Good one.
Good post! Yeah, if we all have to go back to "where we came from" I'm screwed. I'll have to be chopped up in little pieces and sprinkled all over Europe, from Ireland to Denmark to Italy. Bummer.
These misbegotten fools think that some U.N. resolution or "peace treaty" engineered by man asserting their "right of return" can overrule the certainty of return for the Jews according to the Word of the One God. allah is not God and, no, it wasn't by mistake that I started that sentence without using a capital.
All the Arab lands must be immediately returned to Christians.
The three places in the bible where it explicitly says the jews purchased are basically controlled by the arabs now. The temple mount which was purchased by king david, the graves of abraham and sarah in hebron, and the tomb of joseph which is in nablus all controlled by arabs.
Mecca and Medina must be immediately returned to the Christians.
What about folks that migrated from Atlantis before it sank? What are they supposed to do?
So, basically, neither the Palestinians nor Jews have any rights to the land? Hmmm. Are you thinking what I am? The Brits could claim it, move everyone out, and set up some damn nice resorts on the Mediterranean!! : )
Why do you think that the Arabs are destroying Jewish archaelogical sites in the lands they presently control? They want to erase all evidence of the 1,900-year-old claim.
Ping
Sure this article wasn't written by Straw Man?
Good one!
In fact it is so thoughtful that I copied this article to my home page!
Ping!
Then Palestine should awarded back to the people who named it. Italy!

Israel is not much different from any other country, really.
All countries came to existence by stating their claim on the territory and then defending the claim. If there is a country that NEVER had to defend its borders, I don't know any, and would appreciate to be educated on this. (The divorces establishing Czechia, Slovakia, ex-Soviet Republics were peaceful now, but their historical borders were not).
Israel is somewhat unique because its existence was sanctioned by the United Nations in modern times. And we are witnessing history in making that is much different from analyzing historical borders of France, for example. Nevertheless, this experience is only "somewhat" unique, because after the declaring herself, Israel had to prove herself in the old-fashioned way: with arms and blood. Would Israel perish under the joined attack of its Arab neighbors, UN would NOT re-establish her again.
So, Israel earned her existence by defending herself again-and-again and then proved the stake to the land again by creating an oasis of prosperity and agricultural marvel in the destitute inhospitable place. How is it less noble than coming to existence of all other countries? If others suffer historical amnesia and forgot the blood spilled by their own ancestors (rightly or wrongly), it does not change the facts. Like everybody else Israel had to fight to survive and earned her existence.
