An addendum.
I have no problem with folks feeling bad for the Pals. But if you really want to search the world for victims there are much clearer cases. Ask the millions of Tutsis who died in Ruanda or the folks currently dying in Darfur. How about the hundreds of thousands, saddam gassed and what of the iranians he used chemicals against. Is Sharon worst than Mugabe? How many folks did Mao kill? What about North Korean victims whose numbers we can only imagine. Or Bosnians? The list goes on. Israel/Pal is a small border war. It may be as Marcos might say the Jews looking for an exclusive state in an area that they once populated and ruled but where others had migrated too later on after the Jews had been expelled. But even when looking for an exclusive state for Jews as a nation, no different that germany or france or belgium, they still managed to include a few million arabs who live better than arabs elsewhere and who would live even better if the two peoples (Arab and Jew) overall could make peace.
