  Palestine never existed AS a country or state! the people living in there have always called themself Arab, or Syrian. interestingly some Jews were called Palestinain Jews, Palestine was the coastal town with in Israel, or Canaan .Israel became a nation after leaving Egypt led by Moses approx 3300 years ago. the HIS-Story said Genesis 17:8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God. Exodus 33:1 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, [and] go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it, :2 And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:...... To those who doesnot believe God: unless so called Palestinain are the offspring of Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, they have no right what so ever to claim this land.

  There has never been any such thing as a Palestinian people. Name me the first leader of the "Palestinians". Tell me any history at all of this nation.

    You are regurgitating Gloda Meir's nonsense, "land without people for people without land." Even ardent zionists have dropped this narrative. Modern day Zionist Israeli leadership hails from Eastern Europe from Hertzel to Netanyahu (originally Milikovsky).

    It was originally "owned" by the Canaanites Amr. Then the Hebrew people. The "Arabs" came later and the Palestinians are just Arabs like the other Arabs scattered all over the Middle East. Palestine was a British creation.

    American were people at times British thought indecent and send them off to America, where they have been given a choice " kill native Americans or what we Know as Red Indians and in return you will be the owner of land you occupy and British Emperor will collet the tax s levy every year on the yield of crops etc till Boston uprisig. In War against Nazis The British promised to jews for a Jewish Homeland against financial and help, thus was created the Israel. It is not a question of who owns the land. The question is how long the Israeli public will stay and survive with in the walled compounds, somehow you have to accept the truth and the history or evidence is clear and can be seen in photos.

You are a citizen of a country despite your religion or your race. So I think people should stop and consider living together. Just for the record there is some Arabs in Israel who live normal life and they are in the Israeli parliament. get over it people.

    So they had a governor like when the Romans occupied. Its still just an occupied territory -- it was never a state or kingdom or anything of the sort. Just a geographical convenience populated by all kinds of people -- not "Palestinians".

 

• Mark Thompson
  A I have Scottish ancestry -- they had a king and a history. They are also Celtic as is Ireland. Celtic doesnt make them a nation. But nationhood does. The" Palestinians" are Arab and many of them are from Lebanon and Syria. That just makes them Arab refugees -- not "Palestinian"

  So Debora -- Having no right to exist. Is that a good thing? Many of the "Palestinians" came down from Lebanon as refugees. They never had homes in Israel. So called Palestinians also never built roads or water systems or any other infrastructure. Israel has kicked its own people out of settlements that they built and given them to the "Palestinians" that built nothing. Israel supplies water and power and many other things to the "Palestinians" that seem (no matter how much money we give them) to be unable to take care of themselves.

  Its not about people who lived there, or people who live there now, no matter the restrictions imposed. This is about finding the humanity in our fellow man. Both sides are at fault. Israel has a position of leadership and they are throwing it away, this is a human rights abuse (endorsed and funded by the US).
  If a group was maligned us much as the Palestinians have been in the US, there would be outrage.
  Bottom line is, the leadership on both sides need to look to tomorrow and a peaceful solution. This won't happen though because everyone is doing religious gymnastics.

  I admit that as a Christian, I have an affinity for the Israelis and as an Human I have a disdain for Islam. But, I think Im looking at this logically. Jews have alway been in Israel. The fact that Palestinians are Arabs cannot be denied. Arabs occupy most of the middle east. So --- there should be plenty of room for Arabs that are largely refugees from Lebannon (yes some are rebels from Israel). Arabs and even "Palestinians" can and do live peacefully in Israel. So it would seem that the problem is largely the Palestinian in Muslim hatred.

  all the justification of Israel to that land in 2000+ history makes me angry as it is ridiculous since if everyone would assume this kind of thinking what would happen in Europe or America for that matter, would that be fair?What will happen if everyone starts claiming they historic lands? I understand the need of Israelis to have they place that they can call home but what was wrong with UN plan? What is the justification of chasing away natives(yes those Palestinians, Arabs and whatever you want to call them are natives) Now since 1947 both sides have people born into that land who deserve peaceful life on their land and it's a pity that noone cares and it doesn't matter

  Bombs and missles and bullets are a good reason to "chase them away" Anna. It seems that I remember "Palestinians" that lived in Lebanon when Lebanon was so chaotic. The PLO was there and they basically recruited and created Palestinians who then laid claim to Israel. Arabs live in Israel now and they did then. The "Palestinians" seem to me to be basically a creation of the Anti Semite Muslims.

