I'm not too up on the Zionist movement of the late 1800's. But it seems to me that there are (obviously) religious basics going on here. Whether you (or anyone) is religious or not, in the Bible, the Lord God gave to His people a certain amount of land. Moses led them to it. This is the land that they believe is rightfully theirs (the Israelites). However, the Arabs (Palestinians) do not ascribe to that book. Therefore, to them it's a matter of having their land taken away. To the Israelis, it's a matter of occupying the land the Lord gave them.

From this can emerge a great bibical discussion, but I do not want to be the one to lead it (maybe this was addressed in one of those "Neverending" threads). I just think that it should be factored in when discussing the origins of this fighting.

The Bible doesn’t specify the exact boundaries or house-lot numbers. The Zionists were free to buy the land to build their houses on. The Bible DOESN’T say, “Zionists can steal any land they claim for their own.”. In the late 1940s many Palestinians were thrown off their own land that they had old family deeds for, going back hundreds of years.

People shouldn’t use distorted interpretations of the Bible as an excuse to steal people’s land.

I think you need to study up on it in a hurry, so you’ll know what started WW III.

To the Israelis, it's a matter of occupying the land the Lord gave them.

Many Israelis are atheists. You need to study the history of the modern country of Israel. Just because the Zionists call it “Israel”, that doesn’t mean it is the “Israel” of the Bible. People can’t just go in and steal land and kill the owners and then claim, “That’s what God wanted me to do.”

Many Zionists who post here are not loyal to the United States. They are loyal only to the modern country of Israel. They infiltrate conservative groups only to promote their own propaganda and racist agenda.

You might notice that they are not concerned about the 6,000 dead in New York. They are using this crisis in the US to promote their own agenda. We are being attacked on two fronts right now, psychically by radical racist Arabs, and psychologically by radical racist Zionists. I think it would help us to think of America first right now, and work on supporting our own agendas for our own national interests.

This situation is no different from militant blacks in the US who support Africa over the United States and militant Mexicans in the US who support Mexico over the US, except that currently the Israeli Zionists are the best propagandists in the world.
