Moslems had large land holdings in Spain, especially around Cordoba, that were stolen and continue to be occupied to this day by Christians. Rather than Solana's position of ethnically cleansing Jews from our own homelands of Judea and Samaria, he should offer their stolen Spanish lands back to the Palestinian Moslems. Ethnically cleanse Christians off of land they stole from Moslems and give the the land back to the Palestinian Moslems.

When you see anti-semetic and ignorant remarks as Hani's--its not from "Canada" but mostly from Quebec. They are admitted rascists and rank as the highest rascist (proudly) province in Canada. Even before the Muslim influx into Quebec, it was the French Quebecers proud of their anti-semetisim. Shocking, no? LOL. . Speaking of French and anti-semites--and all of EU Hey, Mr. Solana, have you noticed how the suicide bombers are having tremendous difficulty penetrating that wall you are calling for its halt? Oh yes, that is the point, isn't it? The difficulty the "psudo Pali" dealth cultists are having killing anymore Jews. Why don't you move to Sderot, you rabid anti-semetic?

To Hani and Mr. 26 You guys are pathetic. Do think your Arab brethern would have allowed an Arab Palestine to come into existence if they had won in 1948? LOL There would never be a separate Palestine. The area of Israel would have been carved up like a roast pig between Egypt, Jordan and Syria. It never was or is about Palestine. It always been about the predominance of Islam and getting those kaffir Jews out of there. You know it and everyone should understand it! As far as Jewish land. The Jews didn't steal it! Absentee Arab landowners living in Egypt etc sold it to the Jews at exorbitant prices that the Jews then cultivated. Thanks to Islam there was a feudal society in the 20th century. And do you think those wretched wealthy Arab sold them prime agricultural land?? They sold the Jews malarial swapland and rock-strewn hills which the Jews transformed through their blood , sweat, toil and tears.

and the torture and expulsion of Jews, and the colonization of the Americas, and decades of Franco dictatorship, and that these days opens their doors wide to African and Muslim illegal immigration into Europe, now comes Mr Solana to criticize and advise little, besieged Israel to make further concessions to the Muslims. Who, by the way, are intent on reinstating the Caliphate in his own country. I think he should be worrying about that instead, since he is of absolutely no help to Israel.

Ultimately the Palestinians will not have a state because the settlers on the W. Bank are too great in number to dislodge any longer. The Palestinians' best hope is to develop the beach front on the Gaza into hotels and casinos like the American Indians do on the reservations. There's a lot of money in gaming resorts. Billions!!! Have Rice, Bush. Abbas or Haniyea ever thought of that? At least it would be a start. This may sound ridiculous but worth considering.

Solana is a representative of what is to come from the EU. Let's keep giving the Land of Israel away until there is no more Israel. I just hope and pray that the next time Israel is attacked they don't fight with one hand tied behind their back. You can't afford to lose Isreal. You need to remember who you are "God's Chosen People." The promises made to the Abraham are still valid today. God hasn't changed, He still loves Israel. He will never allow the Muslims to destroy you. There may be some hard times ahead, but He will never leave you or forsake you.

He makes the eU look like a bunch of idiots. Is he their Foreign Minister for life?

He is shocked by Jews wanting to live in Jerusalem because he does not see any Jewish claim to Jerusalem as legitimate. Probably he would concede Jews continuing to live in other ""occupied" places like Tel Aviv, Haifa and Beer Sheba despite that all these places are built on land that was Arab until 1948 as long as we let the refugees return.

If the state of Israel is such a good idea why have only a handfull of American Jews imigrated there? 150,000 I hear; only enough for a small town.

Did he have anything to say about the citizens living under constant fire from Gaza?

On the one hand, Solana and the Spanish political elite always express their shame and regret that Spain expelled the Jews. It was wrong to make Spain judenrein, they now say. But Solana and his compatriots advocate expelling Jews from Judea and Samaria/ the West Bank and making it judenrein. Can't these anti-Semites be consistent?

More and more American,Canadian and British Jews are making aliyah. I suggest that you check out the N'fesh B'Nefesh website. Why do you base your arguement about Israel's importance on the number of American Jews that make aliyah. Do the millions of other Jews that have made aliyah,often from countries in which they were persecuted in, not matter to you? Stick to your hatred of Bush(you are from Oregon) and leave Israel alone.

How it bacame yours ... did you buy it ... got it as Christmas present .... or did you stolen it ???

That antisemitism in the world today is the effect of a minority of Zionists in Israel who insist on building settlements. When people are "anti-semitic" what they are really saying is that they are opposed to the continuing development of settlements. The rest of the Jews in the world get tarred with the same stick.

#43 actually, you are correct. the jewish settlers who came there bought a lot of land from absent arab landlords that didn't live there. they lived in syria or egypt or jordan. these arab land lords were very very happy to sell a lot of this barren land which was non profitable to them for extremely high prices to the jewish settlers at gthat time. all land that the jewish settlers settled on was LEGALLY PURCHASED by jewish settlers FROM ABSENT ARAB LANDWONERS! this is a historical fact ansd very well doccumented. i am surprised you had no clue as to this information. after the jews settled on these legally purchased lands, they began to drain them, saw hope in working the land, drained the swamps from malaria and started to plow the land and work it for farming purposes. they created irrigation systems, built schools, had monetary coins, built a small governmental co-op and an agricultural system on these lands. these lands were not STOLEN. THEY WERE BOUGHT!!!! arab nomads from all over came to settle around these jewish farms and sought the benefit of work, jobs, health care, etc.... from the jewish settlers. then, they lived peacefully with one another. lots of other aliyot and jewish migrations followed into the land, settled it and made it prosperous. something all arabs there could never do because the land was barren according to them and only a few nomadic sheep farmers ever trasversed it. it was unsettled land. unsettled. it is historically doccumented that you could travel there for days and not see a soul before the jews made it productive with their hands, soul, self determination, death and sickness. but they prevailed despite it all and the arab nomads there lived in peace near those settlements. everything changed later when arab nations, being antisemetic realized that more and more jews are migrating there to avoid european and arab persecutions. and this got their hackles up. they didn't want a big jewish presence there and started to harass the settlers. the rest, you know! or at least i hope you know the real truth of what happened and where the word palestine and palestinians came from....from after the 1967 war when we captured gaza and west bank. palestine and palestinians were terms born out of the conclusion of that war. #44 please do not make yourself look rediculous and un informed. anti semitism is older than israel, palestinians, arabs, etc.... it has started way before vthe settlements, prior to zionism, prior to hitler, prior to pan arabism, etc... it's simply hate. hate for anything that is jewish as a religion, ethnic origin, way of life, belief systems, values, etc... it is a feeling and practice targeting a specific people, not because they build settlements, but simply because THEY EXIST. exist, we will and no one, john, can destroy our beautiful religion, our people, way of life and the very very generous gifts we jews have given to society and the world at large. as a people, yes, we are enviable because unlike the muslims, we would rather build than destroy, rather progress than regress and rather live and continue to excell and contribute than die and vanish.

it's realy boring this brocken disc of the anti-simitism ... why don't you find your self another excuse to cover your mistakes ... this one became very old and not axeptable anymore ... and almost nobody listen to it anymore ... you say it and only you listen to it .

I wish every that everyone who wanted to post a note on this site had to read the comments from #46 before being allowed to do so. The Jewish people have brought more blessings to the world than any other people in history. The 10 commandments, the Old Testament, the Law and the Prophets and finally, The Jewish Messiah. I would not want to be here when the Muslim messiah arrives. He will be no messiah at all. He will bring nothing but death and destruction.