  Its true that some called themselves Palestinians and they were given the West Bank and Gaza as that is where they lived already.(most of them) Arafat however brought more and more "Palestinians" down from Lebanon. They were not "Palestinians", they were Arab refugees from Lebanon.

  Mark Thompson it seems like you should write new history books of your own as your historical information are different from the known history. It's too obvious which side you support and they way you show them as victims and that the Arab terrorists are killing them for no reason also shows that you will say anything even if it is a pure lie just to support your argument. You are an American and by law you have the right to shot anyone that enters your home without permission to hurt you and your family or for whatever reason but at the same time you deny the Palestinians the right to do the same thing and you call it terrorism . Hippocratic way of thinking supported by a bunch of lies thats what i saw in all your comments.

  Palestinians don't exist! Hhhhhhhhhhhh... Originally God threw the jews out of palestine and left them without country, they don't have home.. This is mentioned in the holly Quraan. then palestine was owned by arabs who were called later the palestians and they lived in it for a long time.. However, palestine fell under the british colonozation and after the second world war Belfor promised the jews palestine.. And these murderers (jews) colonized paleststine, killed the owners of the land (the palestinians) and named it israel..any kid knows this information!! Palestine was, is and will always be an arabian country and these jews israeli people will be thrown out of palestine soon

  That logic doesn't justify a massive Jewish military operation to ethnically cleanse the land through massive military operations in 1948 that destroyed thousands of villages and sent millions fleeing as refugees to other states. Palestine does appear on maps over a 1000 years old, but hey, if logic doesn't apply, why should facts? Israel is a rabidly racist state with no superior claim to liquidating another ethnicity for their homelands than the Germans did in the 1940s. Jews, astonishingly, don't see the tragic irony of that. I guess they should be both pitied and punished.

    Sarah because every one has his perspective according to the beliefs that he was raised on since he was a baby, that's why it's difficult to change what you believe even if so many people are opposing you,, that's why no one in this post, despite all these years, changed his perspective, even if they have to deal with hundreds of people who are against their point of views, they won't change their opinions especially if it's something vital and is mentioned in religions like the issue of palestine

  The Muslims and Jews lived quite peacefully throughout history. But present day Israel is comprised mostly of Zionist jews. The blond haired, blue eyed europeans who converted to Judaism sometime in history. Remember that Judaism is a racial religion. You need to be BORN a jew, to bee a jew. While the zionists were CONVERTS to Judaism and integrated themselves into the Jewish community. Furthermore, TRUE Jews have a great affinity for Arabs, not hatred. The hebrew speaking people and the arabic speaking people have always, even unto this day, considered each other to be close cousins in affection, if not brother/sisters.

  Palestine is a construct. The so called Palestinian people never existed. They are mostly populated with people from other surrounding nations who occupied land they did not own under British rule.

  Carl Roberts, you are talking would have when clearly, the non Zionist Jews were living there long before this in peace. This is not a would have situation. Life was fine, then the Zionist movement in conjunction with the west, piloted to disrupt the east for oil and power.

What you see is a mirror of American history all over. Aggression, subversion, poor foreign policy. Just another usable nation like the Native Americans, west Africans, Hawaii, the list goes on. Power and control thru overwhelming force and media propaganda

  Fucking barbaric. Anyone who still believes in this dark-ages "Man in the sky in a toga" bullshit can crawl back in to the cave from which they seem to have been living for hundreds of years.
  ALL religion; Jewish, Islamic, Christian or any other form of faith, is nothing more than a bunch of archaic writing written for an unenlightened, young and naive people who needed a form of control, an answer to everything and a set of laws with which to follow. It was created by simple people for simple people.
  I have no sympathy for anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who dies for such a hoax.
  Some of the comments I've read on here have made me positively sick, quoting texts from whatever book you've pulled it from as if it is some kind of justifiable fact.
  I could quote Lord of the Rings at you and use it to justify making a massive mine or forging a ring with my own blood. Some of these arguments attempt to be intelligent, but they are just intelligently worded medieval hysteria.

