What are the historical claims to a palestinian state. Thanks.
92. Reversal of Causality - to 84
Shai ,   Israel   (08.29.06)
10,000 sins by Palestinians are erased because you can assuage yourself that the few you know about, committed by Israelis and about which you've concealed important facts that provide context, are the "real face" of Israel, and the 10,000 by Palestinians are an anomaly. Somehow, the context of "what do you expect them to do when" is a right that you think only Palestinians have. Well, again - you miss the important difference between the two sides. "Resistence" is not appropriate when peace negotiations are an option. They were not an option for either side until Oslo. But since then, the Palestinians have on one hand held a gun, and the other an olive branch - these are words that paraphrase Arafat's own in his first speech to the UN. What you are missing is that this reduces all peace moves made by Arabs to a tactical level rather than a strategic one, undermines Israel's faith that concessions yielded in favor of the Palestinians will result in peace rather than a better position for the Palistinians to attack, and it undermines as well those who are interested in peace amongst the Arabs because they know that the political moves are merely a means to the end of being able to undermine the Jewish state. Again, what you continue to miss is that the Palestiinians are not the only ones who suffer in the world - nobody amongst the Jews blew themselves up in German restaurants, nor have they plowed airliners into buildings. The problem with your view, and that of Arabs generally, is their inability to understand that the ends to not justify all means, that they have had other options to reach settlement that they have ignored and undermined, and that it is impossible to have a "just" settlement that is such for both sides and therefore that Arabs also must compromise even more than they think they have already. The alternative is not going to be the destruction of Israel, Faisal, but that of the Palestinians - if that is really of interest to you. The evidence of this is in Gaza.
93. To 83
Shai ,   Israel   (08.29.06)
The Promised Land is defined in the Torah - read it. Heck, wikipedia it if you don't have time. It's not like this stuff is hard to find. It was the lands that were conquered by the Jews when they entered with Joshua, and later under wars with surrounding Kingdoms, and that actually is a cumalitively defined border. That said, there are no Jews who seriously propose gaining the entirety of it until the Messiah comes. For now, if what really interests you is what we're entitled to as G-d's promise, allow us to live in the parts we are in in peace. As far as the UN resolutions, the only ones that have legal weight are those that are passed by the Security Council. The rest are beauty contests, the equivalent of CNN polls, of all the countries in the General Council, many of whom have no interest at all in applying the same morals they apply to this conflict to their own. Of all the UNSCR's passed that relate to Israel, there is not a single one that does not also have obligations that the Arab nations surrounding Israel must also meet. That they did not meet their obligations to cease belligerency has caused Israel's inability to completely comply with its end. These are facts, too, Faisal. Read the text of the UNSCR's and you'll see. And yes, unlike Palestinians we don't pass out candies when civilians die. I think that the onus that Israelis kill civilians purposefully and that Palestinians are snow white innocents is on you to prove. For somebody who is so enamored with facts, you're a bit selective in your choices.
94. #3 Franklin was never US president...you idiot
Pat ,   USA   (08.29.06)
If you're going to attribute a statement to a person, you should at least understand some of the most basic facts about who that person was or is. Idiot=moron=dumb ass

96. No. 70, Fadi
NYC Girl   (08.29.06)
First of all, Israel gets about HALF that amount every year. Get your facts straight for once. And if the money is the only reason why Israel is so advanced, why hasn't all that American money helped Egypt accomplish the same thing?
97. Remember how we used to play counting games..
Pat ,   USA   (08.29.06)

98. faisal....israel belongs to jewish people.
maria ,   philippines   (08.30.06)
you're brainwashed by islam religion. the good source of information is the "Holy Bible". don't you know that Jesus was a jew? this is the everlasting covenant by the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob: Genesis 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto htee, and to thy seed after thee. Genesis 17:19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed:and thou shat call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. Genesis 17:20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. Genesis 17:21 By my ocvenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.God said to Isaac, Genesis 26: 3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give thee all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father.Isaac blessed Jacob(God changed his name to Israel) Genesis 27:29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren , and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee. ........this is about Ishmael......Genesis 16:12 And he will be a WILD MAN(OR WILD ASS); his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. these hijackers you mentioned they're probably from israel , but they're jews. they might be arab-palestinians. palestinians are manufactured people...a people with no history and no authenticity...whose sole purpose for existence is to destroy the jewish state. israel first became a nation in 1312 bce two thousand years before the rise of islam.

100. Persia (Iran) was the defender of Jews
Alireza ,   Iran, Persia   (01.18.07)
According to history, Persia (now Iran) was the defender and supporter of the Jews during Cyrus the great era, king of persia, Most of Iranian do not agree with Mr. Ahmadinjad's opinion. He is out of mind. We Iranians respect to jews and holocaust reality. and wish peace and friendship for all people of the world. We iranian are ashamed of Ahmadinejad's behaviour.
