How Big is Israel and How Much Land Do the Moslems Want?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

First, lets get things into porportion. The little yellow part there on this map is Israel. The shaded brown sections are Arab countries.  The other day I heard that the Moslems are the underdog in the region. You gotta be kidding.

What has Israel given back already? Israel gave the Sanai back to Egypt at the Camp David accords. The Sanai is the large tan colored area on the map below. You can see it was well over half of the entire country of Israel.

Now they are asking Israel to give up more. The Moslems now want the West Bank and Gaza. (They are the brown areas I framed below) This is nearly half of what the Jews had left after what they gave to Egypt

If Israel gave the West Bank and Gaza to the Muslims do you see how easy it would be for the Muslims to cut the country in two parts seperating northern Israel from the people in the south of Israel?

What do you mean they want even more? Yes, that's right they also want the Golan Heights. It's the area framed in red

Now lets block out what the Moslems have taken from Israel and what they are now asking for so we can see how much that is exactly

So there ya have it. Now you understand the problem. It's not as complicated as they say it is really. Would it be hard if this was a problem in the U.S.A.? What would that look like?

The Moslems have more tanks, aircraft, and more armed forces then Israel. Look at these stats below. Who's the underdog again?

Nicely done.

1. Smaller than New Jersey.

2. All of it.

Sorry, I got lost at "shaded brown sections are Arab countries".
More, or less depending on the individuals involved, but Arab in informal culture. Not in political definition of "country".

Having spent time in that part of the world, logic (any style) rarely applies.
Yeah, got the tee shirt too.

I would give the terrorists all the land they want,as long as 6' of it is on top of them.

What?,to harsh?

[dennisw]

Your use of the words legal and illegal are laughable as you try to give weight to your argument. ..... As if you have a clue. As if Islamics give a crap about rule of law unless it's Sharia.

Enjoyed the maps along with the text. Thanks.

to have ANY land in PALESTINE

Where is that located on the map?

Is it anywhere close to OZ?

Good Idea . First , the Jews have absolutely no right , under ANY International law

First off welcome to FR newbee (member since April 30, 2002).

Second, at FR we use logic and fact in our discussions, not Pali propaganda. Go back to DU, and go at it there...

Good map, though I thought Israel had an estimated 400 nukes.

[AzJP]

At the risk of tossing another match onto the propellant, those excellently illustrated force measurements are real nice charts.

However, that part of the world is traditionally circumspect with those numbers. That's a nice way (I hope) of saying it ain't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

Or, Israeli fighter pilots are probably worth four to one against Syrian fighter pilots...training and support and all.

If I had to be in that part of the world, I'd rather be in the backseat of a Israeli fighter than Syrian, or Egyptian.
Ideally, I'll never go back.

[dennisw]

Right.... Those are s***hole Muslim nations but not necessarily s***hole Arab nations. THANKS!! :)

[AmericaUnited]

Let's see... which of the current Jew-haters on Fr you could be newbie?

[dennisw]

So now you like Israel? What a surprise!

Nearby. It's on Koosbane, the Muppet Planet.

[AzJP]

Muslim country?
No such thing.
Preponderance of occupants "claiming" to follow one of many flavors of Islam, but ya' won't find a Muslim national flag, currency, etc.
And just like over here, folks who say they are of a religion might be found elsewhere at the traditional church/prayer time. Part time devotees.

Thanks so much for doing this! It is soooo obvious that the propaganda is all on the side of the Arabs! How much land do the Moslems want? That's easy, ALL OF IT!