  I Think this is a result of losing 3 wars that was fought to eliminate Israel from the land. Had the Palestinian people accepted the offer made by the British and French mandate they would have had a homeland now and perhaps would have been in a position to negotiate with their neighbour in relation to their future

I do not think that god would ever say in the bible or any other holy script; that it's OK to murder women and children to reclaim what god gave to you; your reasoning in defense of what "Zionists" are doing in "Palestine" is pretty week and unacceptable and with all due respect I hope less people in the world make their judgements through this point of view.

  Palestine never existed AS a country or state! the people living in there have always called themself Arab, or Syrian. interestingly some Jews were called Palestinain Jews, Palestine was the coastal town with in Israel, or Canaan .Israel became a nation after leaving Egypt led by Moses approx 3300 years ago. the HIS-Story said Genesis 17:8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God. Exodus 33:1 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, [and] go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it, :2 And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:...... To those who doesnot believe God: unless so called Palestinain are the offspring of Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, they have no right what so ever to claim this land.

    You are regurgitating Gloda Meir's nonsense, "land without people for people without land." Even ardent zionists have dropped this narrative. Modern day Zionist Israeli leadership hails from Eastern Europe from Hertzel to Netanyahu (originally Milikovsky).

    It was originally "owned" by the Canaanites Amr. Then the Hebrew people. The "Arabs" came later and the Palestinians are just Arabs like the other Arabs scattered all over the Middle East. Palestine was a British creation.

    American were people at times British thought indecent and send them off to America, where they have been given a choice " kill native Americans or what we Know as Red Indians and in return you will be the owner of land you occupy and British Emperor will collet the tax s levy every year on the yield of crops etc till Boston uprisig. In War against Nazis The British promised to jews for a Jewish Homeland against financial and help, thus was created the Israel. It is not a question of who owns the land. The question is how long the Israeli public will stay and survive with in the walled compounds, somehow you have to accept the truth and the history or evidence is clear and can be seen in photos.

    A I have Scottish ancestry -- they had a king and a history. They are also Celtic as is Ireland. Celtic doesnt make them a nation. But nationhood does. The" Palestinians" are Arab and many of them are from Lebanon and Syria. That just makes them Arab refugees -- not "Palestinian"

    So Debora -- Having no right to exist. Is that a good thing? Many of the "Palestinians" came down from Lebanon as refugees. They never had homes in Israel. So called Palestinians also never built roads or water systems or any other infrastructure. Israel has kicked its own people out of settlements that they built and given them to the "Palestinians" that built nothing. Israel supplies water and power and many other things to the "Palestinians" that seem (no matter how much money we give them) to be unable to take care of themselves.

    Its not about people who lived there, or people who live there now, no matter the restrictions imposed. This is about finding the humanity in our fellow man. Both sides are at fault. Israel has a position of leadership and they are throwing it away, this is a human rights abuse (endorsed and funded by the US).
    If a group was maligned us much as the Palestinians have been in the US, there would be outrage.
    Bottom line is, the leadership on both sides need to look to tomorrow and a peaceful solution. This won't happen though because everyone is doing religious gymnastics.

    I admit that as a Christian, I have an affinity for the Israelis and as an Human I have a disdain for Islam. But, I think Im looking at this logically. Jews have alway been in Israel. The fact that Palestinians are Arabs cannot be denied. Arabs occupy most of the middle east. So --- there should be plenty of room for Arabs that are largely refugees from Lebannon (yes some are rebels from Israel). Arabs and even "Palestinians" can and do live peacefully in Israel. So it would seem that the problem is largely the Palestinian in Muslim hatred.

    all the justification of Israel to that land in 2000+ history makes me angry as it is ridiculous since if everyone would assume this kind of thinking what would happen in Europe or America for that matter, would that be fair?What will happen if everyone starts claiming they historic lands? I understand the need of Israelis to have they place that they can call home but what was wrong with UN plan? What is the justification of chasing away natives(yes those Palestinians, Arabs and whatever you want to call them are natives) Now since 1947 both sides have people born into that land who deserve peaceful life on their land and it's a pity that noone cares and it doesn't matter

    Bombs and missles and bullets are a good reason to "chase them away" Anna. It seems that I remember "Palestinians" that lived in Lebanon when Lebanon was so chaotic. The PLO was there and they basically recruited and created Palestinians who then laid claim to Israel. Arabs live in Israel now and they did then. The "Palestinians" seem to me to be basically a creation of the Anti Semite Muslims.

