Israel is NOT "the Jews".

I can remember the year that Yasser Arafat finally learned not to rail against "the Jews" - it was 1975.

"We're not anti-semitic." he implored. "We're anti-Zionist." The Europeans and U.S. leftists (who were largely Jewish) were turning in their graves everytime he fumed about the freakin' Jooze, and somehow managed to get through to him that he was losing points with the world population (this was only 1 generation removed from the Holocaust).

Have a look at a kindergarten book from the West Bank and tell me this isn't anti-semitic.

Your maps are quite telling. But what happened to the maps from 1,000 BCE, from Greek occupation days, from Christ's time, from centuries after Christ's time. In fact, these were Jewish lands for two millenia (that's 2,000 years) before Islam imposed itself on the region and the world. Now THERE'S some thugs.

I particularly like your map showing the Israeli-Palestinian boundary after 1967. That was the year that Nasser closed the canal and the Red Sea ports, railed about "throwing the Jews into the Sea", while 5 Arab armies mobilized on Israel's borders.

Yes, the borders were expanded "somewhat" after that. I can almost hear you clenching your teeth: Damn Jews, how dare they defend themselves.

You've got issues, dude.
