Fester,

I was going to be flippant in my reply to you but
then I realized that would not be appropirate.

The best I can do is - politely suggest do more
research. Things can be explained and related to
from the universal perspective of justice and
human rights.

We need to clarify some of the deep misunderstandings
at the heart of the Insraeli-Palestinian problem, in
the past and in the present.

As long as these distortions and inherited assumptions
are not questioned, they will continue to provide
an immunity shield for the present inhuman regime in
the land of Palestine.

By examining these assumptions i light of the latest
research, we can see how far they are from historical
truth and why setting the historical record straight
might have an impact on the chance for peace and
reconciliation in Israel and Palestine.

See you on another discussion.

Cheers.

Foxy,
Have you looked up Lebanon before the Palestinians went there ? What is your conclusion ?

Indyvidual,

Have you ever visited Israel?

You should.

And then also visit the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

You may modify your views.

The Palestinians do not recognize the Balfour Declaration, the British Mandate Document, the UN Palestinian Partition Resolution nor any other resolutions and measures that derive from them or are similar to them.

They regard the establishment of Israel entirely illegal.

WhiteMouse,

Not interested in discussing the Balfour Declaration
with you until you've done your research on the subject.
Cheers.

Hi Foxy,

Your belief that an opinion is only a matter of understanding the history is an interesting take on things. Melanie Phillips has a good knowledge of the history, yet her conclusions differ from yours. Why might that be?

For me it is the extreme hatred of Jews that has always been the primary driver of the conflict, like these nurses bragging about how they would treat Israeli patients.
