>The land was GIVEN to Israel. They won more land when THEY were attacked. Israel offered peace, the Palistinians spit on their peace efforts. Hamas doesn't want peace.
Maybe you can tell me why the other Arab countries will NOT let any Palistinians into their countries? Maybe you
need to preach to their Arab brothern.
I don't know what or who you are, but your solution sounds as if you could double for one of those guys.

Well, for the record, I know Frederick and we disagree on ALL views regarding the Middle East problem. And I am so glad he put me on ignore

Fred, you are right about the palestinians -- the only people to actually do non-targetted air strikes aimed at civilians was the Jordanians. They bombed them because they didn't want them in Jordan. Later the Palestinians developed a tax on border Jordanians -- for "protection" -- they are arab persona non grata to the other arabs

The land was given to Isreal, but wasn't it given to them by God? Didn't Moses take the Isrealites out of Egypt to Isreal with His guidance?
I know my bible history is a little rusty, but I seem to be pretty sure that's how it happened. I'm not trying to be "funny", but if people are going to attempt to pick who owns what, shouldn't we go back to the starting point?
The land has changed hands many times over time.
Now we're in the present and the Isrealites have it again.
The thing with the Palestinians yesterday though, was that some, a lot, were dancing on the graves of our fellow Americans.
That kind of pisses me off.

I don't have much sympathy for the Palestinians after watching that.
