Anyone with a few minutes who wants to understand things about the eeeevil Israelis and the poor, downtrodden Pali's need only look at a mid-east map. I use the Utexas site which has great maps.

The Israeli's occupy a tiny piece of dirt and sand which was trash when they were given it by the U.N. in 1947. It was little more than barren ground. The Israeli's improved that little piece of drek immeasurably -- now the Arabs think they can't live another day unless they get that piece of land back. In my book, that's called robbery.

The Pali's were thrown out of all the other Arab countries and exiled to the area they and Israel now occupy; they've always been pains in the tush, even to other Arabs. Yet the Pali's are so angry because Israel occupies a part of the land that they never made liveable themselves. If the Pali's want an enemy they should bitch about the U.N. which was the donor of that garbage pit to the Israeli's in the first place.

Lastly, on the map ref, the Israeli's occupy a teeny piece of ground and number a few millions. They are surrounded by gazillions of Arabs and huge numbers of square kilometers of sand and dirt - yet the Arabs think that that specific site needs to belong to Arabs again after the Arabs demonstrated zero desire for that territory for centuries?

To the Arabs, I say use a ready resource, pound sand.

Right! And when the Palestinians do get a piece back, like the Gaza strip and the greenhouses, they trash everything. I have a friend who says these people don't live in the desert; they create the desert.
