Both David Singer and Emperor Julian are guilty of objectifying and reducing the Israeli people to "Jews".

Whatever the political circumstances in the early 20th century, nearly all the citizens of Israel, of all religions, were born thereafter and the rest were still children at the time.

Jews were historically considered as weak punching bags, but Israelis are none like it - Israel is their home and only home, they are independent and very good at defending themselves.

Let the aspirations of neither foreign Jews who live outside Israel, nor so-called "Palestinians" be taken seriously: Israel is there to stay and will emerge free of both.

But should the Jews and "Palestinians" wish to fight their anachronistic wars, then there's the West Bank: let Israel withdraw and allow them to fight each other there to their heart content!

The day Israel comes up against a trained, armed, opposition, Israel is toast.

Cannot come soon enough!

//You have clearly been taken in by swallowing easily proven false Arab and UN propaganda.//

//Your use of pejorative terms such as "de facto colonisation" is the product of Arab propaganda//

Wow, you've really go it in for Arabs don't you?

Just so all we're all clear, when you talk about Arabs you're talking about guys like Xavier in the following video, right?

Thanks for showing your true colours in wanting to see the destruction of the State of Israel. If this is how you see the Arab-Jewish conflict being resolved any further dialogue between us is pointless.

Thanks for the posting the last three minutes of a 12 minute video accompanied by this comment:
"Just so all we're all clear, when you talk about Arabs you're talking about guys like Xavier in the following video, right?"

My answer: "Right".

I have answered your question - now my question for you to answer:

Why did you fail to disclose that our telegenic, propaganda-spewing Xavier is an official in the Palestine Liberation Organisation - that charming organisation that still declares in its Charter:
1. " Palestine is the homeland of the Arab Palestinian people; it is an indivisible part of the Arab homeland, and the Palestinian people are an integral part of the Arab nation."

2. "The Balfour Declaration, the Mandate for Palestine, and everything that has been based upon them, are deemed null and void. Claims of historical or religious ties of Jews with Palestine are incompatible with the facts of history and the true conception of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being a religion, is not an independent nationality. Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with an identity of its own; they are citizens of the states to which they belong."

3. "The Arab Palestinian people, expressing themselves by the armed Palestinian revolution, reject all solutions which are substitutes for the total liberation of Palestine and reject all proposals aiming at the liquidation of the Palestinian problem, or its internationalization."

Answer my question please - why did you fail to tell us Xavier is an official in the PLO?

//why did you fail to tell us Xavier is an official in the PLO?//

Um... because it's explicitly stated in the video I linked to? Seems rather redundant, doesn't it?

Not good enough Toni. This is the stuff Arab propaganda is all about - - and you know it.

You deliberately failed to mention Xavier was a PLO official in your comment - creating the false impression he was some kind of Mr Nice Guy.

Dissembling in this fashion is both dishonest and appalling.

No one can stop the PLO propagandising all it wants to and no one can stop you being a willing tool in spreading their declared Jew-hatred as expressed in the PLO Charter.

Just be honest about it and acknowledege that you support Xavier in seeking the destruction of the State of Israel and that you are prepared to spread false information and propaganda to see this happen.

That being your declared solution to the Arab-Jewish conflict - there is nothing further to discuss.

Wallow in your Jew-hatred.
