some of these countries still won't rest until Israel no longer exhists.

Unlike in Western civilization, grudges like this normally get passed down for generations. Also, with the many attacks that Israel endures the more it has to tighten down security. The more it tightens down security, the more the Palestinians revolt. Even when Israel gives up ground in exchange for peace it often can be viewed by the Palestinians as them winning the war against Israel and making Israel give in instead of a move towards peace.

I don't see the situation getting better anytime soon. Both sides have legitimate complaints. Only unless both sides decide to stop the fighting and to share the land together will their ever be peace there. Fences, border lines, and walls will only make the conflict worse and divide instead of unite.

Answer 3

It has been stated that the Arabs never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. They could have had a state, which was offered to them by Israeli former PM Barak, but they chose terror as a way of making Israel disappear.

We must bear in mind that Arabs do not think the way we do, so their conclusions are not rational ones. And their hate for a Jewish state far exceeds their desire to have another Arab state for their own.

Thus, when the Jews left them hothouses in Gaza, so that the Arabs could prosper economically, the Arabs chose to dismantle the hothouses for scrap. And to turn the pipes into launchers for the Qassam rockets. And to dwell in poverty because they don't have the hothouses to provide income.

Don't try to understand their mentality. It is hopeless.

Answer 4

Because they don't view Jews as equal human beings.

Plus, Israel and the rest of the world lets them get away with bombing those Jewish communities.

Answer 5

maybe because Israel starts first. The state even existed before 50

Answer 6

That's a good question. Watch the 'human rights' groups defame Israel while they let Palestine off the hook.

Answer 7

In Israel and Palestine, i see no possibility to stop the conflict. There are two peoples for one land. So long tnen one does not stop fighting, it will continue

very sad

Answer 8

The map of Israel and Palestine says it all:-
