>I often find myself arguing on the side of the Palestinians on this thread, but in reality, I don't want Israel gone nor do I want the Jews to become extinct. So I think it does matter.....and I bet it matters to you as well.

Not that much, honestly.

>Tell me again what led to the great Diaspora where the Jews fled what is now Palestine. That is the substance behind this mess. Had it not happened, we probably would not be having this conversation today.

I'm oversimplifying this, but the Jews/Israelites were kicked out a few times, by the Assyrians, the Babylonians, and then finally the Romans after the Jews revolted against Roman rule. In each case, some returned later on, and in all cases, they did maintain a desire to go back.