    Its true that some called themselves Palestinians and they were given the West Bank and Gaza as that is where they lived already.(most of them) Arafat however brought more and more "Palestinians" down from Lebanon. They were not "Palestinians", they were Arab refugees from Lebanon.

    Mark Thompson it seems like you should write new history books of your own as your historical information are different from the known history. It's too obvious which side you support and they way you show them as victims and that the Arab terrorists are killing them for no reason also shows that you will say anything even if it is a pure lie just to support your argument. You are an American and by law you have the right to shot anyone that enters your home without permission to hurt you and your family or for whatever reason but at the same time you deny the Palestinians the right to do the same thing and you call it terrorism . Hippocratic way of thinking supported by a bunch of lies thats what i saw in all your comments.

    Palestinians don't exist! Hhhhhhhhhhhh... Originally God threw the jews out of palestine and left them without country, they don't have home.. This is mentioned in the holly Quraan. then palestine was owned by arabs who were called later the palestians and they lived in it for a long time.. However, palestine fell under the british colonozation and after the second world war Belfor promised the jews palestine.. And these murderers (jews) colonized paleststine, killed the owners of the land (the palestinians) and named it israel..any kid knows this information!! Palestine was, is and will always be an arabian country and these jews israeli people will be thrown out of palestine soon

    That logic doesn't justify a massive Jewish military operation to ethnically cleanse the land through massive military operations in 1948 that destroyed thousands of villages and sent millions fleeing as refugees to other states. Palestine does appear on maps over a 1000 years old, but hey, if logic doesn't apply, why should facts? Israel is a rabidly racist state with no superior claim to liquidating another ethnicity for their homelands than the Germans did in the 1940s. Jews, astonishingly, don't see the tragic irony of that. I guess they should be both pitied and punished.

  The Muslims and Jews lived quite peacefully throughout history. But present day Israel is comprised mostly of Zionist jews. The blond haired, blue eyed europeans who converted to Judaism sometime in history. Remember that Judaism is a racial religion. You need to be BORN a jew, to bee a jew. While the zionists were CONVERTS to Judaism and integrated themselves into the Jewish community. Furthermore, TRUE Jews have a great affinity for Arabs, not hatred. The hebrew speaking people and the arabic speaking people have always, even unto this day, considered each other to be close cousins in affection, if not brother/sisters.

  Fucking barbaric. Anyone who still believes in this dark-ages "Man in the sky in a toga" bullshit can crawl back in to the cave from which they seem to have been living for hundreds of years.
  ALL religion; Jewish, Islamic, Christian or any other form of faith, is nothing more than a bunch of archaic writing written for an unenlightened, young and naive people who needed a form of control, an answer to everything and a set of laws with which to follow. It was created by simple people for simple people.
  I have no sympathy for anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who dies for such a hoax.
  Some of the comments I've read on here have made me positively sick, quoting texts from whatever book you've pulled it from as if it is some kind of justifiable fact.
  I could quote Lord of the Rings at you and use it to justify making a massive mine or forging a ring with my own blood. Some of these arguments attempt to be intelligent, but they are just intelligently worded medieval hysteria.

I do not think that god would ever say in the bible or any other holy script; that it's OK to murder women and children to reclaim what god gave to you; your reasoning in defense of what "Zionists" are doing in "Palestine" is pretty week and unacceptable and with all due respect I hope less people in the world make their judgements through this point of view.

You better dump your god who lies to you, his words are not very reliable. Join Jews in believing the GOD of Israel, who works miracles through out Jewish history.

    Palestine has a right to be. Israel is taking that right along with the land.

    Israel is granting Palestine from a coastal town of Israel to be a state, but Palestinian refuse lsrael's right to exist. You better pray Israel stays nice and kind for ever, other wise you know what will happen to this prodigal and still un repented son.

  10% of the population of what is now Israel was Jewish in 1917 - fact
  Now they have kicked out the majority of the 90% that lived there and they need to kick out the rest to create a Jewish state
  Ethnic cleansing sponsored by the USA - fact
  It's still going on - fact

  If the Jews put down their guns they would be driven into the sea and slaughtered by the arabs. If the arabs put down their arms, there would be peace.

  Biggest hypocrisy in the world, how easy they forget the genocide of their race. Only reason the US support them is because in actual fact they control some of the most influence in the world through $$$$
