> I suggest that you investigate and determine how much and what land Jews had "taken over" when the violence started. A few weeks ago on History Channel there was a very interesting documentary complete with actual b&w footage of the early settlers and their political and military moves. If I get the chance, I'll see if I can find transcripts of. The short version is that neither side were innocent. > Of course, you are supporting violence on the part of another group that wanted to "take it over." What would that be? Given the choice between foreigners murdering locals and locals murdering foreigners, most people will side with the locals. But what I said is that I supported neither; the problem was that the Zionists divided the land into an "us" and "them". Such moves are inherently violent. It would have been better if there was a plan for cooperative existence. As I have pointed out before, such opinions of peaceful coexistence and cooperative nations would have been unlikely considerations after two world wars. So I understand the paranoid and hard-line doctrines of those leaders. But understanding is not the same as approving.
