RE: "Jews and Moslems historiclly got along better than jews and christian, no?"

Not saying much. What popped into my mind was that Jews possibly got along better with the Black Plague in Europe than they did with Christians.

"Got along" never meant treated as equals.

You get along because you are American. America is founded on the idea that the Constitution transcends the precepts of any religion. No religion may be "established" above any other and everyone may "freely exercise" their right to believe in any religion. In most of the world the "establishment" of a particular religion is a given. There is no constitutional law above the religion which protects individual rights, and there are many willing to interpret "gods will".

RE: "...you are talking eviction".

No I am talking migration. There is not enough land in Israel and the territories to provide both security for Israel and a viable state for the Palestinians. Since there are many Arab states in the Middle East, security means survival for Israel, and the Arabs have attacked Israel continuously in some form since before it even existed, there are only 2 choices, Palestinians accept far less than Barak offered and live peacefully or they leave.
