In Numbers Chapter 31, Israel "took vengeance for the Lord on Midian." (Num. 31:3) Twelve thousand Israelites went to war with Midian. First, they killed all the males. Forget the Geneva Peace Accord about proper treatment of prisoners. Next they took the women and children captive and brought them along with the rest of the spoils to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation. Now some ministers might be proud of a congregation such as this, but Moses was angry with them. "Have you kept the women alive?" he said. "Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the LORD in the incident of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately." (Num. 31:16-18)

Jeruselem Post was when it was founded in Dec 1st 1932

a good deal Yes I know it's been reported in Israel and the USA a trillion times Israel offered the Palastinians 90% of what they wanted . You might want to try newspapers that are not controlled by pro Israel groups. Aparently Barak insisted Arafat sign a " final agreement" and declare an " end to the conflict" Doing so would have renounced any legal claim to Palastine land. Nothing was put in writing. No documents or maps were presented. Barak wanted Palastinian land divided into four isolated Bantustans surrounded by expanding settlements and other Israel controled territory. No resonsible leader would have agreed to these terms. After Arafat turned down the offer he was blamed for the failure. I'm not saying Arafat was a good leader for his people. But there are a lot of lies told on both sides. You have to really dig for the truth. If you want to believe what you want to believe or need to believe there is a website or news source that will tell you what you whant to hear. there everywhere, not hard to find

As always, Mr. Bechor is right on point! Kudos! As to the murderous, thieving and lying mamzer from Egypt who single-handedly managed to create unending conflict which is lasting to this day...may that misbegotten monstrous creature and his dead/living ilk suffer without end all the torments the human mind can ever conceive. Yemach schemom vezich'rom leolam! That said, Ben-Assi, the forever unwanted poster on Ynet, the unredeemed imbecilic retard from Maryland should join his beloved erstwhile leader ASAP and his deceased/diseased entourage ...the more the merrier!

Just one question to still my inquisitve mind. When was so-called palestine ever a country? Where was it to be found on the world map. What language did they speak? If there was a Palestinian race of people surely you have some answers to some simple questions. You seem to think you know it all!!!

It is so lame, using the old excuse tat israel controls the media. Get with the times.

Howza listing 3 of them, if they're so readily available ?

Still copying an pasting How about Arafat's daughter (LOL) finding out who her father really was, it wasn't Yasser, he preferred the same sex, not the opposite

The Pals. need a more honorable death for Arafat. Actually, he died of AIDS. Unfortunately his comrades in arms were in more than just his arms. So the Arabs concoct a story so they can blame the Jews.

It could very well have been me, it certainly wasn't Arafat, he was a queer as a three dolloar bill
