At the outset, before the formation of Israel there was peaceful coexistence between Jews and Palestinians. It was only after the Zionists began to impose their will and expel Palestinians from their dwellings and their homesteads by force that trouble began to escalate overtime to present levels. Recall that Zionists in the early days resorted to terrorism to achieve their ends. Remember the Irgun and the Hagganah terrorists, and that Menachem Begin and Ishak Shamir (former Prime Ministers of Israel) were terrorist leaders? Do a google on them and learn more.
So, if the Zionists were not inordinately greedy and hell-bent on the elimination/destruction of the Palestinians at the outset while in pursuit of their longe range plans for the creation of a Greater Israel (Eretz Israel), they would have been kinder and gentler and helpful to the less endowed Palestinians, and the result would have been far far different today.
It was sheer greed, hubris and utter contempt for Palestinians and the presumption that they could be eliminated with impunity that is the cause of all the armed conflicts we see today. Yasser Arafat exploited this circumstance extremely well.
Simple human relationships tell you this: if someone is nice to you and show you respect, you tend to reciprocate in kind. So, don't put the blame on the Palestinians: the Zionist Jews at the get-go have been behaving like the Nazis hell-bent on eliminating the "vermin" Jews. What irony! The Zionist Jews have morphed into modern day Nazis!!!
If you realise that the envisioned bounds of Eretz Israel include lands on both sides of the Litani River in Lebanon and lands as far as the Euphrates River in Iraq, you will begin to see that the Zionists care only for themselves, and the recent conflicts since March 2003 apparently show that the Zionists have been in active pursuit of their long range plans.
To be sure, the Zionist Jews (descendants of the Christ killers some 2000 years ago) do not believe in, nor do they practise, Christ's dictum, "Love thy enemies as you love thyself."
Your logic betrays you to be a Zionist Jew. Right? . |
