31. MIke; are you even American?
Daisy ,   USA   (05.24.05)
I'm not Jewish idiot! I guess to you anyone who supports Israel is a Jew. Most polls show that majority of Americans are pro-Israel.
32. "PALESTINIANS" DON'T EXIST!
Daisy ,   USA   (05.24.05)
It's just a myth that Arabs created. You are Arabs who need to go back to your homelands of Syria and Jordan and leave the Jews alone in their homeland.
33. Mike; Jews are the natives of Israel!
Daisy ,   USA   (05.24.05)
The Arabs who call themselves "Palestinians" are native to Arabia and the surrounding Arab countries.
34. Questions for Mike.
Daisy ,   USA   (05.24.05)
When did a nation named Palestine exist? If a "Palestinian" people exist why doesn't a "Palestinian" language, culture exist? Why can't the Arabs who call themselves "Palestinians" prounounce the word correctly and say Falastine instead? I can answer the last question for you. The Romans re-named Israel Palestine and this word has no Arabic orgin! Arabs have no relation to the Philistine people who were already extinct when the Arabs immigrated to Israel. If there are an actual "Palestinian" people why were the Jews the first people to be called "Palestinian?" I'm waiting for you made-up answers Mike!
35. And thehuman rights abuses of Jews who are blown up by Arabs
Daisy ,   USA   (05.24.05)
36. to Arab girl; Your land is in Arabia!

37. Several Comments

To Daisy: There was an election on the matter, and the candidate who most strongly supported Israeli withdrawl won -- George W. Bush. His Road Map was published in April 2003 and he is doing nothing more or less than he said he would. To Linda: Judea and Samaria, and also the Golan, were part of other countries before 1967 (Jordan and Syria). And the 4th Geneva Convention applies to all occupations; there is no exemption for a defensive war. Also, the land East of the Jordan River was not part of Biblical Israel -- check the Tanakh text to read about Moshe Rabbeinu's death and the crossing of the Jordan under Yehoshua. Or, if you choose, look at the maps in the back of the Artscroll Tanakh. And if you actually read the League of Nations Mandate you will find that the boundaries of the "Jewish National Home" are never stated. Please check your facts in the future. To #19: The Christians in Egypt voluntarily surrendered to the Muslims in the 7th century. They were tired of being persecuted by other Christians. Come to think of it, the Jews in Eretz Yisrael were much better treated by the Muslims who conquered the land in the 7th century than they were by the Christians who had ruled there.
