Even when you guess, you miss, my dear Gus.
1/ Nothing about Algeria independence war that is not notoriously known. One million Algerian dead, fifty thousand Frenchmen just as dead, torture on a daily basis against Algerian terrorists but also against freedomfighters. And if you cant sense a difference between both words, just forget it.

2/ The parallel you are attempting between French colonization of Algeria and Jews returning to a land they once had is not valid. However you can compare the 1832 French takeover of Algeria to the Belgian in Congo, the Dutch in Indonesia, UK etc. Basically an invasion by master boatbuilders/gunmakers in empty and/or nonorganised lands and/or societies.

3/ The Israeli did not have to wait for you before experiencing doubts about anything and/or excesses done/to be done by elements of the army to Palestinian populations. They adressed them even before you were born.

Now, I do understand that you have your vision to push, and to some extend, I respect that, even if I do not understand why... a point, as it happens you never address, however the volume of your posts. Don't you ever wonder why ?
