The Palestinian land was divided... taken away from them... and their innocent civilians are paying the price through their land, freedom, and very own lives... the media is supposed to be unbias... yet through carefully planned words and interviews and other tactics.. they are making or at least trying people all over the world feel that it is the palestinians fault... and this is all because the holocaust ?occured?.. The Palestinians didnt kill the jews.. The Germans ?did?. Then why not take Germany.

This is an excellent question. The theory of dividing a land into religious or political sects just doesn't work, just like how India was divided, and now there are more Muslims in India than in Pakistan.
At times I think that the Allied powers were pretty stupid.
You are right, the holocaust is European history; its nothing to do with Middle Eastern history. The Palestinians did unfairly pay the price for what the Jews of Europe went through. Its no wonder why talk of the holocaust is practically taboo in Europe.
Anyway, what has happened has happened. What is important now is that the Palestinians get thier own state with East Jerusalem as thier capital.
The Israelis have been building various forms of infrastructure such that the Palestinians won't have thier own nation. I am sure anyone informed enough knows what I am talking about at this point.
The kind of actions carried out by Israel against the Palestinians over a "kidnapped" soldier and thier reckless actions in Lebanon will never get them anywhere. Let alone peace.
I hope that Israel can live in peace within itself and strech its hand not only to the Palestinians but the entire Islamic world.

Your point is a good point regardless to what all of the other knuckle heads on here say. They wish to give you a history lesson and then ignore your over all point.
Why should Palestinian people be pushed off the land? Why should they be happy about being killed in order to make way for Zionism? The Zionist used terrorism to force them out and now they cry terrorism. Look at the Zionist Terrorist cry about terrorism.
Zionist say that their wish is to establish a homeland where the Jews can live in peace but shouldn't the "home land", its self, be established in peace??? How does one use terrorism to establish a peaceful home land? I am sure that the early Americans wanted a land where they could be free to practice their religion in their own way but that didn't mean that they wanted peace for the Native Americans. Just like in the Zionist state of Israel, they want peace for the occupiers and death to the original occupants.

It's not "if",it did happened,but sometimes I feel that we forget how many people died during WW2 and the only thing we remember is one number:6 millions...Yes,Jews suffered during Holocaust,but they were not the only ones...During Holocaust Gypsies,gays,Polish and anyone who was against Nazism were arrested and millions of them died too...
As for your question "why Palestinians have to pay for it",I really don't think someone can find a logical argument for this,because there isn't...Israel was created without caring that on that land Arabs were living for centuries...As I remember one of the reason the British gave Palestine to Jews was that anyway the Arabs have enough lands,so a country less wouldn't be such a big loss for them...Creating Israel was not the right solution for the Jews,nor for the Palestinians...it only caused many more problems...It was wrong to created Israel there,as it would be wrong to create it in any other place...
I believe that the creation of Israel is a mistake.The Jews were not the only victims of the Holocaust.I didn't see any Gypsy or any gay asking to have its own homeland.They continued to live in Europe,so I don't think there would have been any problem for the Jews to do it as well....

for your information there was no Israel prior to 1947 when the U,S, and Britain put Jew's in Palestine, the Jew's renamed it Israel after they stole and robbed the Palestinians of their homes businesses etc, the U.N. has a ledger where the Jew's only bought about 6 to 7 %of the land and stole the rest, and when some of you try Togo back thousands and claim the Jew's owned the land then , stop being silly very few records were kept and even then not accurate also once a land is vacated and some one else occupies it that is called home steading.but when you drive people from their homes and businesses it is called theft,

There have been times when Muslims and Jew's could not live together in peace which errupted in a catastrophic war or hate.
Muslims and Jew's are completly diffrent, therefore it leads to fear and curiousity which leads to hate and false identification about one another.
What you say is true -- The Germans should have given part of their land to the Jew's considering it (was) Hitler and his follower(s)' faults that led to this.
If you go to Palestine yourself, which I had in the recent summer, you'll see Jewish and Muslim children throwing rocks and pebbles at cars due to their greif and misery (No,not in a violent "I HATE YOU" way) -- Jewish soilders patrol streets and high way check points, and so on.
Yet it is a somewhat peaceful place if you take away the soilders and war and fighting. Most beautiful actually, yet its beauty remains hidden under the ashes of warfare.

