Suddenly, in a meeting in Europe in 1897, Palestine was to be their home again. No one consulted the current residents. The decision was made unilaterally. I don't know of any people who would happy having a group of people moving in and taking over. Right...which brings us to where we are today, which is that even an event that took place only one hundred short years ago is relevant to the solution of this problem, perhaps with the exception of restitution (money and disputed lands)...since, for the Palestinian's perspective, it should be clear that Israel is not going away despite their suicidal attacks. That's the problem....there is so much bad blood between the two sides, esp. with the Palestinians, there are no more reasonable people left in Palestine and Israel. For nearly a 100 years, the Palestinians fought to keep the Zionists from taking over......but the Palestinians never had a chance. They were poor ranchers and farmers while the Zionists were fueled with money from Europe. It was David and Goliath all over again, but with Goliath winning. And after the Zionists won, they fukked with the Palestinians. So to expect any kind of reasonable resolution to this problem is expecting gold to fall from the sky.
