Nadine, are you seriously trying to convince anybody that zionist behaviour has had nothing to do with palestinians becoming and remaining refugees, that bulldozing their homes and destroying their olive trees and blocking them from access (using weaponry paid for by US taxpayers, in the main) should have no effect on their lives? Hello? Anybody home?

... just copying your style there Nadine, no offense ... gee this thread is repetitive - aren't you getting deja vu shivers about now? .... ooo, you're not going to like this, but it is the obligatory Godwin's move that seems appropriate to the moment, not least because it just tripped across my screen -

'Late in 1940, the Lehi representative Naftali Lubenchik was sent to Beirut where he met the German official Werner Otto von Hentig and delivered a letter from Lehi offering to "actively take part in the war on Germany's side" in return for German support for "the establishment of the historic Jewish state on a national and totalitarian basis, bound by a treaty with the German Reich". Von Hentig forwarded the letter to the German embassy in Ankara, but there is no record of any official response. Lehi tried to establish contact with the Germans again in December 1941, also apparently without success.'

en.wikipedia.org

'Lehi' is more commonly known as the Stern gang, one of the products of Jabotinsky's disciples .... so where should palestinians be sent, Nadine? ... the danes haven't invited them to their country, nor the indonesians to theirs .... probably too late now for the Uganda plan, sensibilities have changed ... how about, the palestinians stay right where they belong, in Palestine, where they and all other inhabitants are strongly encouraged to share, and to get along, or else.

Hi Nadine,
I am reading last nights debate between you and Marcos. I always thought that he was a smart guy with a different view and a witty way of expressing himself. Any guy who doesnt know the answer to your question on why the Pal refugees remain in camps today and are stateless cannot be afforded the respect I once gave him. Please tell him that the bulldozed homes since 1967 have nothing to do with the original Palestinian refugees now living in neighboring countries. All the other refugees you mention have largely been resettled. The answer to your question is obvious as is the childish tone of both Marcos and GSTs responses. mike
