    Someone should remind you that Israel was around in pre biblical times. I have no dog in this fight but trying to claim that an Arabic people were there first is rich. The problem Israel has is that it is a point between many world powers and is constantly being taken over and ruled by them as their power ebbs and flows. It just happens at this point in time Israel, now reestablished, can defend itself. (I don’t condone either sides actions)

    Now, I feel dirty defending Jarod.

      Do you realise how pathetic your argument sounds?

      You know America doesn’t belong to the Americans but to the indigenous people, right, same with south America, Australia, etc.

      According to your logic, let’s kick out all the colonizers and return those land to their indigenous people.

      Plus my argument was that the state of Israel has been created via organised terrorist actions not too long ago.

      We are where we are because of decades of failed policies in this region. If the Oslo accord hasn’t failed, we wouldn’t be here.
