Why does it seem like a contradiction, that most Israelis speak & understand Arabic, whilst at the same time most Palestinians speak & understand Yiddish. kumar, Yiddish and Hebrew are different languages. Most Israelis don't understand Yiddish, let alone Palestinians, most of whom don't speak Hebrew either.

Why does it seem like a contradiction, that most Israelis speak & understand Arabic, whilst at the same time most Palestinians speak & understand Yiddish. As far as I'm concerned I don't see why both sides can't get along... They should be both be part of one state so anybody can live anywhere they wish and be tolerant of each other differences. But I certainly don't wish to see us foolishly promote the founding of a Palestinian state that merely becomes another intolerant dictatorship. Too many of those kinds of states already.. Hawk
