<<What are you feeling so superior about?>> ... ? as in eh? which roughly translates to 'what are you referring to?' ... is this a device to silence a discussion? <<Have the muslim state preached hatred of Israel since it was founded?>> ... do not know first hand one way or another, but hate generally has a reason, a strong one. My sister in law does not hate my brother, but is a moslem loving a jew, so, what gives? Perhaps because my brother didn't kill my sister-in-law's parents and take her apartment? On the one hand, sprinkling cluster bombs amongst the folks forced to exist in enlarged camps and shrivelled down territories takes hate of the purest kind. OTOH, putting on an explosive jacket and willingly leave ones family forever also takes hate of the purest kind. <<If it was just numbers,Irael would have been long gone. So once again it is the Jews fault for the shape of the middle east?lol>> ... ? eh? again, as in what are you talking about? But since you asked, if anyone is to be blamed, it may be the british. If the zoo keeper puts the tiger in with the lion, and a fight starts, one would hardly blame either beasts. <<You know better, if Israel would disapppear today,how would anything change in the middlede east?>> ... eh? where did this come into the discussion? <<ps your exposing yourself not MQ>> in one sense I do, untainted by blind religion, undisturbed by deaf ignorance, and keeping it all really simple.

It's amusing that TJ blames the British. It's quite funny really. There's a trend around the world to blame the British. Which is silly because it's over half a century since the British last had a significant influence over events. The British Empire had been crumbling long before, being troubled by WWI and really softened up by WWII and put paid to by the British Disease. In fact, for the most part, Jews bought in fair transactions their property in Israel. The Palestinians didn't own the land they lived on and it was sold from under them by their absentee Ottoman landlords. Bad luck. That's the price of being a tenant, even if for generations or even hundreds of years. Same sort of deal in Fiji. I note that China wasn't shy about taking back Hong Kong after the lease was up. Britain brought wealth, legal and political ideas such as freedom, a lingua franca, and a lot more besides, to umpty millions around the world. As you sensibly point out, if Israel and all the Jews disappeared, Arabia would not be improved one whit. On the contrary, like everywhere they went, the local yokels will do a lot worse if they go. That was an interesting article about Europeans ending their prospects by their genocide against Jews and having imported umpty million Moslems instead. The Moslems didn't even need another battle at Tours. They were invited in. Absurd, but that's the arrogance of the Europeans, thinking they could get the cheap workers, and have those new immigrants turn into good little Euroserfs, as cannon fodder at the coal face for the kleptocratic bureaucracies. It was quite a dramatic metaphor for what's happened to have Van Gogh's relative knifed with a message held to his dead body with a knife into him. Enoch Powell saw it coming.

Yes, definitely banned. I tried replying to this post, but can't. I am banned. I wonder what gives. Oh well, that should save me some time.
