What kind of question is that ! What qualifies anyone other than the people involved to answer it ?

Amein, thanks for your response. The question was in response to your statement that "The land has been, and is still being annexed and stolen by the Jews from the rightful owners for more than 2000 years." (http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=17643161).

Your statement implied that the Palestinians were the rightful owners of "the land".....and I am not sure if your statement meant the occupied territories, Israel, both, or some combination of parts of both. I don't know the history that well of who occupied the land when, other than having read claims by both sides that all of the land was once theirs at some point in history.

So my question -- should the land that is Israel and the occupied territories be divided between the two claimants in some way or simply given in its entirety to Palestine -- is a legitimate one to ask of anyone who (as you have done) is expressing opinions about the dispute.

I am still interested in your answer (I'll reprint the question below), though I guess you are saying that you don't want to answer it.

The question again: "Amein, is it your belief that the solution to the Israel/Palestine dispute is for Israel to cease to exist since they "annexed" and "stole" (your words) the land? Or do you believe that, given the facts and history of the situation, the solution is for Israel and Palestine to divide the land in some way?"

Thanks in advance for your response.
