If you are aware of what Nonie Darwish has been sharing on national television or if you've read her book "Now they call me infidel." or if you would go to www.arabsforisrael.com and review what she is saying.

Then give me your view on why or why you don't believe her.

Please reason intelligently...thanks

you need to simplify things as much as you can but not more than that.

I am not going to lecture history here I will just quote other people with references that you can verify for yourself.

you can start to understand the Palestinian-Israeli issue by reading this quote

"As the Israeli War of Independence broke, Irgun fighters joined forces with the Haganah and Lehi militia in fighting the Arab forces. Notable operations in which they took part were the battles of Jaffa, Haifa, and the Jordanian siege on the Jewish Quarter in the Old City of Jerusalem. One such operation in the Palestinian village of Deir Yassin in April 1948, which resulted in the death of more than a hundred Palestinian civilians, remains a source of controversy. Some have accused the Jewish forces of committing war crimes, while others hold those were legitimate acts of warfare, however it is generally accepted that the Irgun and Lehi forces who took part in the attack carried out a brutal assault upon what was predominantly a civilian population. As the Irgun’s leader, Begin has been accused of being responsible for the atrocities that had allegedly taken place, even though he did not partake in them."

this is from Menachem Begin biography at Wikipedia and here is the link

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menachem_Begin

this is another quote from the same source
"Deir Yassin is remembered… for the atrocities committed by the IZL and LHI troops during and immediately after the drawn-out battle: Whole families were riddled with bullets… men, women, and children were mowed down as they emerged from houses; individuals were taken aside and shot." Haganah intelligence reported "there were piles of dead. Some of the prisoners moved to places of incarceration, including women and children, were murdered viciously by their captors… LHI members… relate that the IZL men raped a number of Arab girls and murdered them afterward (we don't know if this is true)." Another intelligence operative (who visited the site hours after the event) reported the "adult males were taken to town Jerusalem in trucks and paraded in the city streets, then taken back to the site and killed… Before they were put on the trucks, the IZL and LHI men searched the women, men, and children [and] took from them all the jewelry and stole their money." Finally, the "Haganah made great efforts to hide its part in the operation…"

Israel is not Jewish it is Zionist and there is a huge difference between the two.

well I thought I did answer your questions but it looks like I have to do more explanations.

As you might have seen I tried directing you to the roots of the problem by mentioning what happened to the Palestinians and this is the core of the problem.

who is she to give the land to the Israelis this is for the MAJORITY of the PALESTINIANS to decide.

if the land is tiny as mentioned then there should be no problem finding a similar tiny peace of land for them some where else.
