Thanks!
Yes, the Jews deserve a nation in Israel but at the same time it resulted at the loss of Arabs' lands. After all, the Arabs were not guilty for the sins of the holocaust so why should they give up land for the Jews?
Thank you for providing our anti-Semitic talking point for the day and fouling this uplifting thread.
Anyway, I am not on the side of the Arabs and I support Israel. I am only giving you another point of view to consider. While some of the land were bought by the Jews from the Arabs, there is no doubt that with the war in 1948, it forced the removal of many Arabs including Christians from Israel proper. Don't blame me, it is just history here we are talking about.
Wow.
“After all, the Arabs were not guilty for the sins of the holocaust so why should they give up land for the Jews?”
I defer to MWT, but I think your point is based on faulty information.
What is disputed land Israel was NOT arab land -— until 1928 when the arabs (from Jordan) sacked Jewish homes and farms and forced them out in an “ethnic cleansing.”
The Jews got it back mid 20th century.
People somehow forget the Jews never left Jerusalem or the surrounding area.
Surely 30 years or so of wrongful possession by the arabs does not give the arabs a right to the land.
Indeed, MOST of the land was SOLD to Jewish people -— cash money between private parties -— the Jordanian government just voiding the sales to Jews as invalid -— beause they were sales to Jews.
And don’t start the B.S. about the mosque being the “3rd holiest site” in Islam. Jerusalem is not even mentioned in the Koran. The “holy site” is just a B.S. lie cooked up circa 1950s by the RUSSIANS to give P.R. cover. Ask any muslim, and they’ll laugh and then admit that they just don’t want the Jews to have the Temple back.
GREATR FIND!
Yes, I read several accounts in ME news sites and it made me feel very good.
The fact that he was so close to Hamas and see it for what it is; and see God for who He really is is just wonderful.
