"if there was anything worth fighting about, the Israelis would be all over it like bees on honey."

But they are, I doubt though that they will have much success. Can you imagine Israelis having appealed to Saddam Hussien for restitution, that's a laugh. Or how about the Saudis or Iraqis. Besides, many Israelis accept that some sort of restitution will be in order, I doubt there is an iota of that sentiment anywhere in the Arab world for jewish restitution.

"Why bother with Sharon as PM?"

There's been many others beyond Sharon and many U.S. presidents that have vied for peace. The only part of the equation that has never changed is Arafat. Hmmmm, I wonder if that could mean anything. For you, I doubt it.

>Excuse me.......if there was anything worth fighting about, the Israelis would be all over it like bees on honey. Just three years ago they took the Swiss to court to get restitution for Jewish bank accounts that the Swiss confiscated during WW II. Your 'crocodile tears' for the Israelis are a bit much.

Equating anything that Israel has done to the Palestinians to the Holocaust is more than a "bit much".

At worst, the Israelis have engaged in a land grab over the course of the last fifty-odd years. That does not even begin to compare to genocide of six million people.
