"...because only very few are sorry about you;very few are sorry you are wasting your young years fighting;very few are sorry that Israel is the ONLY land we have and we need this land;very few are sorry for the plight our people has suffered through the times. " I saw a ridiculously one-sided documentary made by an Israeli lefty of course called "Machsomim" or "Checkpoint." Anyway, in this documentary there is this British (of course) priest or missionary or what have you who accompanied some Palestinian children across a checkpoint. Anyway this Brit (maybe Ellen's husband) was saying that he felt sorry for the Palestinians and the soldier responded by "why don't you feel sorry for me, that I have to be here?" That obviously stayed with me. I think it sums up the situation. Liberals (for whatever reason be it they feel guilty for being white, are just naive or are deep down anti-Semetic) just never get it.

Interesting, Joel: The UK is not my country (and I do not come from the Middle East). I fully agree with you that imperial Britain is nothing to boast about: especially regarding 'Mandate Palestine' created by Balfour/Weizmann in order to colonize it with Zionists. Ay (23), I wonder why Jews were 'kicked out' of Arab countries! They became rather unpopular after the 1948 ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, and, importantly, they had to go and populate 'Israel' with good stock, in order to replace those 'backward Arabs'! When will you all understand that the indigenous Palestinians are the descendants of all those who passed through Palestine and had minded their own business for centuries until the 'Chosen People' - oh so clever and civilized - decided to 'return' to 'make the desert bloom'. Where did Herr Hitler get his ideas? Anyone with a conscience?

It has always served as a rear for the "Harder" terrorist groups (Hamas, Jihad, PLF etc) providing ammunition, money, weapons and men, and in many times directly collided with IDF and carried out suicide bombings and attacks against Israeli civilians (war crime), if armed Palestinian policemen tried to cross the border from Gaza to Israel it was not to go tanning on Tel-Aviv's beach...

"We are in our OWN COUNTRY" etc etc ad nauseum. Your post is signed Canada - so just what country are to talking about? PS Why so full of hatred?

Well, CJLC (Cartman Just Loves Candy), Herr Hitler got his ideas from Hajj Amin Al Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and uncle of Generalissimo Arafat.

You seem to have this need to make all of us who are reading you think you are of a heavyly educated person. If thats the case your middle east history is wrong, and nor do i think your have the level of education of the first grade. But just to educate you just a bitt. ethnic cleansing of palestinians?? what are you talking about, what school did you go to?? are your parents apes still leaving on some tree?? if so time to jump off get with the program. Never mind stay there your just not worth the efort, enjoy your tree.

I have got news for you: PALESTINE NEVER EXISTED! Also I noticed that when Arabs reply, they never write their full name, never mind the city or country. The same goes for Arab supporters...except for that character, Ellen, but she already has a death wish in wanting to become part of the 72 virgins that her loving savages are more than happy to attack.

Problem is that one Ze'ev Jabotinsky (along with many of his sort) was around long before Herr Hitler. He wrote in 1923: "Every indigenous people will resist alien settlers as long as they see any hope of ridding themselves of the danger of foreign settlement. This is how the Arabs will behave and go on behaving so long as they possess a gleam of hope that they can prevent 'Palestine' from becoming the Land of Israel." (Notice that 'Palestine' is mentioned by a Zionist!). People left with no hope will defend their native land in every way possible. Remember that the British and the Zionists were BOTH repressing the Palestinians and were therefore their enemies. I am told that "Palestine never existed", but many, many thousands HUMAN BEINGS lived there, when the "Chosen People" decided to "return" where their distant "ancestors" had a kingdom...three thousand years ago. Who destroyed what in 1948? Read honest history books!
