"Why is it that you start the history between the Israelis and Palestinians at the point when Palestinians suicide bomb?"

I actually start it at the 1967 wars. I believe Israel has a right to exist, and this is when the arabs made a serious effort to overturn that right. That is when the rules change imo.

This is 2004. No nation is disputing Israel's right to exist. And if they were, Israel has more than enough firepower to take then out.......thanks, in part, to us.

However, Israel is disputing Palestine's right to exist.

That's where the Hamas are smart......."

A common tactic of terrorists is to take advantage of the poor and helpless. Call it smart if you want, but I look at it more like evil. It's time for the Palestinian PEOPLE to get smart and REJECT groups like Hamas. Too bad their aren't more educated arab leaders that will give that message. That alone would go the furthest towards middle east peace. But there are too many like you who justify the actions of the murderers.

Palestinians turned to Hamas because playing it smart or right was getting them no where. If you insist on seeing this from one perspective, you will never see the grievances on the other side. Maybe you don't want to.......maybe you have a vested interest in the status quo.

"Why did Israel start building settlements in the WB and Gaza as early as the early 80s?"

See comments on 1967 (and 1973 for that matter) wars. The rules changed then. Why do you ignore that?

So you're saying that because Israel got attacked by Syria or Egypt in 1967, that justifies them building new towns on land that was supposed to be for Palestinians. That makes no sense.
