Your "Palestine Facts" website is Zionist propaganda. If you want to use Wikipedia or some neutral website, okay, but using that one doesn't seem fair or objective.

I'm not sure why you find it so amazing that Arabs fought back as Zionists encroached in the 1920's. My point has always been that the Zionists should not have been there provoking the situation, and that it is they who started terrorist organizations. You would expect anyone to defend themselves against their culture being taken over. They had no real right to be there. The plight of the Zionists and the Arabs in Palestine during this period is not morally equivalent.

When you say you deplore the handful of terrorists actions the Israelis have performed over the decades, that pretty much tells me you are in some sort of denial, or that our positions are too far apart to make this debate interesting or purposeful. I am too tired tonight to make a complete list, but certainly the bombing of the King David Hotel and all the massacres in the refugee camps are in themselves more than a handful. Then you have the thousands of incidents of human rights violations the Israelis have committed against the Palestinians on an ongoing basis.

I think what happened to the Native Americans is deplorable, but it is finished. The entire world's safety and security do not rest upon it. The problems in Israel may well take down the entire planet. They are ongoing. At the same time, there are many safe places where all the Israelis could go and live, so that the Arabs could return to the homes that were confiscated by the Zionists in Palestine.
