What side in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is right?

Question

We the israelis are divided to right and left. the right is support in decisiveness toward the palestinian, and the left's opinion is to make a peace with them, and giving them full rights.
From what side are you?

Answer 1

i support israel! and the israeli defense force kicks @ss..
and thank you israel for the desert eagle .50!! ;)

Answer 2

The Israeli side. The Koran even says Israel is Jewish land and not to attack the Jews and the Christians because all three worship the same god.

The Palestinians are just not that bright. Syria is spending money, crediability and men to undercut Lebanon in order to have more access to the ocean. Beach front property is prime property anywhere in the world and the Palesinians on the west bank are sitting on it. Do you know how rich the west bank could be if it called it quits and modeled itself off of Taiwan and Japan (two small but rich areas that have little resources of their own)? Instead they would rather live in squallier and blame others for their problems.

Answer 3

I think there is no such thing as a Palestinian and the Jordanians should take them. That's what they are. They don't want peace. The United Nations gave Israel land May 5, 1948. The next day, Jordan, Egypt and Syria attacked. Israel won and went back to its borders. Then in the late 50's, 1967 and 1973, Jordan, Egypt and Syria attacked again. Finally, Israel kept the West Bank of the Jordan River to protect itself from Jordan, the Golan Heights to protect itself from Syria and the Gaza strip and Sinai Peninsula to protect itself from Egypt. Then, the Arabs claimed Israel took their land! Look at what is happening in Lebanon and Gaza. Israel left those areas and terrorists enter. I'm with the Israeli right. The Arabs want to perpetuate "Palestinian" discord so as to sway worldwide opinion against the Jews as "oppressors." They are insanely jealous and want Jerusalem. But they never get it once Israel got its country back. Personally, I want that golden dome down on Mt. Moriah!

Answer 4

i does not say all yet surely the final public, and that's because of the fact Jerusalem is known because of the fact the third maximum holiest place for Muslims and it has a great magnitude in Islam so it concerns human beings now that this is now no longer under Palestinian administration. additionally to any rational individual the Palestinians are the oppressed and helping the oppressed is an extremely vast component to Islamic ideology. As for Arabs very nearly all of them (no rely if or no longer they are Christian or Muslim) help Palestine reason of course it became Arab land and the indigenous inhabitants of Palestine for the previous couple of hundreds of years, a minimum of, are Arab so that they see it as somebody stole their land, so yeh this is nationalism yet lower back Islam performs a great section in it too because of the fact the final public of Arabs are Muslim.

Answer 5

You cannot make peace now; the Palestinians are at war with each other; Hamas v. Fatah.

However, I would advocate trying to broker a peace pact, in which both nations recognize each others sovereignty.

Otherwise, war we must, to protect our people and secure the peace. Living in daily terror is no way to live.

Answer 6

MGKAZAN: Er, excuse me, but how do you work out that 'Jews were the indirect cause of world war two'???? Anybody over the age of ten knows that the Jews were slaughtered in concentration camps during this war.

Clearly you have no understanding of either basic world history, nor the Middle East situation.

As for the original question:

There has been a continual Jewish presence in what is now Israel for over three thousand years. Britain divided the land and in 1948, the Jewish people got half, and the Arabs who were living there got the other half. Remember that until 1967, some TWO decades after Israel was created, there was no such thing as the 'Palestinian people' as we know them today. They referred to themselves as Arabs and were essentially just nomads who did nothing with the land.

Even prior to 1948, Jewish people were living there and irrigating the land, and transforming it from barren desert into a lush, green home.

It's not the fault of Israel that the Arab world rejected the very idea of a Jewish state, and declared war, then simultaneously attacking Israel; this, of course, was the 1948 war of independence.

And yes, during this war, Israel did get more land, which of course she kept because the surrounding Muslim countries were using these bits of land to launch attacks on Israeli citizens. What sane nation on this planet gives land back to enemies who have just attacked it, merely for existing???

Remember too that the Arabs who left their homes in Israel in 1948 did so because the surrounding Muslim countries told them to, promising to return and purge the whole area of Jews. 68 per cent of those Arabs fled their homes without even SEEING an Israeli.

The Palestinians have been treated terribly, this I agree with, but not by Israel. They have been betrayed by their Muslim brothers in Jordan, Syria, Egypt, who refused to absorb them or to provide them with help. What did Egypt do when she controlled Gaza? SHE MINED THE BORDERS SO THE PALESTINIANS COULD NOT LEAVE.

What did Jordan do to the Palestinians? Admitted a quota, and then PUT THEM IN REFUGEE CAMPS AND LEFT THEM THERE.

Answer 7

There is no right or wrong.

However I choose to be on Palestine's side. Though in ancient history, those lands belonged to the Jews, Arabs have controlled it for centuries. I think it is absolutely unfair that in the 1940's, European powers threw Palestinians out of the region and declared the region a Jewish Republic. Rather than being thankful and appreciative, the Jews just want more land, therefore are trying to expand their borders.

Though that is a somewhat bias point of view, its basically the truth. The jews are thankful from the Europeans for helping them, yet in reality, the truth is that European countries gave the lands to Jews to get rid of Jews. Jews were an indirect cause for World War 2, therefore Europeans wanted to get rid of them. What better than to please them and send them hundreds of miles away!

Answer 8

Don't choose side brother, is there really a right or wrong? Is it right to separate the parents from their children with a wall? But they did it to protect your family...right? Your army send war planes and helicopters to kill the murders but why does it ended with women and children dying? Did their husbands or fathers had committed the crime? I don't really understand why they love to blow themselves up? Or throw stones at soldiers? Cuz the Quran did not say blow yourself up or throw stone at them and Allah will punish the infidels. To stop the conflict is to stop the killing. But which side will take the first step? Peace be upon u brother.

Answer 9

if we want to follow history then the US should belong to the indians.they have been living there for thousand of years when suddenly europeans came and exile them from their ancestor's land.to simply come and murdered other people because those land belong to your ancestors thousands of years ago is not right.i bet u don't even know their names or faces.those palestinians still remember names of their fathers,mothers and grandma.they even still remember where their house were located and plants that they sowed.

Answer 10

Neither side can be right... the land being fought over has changed hands many times over the centuries, and every attack seems to be a response to a previous one.

Answer 11

Isreal always, the shining beacon of freedom in the desert.