during the background of guy each and every usa has been occupied by employing the latest arrival. It replaced into the two vacant whilst they arrived or held by employing the previous human beings to get there. the recent arrivals proved better and took over. greater moderen examples are u.s. , Australia, New Zealand and Canada.And the latest one being Israel who've proved on many events that they are good adequate to hold in there. Now it incredibly is the Arabs who choose for them out and ought to settle on regardless of if it could be wiser to co-exist with the Israeli's or spend their lives loss of existence and residing in sub universal circumstances attempting to get them out. i think there is each and every possibility that the Israeli's could help a peacefull Arab neighbour to realize a much greater effectual universal of residing than they or many different Arab international places have now.

Arabs have been killing Jews for hundreds of years before there was an Israel.
Since Israel has been established, there have been 3 wars against Israel by the combined Arabic nations. Israel has won them all.
While might does not make right, it certainly makes fact. It's time for the Arabs to move out of the territories Israel won in the defensive wars against the Arabs, and get a life.

Oh this is rich.
The poor people of Palestine have not wished to stand up the traitors in their midst who would keep them under their thumb. They are programmed to hate the people of Israel who treat them with more care than I personally think they have coming to them.
The wonderful Arab neighbors of the Israeli people have tried time and time again to kill them, and each time has been defeated. Each time the good people of Israel have been more than gracious with them. They have given back land won as a spoil of war. They have given money to rebuild those that just attacked them. They have given peace to a people who would kill them as soon as look at them.
The Palestinian nation is one built of refugees that have been refused aid from their so called friends. They have been forced into a small strip of land. Under a dictator that has the full backing of the UN.
But I digress.
As far as the MSM is concerned, their portrayal of the IDF has been one sided. For instance take a look at the latest attack on the peace loving people of Israel. Staged photos, doctored photos, the MSM was the greatest propaganda machine that a terrorist could ask for. They stood as the terrorists built the scene for them, only taking pictures when everything was in place. Cursing the IDF when it attacked the missile sites that were placed in playgrounds and hospitals. Where do you think that those rockets were landing in Israel? In neatly cleared impact zones? How about on houses, hospitals, schools.
Today we have a great opportunity to educate ourselves. We have access to the greatest library at our fingertips. We can speak across oceans for pennies. We can see and hear what is happening on the other side of the world. But still we have people who live in a state of darkness. Some because they lack the facilities to access the internet, and others merely lack the mental facilities to expand their understanding of the world around them.
Take a moment, look around. I think that you will find that the world is not as one sided as you may think.

The term "Palestine" derives from the word Philistine, the name of a non-Semitic ethnic group, originating from Southern Greece,closely related to early Mycenaean civilization. They inhabited a smaller area on the southern coast, called Philistia, whose borders approximate the modern Gaza Strip. Philistia encompassed the five cities of Gaza, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Ekron, and Gath. The Egyptian texts of the temple at Medinet Habu, record a people called the P-r-s-t (conventionally Peleset), one of the Sea Peoples who invaded Egypt in Ramesses III's reign. This is considered very likely to be a reference to the Philistines. The Hebrew name Peleshet (Hebrew: פלשת Pəléshseth), usually translated as Philistia in English, is used in the Bible to denote their southern coastal region.
The last Philistine cities were destroyed in ca. 604 BCE by Nebuchadnezzar II, King of Babylon, who exiled the remaining inhabitants to Mesopotamia. Thus ended the Philistines political history. People of Philistine origin (living in sites named after Gaza and Ashkelon) continue to live in Babylon until the mid-5th century BCE, but subsequently, there are no further mentions.
Palestine was but a province when part of the Ottoman Empire.
Don't blame the Jews for the genocide of Arab against Arab; no different than Shiite against Sunni.

Maybe due to historic and religious affiliations that the Jews have with the area of Israel.
Christians, Jews & Muslims all have religious connectivity to the area.
