So where's their right to complain?? They should blame their ancestors for selling the family farm.


They get their right to complain from their own inferiority complex and their Western enablers like len. Notice how the subtext of len's and Richnorth's screeds is always that only Westerners (US/Europe/Jews) are ever actually responsible? Arabs and Persians and whatnot are always merely reacting or being cleverly manipulated. They are never independent actors, never responsible for any of their choices. Excuses are always made for them. They are in effect, infantilized.

The current joke of the world is you establish your "pro-Arab" credentials by assuming MORE racist attitudes than any that were prevalent in the British empire.

Hawk,

The amount of land purchased (often twice and at inflated prices) was a small percentage.

Those who sold have no complaint in my opinion.

What percentage of Palestinian Christians voted for Hamas?

I do not know that number.

As far as recreating a Philistine culture, I do not think that is their emphasis. I think their emphasis is having control of land that was a majority of Arabs, Christian and Moslem.
