PLO was founded in 1964, with the goal to destroy Israel, and you are talking about early century with all people back than being dead, unless they were children? You need a shrink...

<<Yes, they supported the PLO's call for a secular democratic state. Obviously, they only did this after the PLO was formed in 1964.

<<<Arabs had no problem with Jews in Jerusalem until the Zionists came along. In fact, the Jews in Jerusalem also hated the Zionists. They have always supported the PLO's call for a secular democratic state.>>>>

What early century has to do with PLO?

Pilgrims throng Mecca's Grand Mosque
Israel denounced in last weekly prayer before hajj begins

MECCA, Saudi Arabia - Up to one million Muslims prayed for the "glory of Islam" in the holy city of Mecca yesterday as Saudi Arabia geared up for the first major Muslim religious gathering since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

A sea of hajj pilgrims thronged the Grand Mosque, Islam's holiest shrine, on the last weekly prayer before the five-day pilgrimage that starts next Wednesday, to hear a sermon by the imam, Sheikh Osama Abdullah Khayyat. Sheikh Khayyat steered clear of politics in his speech but closed it with what have become traditional prayers for the triumph of Islam and defeat of Israel.

"God give your glory to Islam and Muslims," he repeatedly said to which hundreds of thousands of people responded by roaring "Amen" in a single voice.

"Lord ... defeat those tyrant Jews," the preacher added, as he stood by the cube-shaped Kaaba in the heart of the mosque. Muslims around the world turn to Kaaba while praying.
