...if people want to have creature comforts in this life they will, more often than not, have to work very hard and even do evil things now and then. You seem to be saying that it is OK to commit a crime now and then, as long as you work hard at it, and get the results you want. I categorically reject any idea that mandates ANY form of evil doing as a prerequisite for success. God is great, and He will see to it that good is more powerful than evil, just as He has always done. IC

My friend, this just so you'll know that I "call'em as I see'em". The Palestinian people have been struggling for 50 years.

This persecution, and their subsequent survival, has provided a great deal of evidence to support their claim as a “chosen” people. Just because Jews have suffered persecution for eons, that does not give them the right to persecute the Palestinian people. The line between self-defense and persecution is a fine one, and it is one that Jews should know better than anyone else. Yet it appears to be a line that is frequently crossed. That the Palestinians are stoically suffering persecution at the hands of the persecuted, is additional evidence to my mind, that they too are a “chosen” people. Considering this fact, they must be allowed to be guardians to their fair share of the Holy Land as soon as everyone can live in safety. IC
