Let's get one thing straight. In 1967 the Arab nations got together with Palestine & started a War with Israel. The Arab Nations & Palestine got their A$es kicked & lost the War. Therefore they rightfully won any gains they made in land. Then, a few years Palestine & Egypt had another go, started another War & still got their a$es kicked. Israel could have easily occupied Egypt.

Now out of the generosity they gave Egypt back & allowed the Palestinians to stay in Israel.

How do the Palestinians pay back the Israelis' back, by showering them with rockets, mortars, car bombs & kidnappings. Palestinians should be grateful they are allowed to stay anywhere in Israel.

So lady back in ya box.

Would it be better to live in the proposed Caliphate?

This cry from the heart of a young mother living under occupation has to resonate with all but the most churlish.
The world is still being held to ransom for the crime of the Holocaust. But the Nazis were responsible for the Holocaust. The Palestinians had nothing to do with it, although they are being asked to pay that ransom.
On the other hand, Israel is responsible for the crime of the Nakba. And they compound that crime every day with their ongoing occupation of East Jerusalem.`
This article concludes with a question: "Hasn't Israel acted with impunity long enough?"
And the answer is clearly yes!

As we are seeing in Iraq, when Muslims win territory, they have a tendency to eliminate all opposition, usually by beheading.

Perhaps it is a pity the Israelis did not reply in kind.

Does anyone really believe there would be a single Jew in Israel if the Arabs had won any of those wars?

What part of my post didn't you understand. Also read Hasbeens post again.

Even the Muslims would be leaving in droves for the West again.

Mind you, the West sould stay out of their Wars, send anyone who wanted to go & fight (non-return, of course) there for free. They could then enjoy what they like doing best, (killing one another) until the last man standing. The West & Russia could supply just as much Arms to them as they need to complete the job.

Churlish article indeed! Jayb may have a good approach to be adopted by the 'west' . As for the UN, a quick look at the 'human rights' mob there will give you an idea of any value to be praced on thir prognostications vis a vis the Middle East.
