31. Utopian state!
~~Lengualima~~ ,   I   (01.14.11)
Utopian state! Can be recognized by the nearly 200 nations that make up the globe. That will not create a state called Palestine. 1. Palestinian leaders do not want to create a state, their only goal is to continue to delegitimize Israel. 2. Palestinian leaders do not care bit to get Judea and Samaria, their only ambition is all Israel. 3. Do as the Nazis, lie, lie, change history, show the world that the Arabs have more 4000 years in the Holy Land 4. To build a state that needs more recognition from the world.

Some out of the way country nobody has ever heard of recognises a state that the arabs themselves admit they don't have. Argentina, Brazil, Chili, Guyana These are serious countries with alot of power and influence in global politics right? When the US & EU recognise a non existent state which is created unilaterally without any input from Israel through negotiations then we have to start thinking. As long as its this bunch of nobody countries which have no influence in global politics and are just looking for abit of prestige by involving themselves in this conflict who cares.

I meant the time when their cult was born, but the stone age isn't much far away from the latter, I agree with you.
36. Where is Israel?
Jerry ,   Spain   (01.14.11)
". has anybody ever heard of Guyana before? zionist forever" How Ironic? I learned of the CREATION a state called Israel in 1947. The only other thing I hear about Israel is it disrespect for human beings that are not Jews or pro-Jews. By the way, the bible or any other hocus-pocus book is not international law. Get with the times. In these times, every nation is counted as equal. Military prowess is sometimes noticed but is generally viewed as the "animal instinct" still dwelling in some of us.

Are you jealous about Israel? Yes look at your history how you have treated the Jews,forcing them to convert or to be dropped in hot oil. Ofcourse you will only hear bad things about Israel, because of your hatred of the Jews.Israel will always be JEWISH and we do not want your approval. your hocus-pocus just wait when Islam will take your country,and all the spanish will be under SHARIA LAW.

To @ 29, Sebastian "The Palestinians have been living there for so many centuries, and this country is their native homeland," Study some history. Almost 1,400 BC, Estela Mernetaph: "Israel has been destroyed and erased his seed. " It is in the Cairo Museum. "No civilized state human or dog person Abstain from Recognizing an independent Palestinian state." To which people, and the mean civilized states, which will suppress all rights to women, who implement the Sharia as the law, only those who stoned say something against the official religion. If that's your definition of civilized, you know what to do with it. Enjoy it.

zionist forever   (01.14.11)
" The palestinians have been living there for so many centuries " RUBBISH The arabs who today call themselves palestinians most of them followed the zionists from as far away as Iraq. Up until even WW1 arabs were mostly nomadic and there were no arab states at all. Even today in many arab states including amongst the palestinians alot of people still see themselves as members of a certain tribe. Saddam Hussain is probably the only arab leader who tried to wipe out tribalism. The zionists need labourers, they had a healthcare system and farming knowhow the arabs did not which they were willing to share. The villages they have such sentimental feelings whilst some have been there longer most were founded in the late 19th early 20th century. Mark Twain visited Palestine in 1867 and he described it as: " A desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds. A silent mournful expanse a desolation is here that not even imagination can grace with pomp of life and action ... we never saw a human being on the whole route. There was hardly a tree or shrub anywhere. Even the olive and cactus, those fast friends of the worthless soil, had almost deserted the country." The population of Palestine itself was very small prior to zionism. Zionism has brought arabs to the region and at the same time created something worth fighting each other for. Palestinian history is one that was created with the founding of the PLO to give a legitimacy to their cause and the world fell for it. Even in 1948 when most arabs left hey defined themselves as arabs who came from the village of ..... not palestinians. They are refugees from individual villages they are not an independent group of arabs known as palestinians who became refugees from their country. After the war they started out as refugees when Israel wouldn't take them back and the arab states refused to take them in although I hardly think the grandchildren & great grandchildren can be considered refugees in their own right.

zionist forever   (01.14.11)
Salma For once I agree with you completely recognition of a state will not change the facts on the ground. You want to change that then you have to get your leaders to stop acting like children and speak with Israel unconditionally. For the first time ever you have a US president who hates Israel just as much as you do and is going all out to fight your cause but Abbas is squandering that by refusing to talk and if he doesn't talk Obama can't help him and Israel will continue doing what the hell it likes and say screw you to the rest of the world. In 1917 you blew the chance at getting a huge binational arab majority state which would have included all of what became Jordan. At this stage the jews didn't even want an actual jewish state they wanted binational. Its not until the late 20s early 30s that zionist policy changed so that a binational state was no longer acceptable and nothing less than a jewish state would do. In 1947/48 you blew the chance for an independent arab state in 45% of the remains of mandate Palestine after the creation of Jordan. Today your about to loose a state in 22% of mandate Palestine Israel did not capture in 1948/49 You don't see a pattern here: You keep refusing the offers and as a result every time a new offer is made its worse than before. Tell your leaders to make use of Obama not play silly games with third world countries. If you don't the US will get a new pro Israel president and your people will continue to rot away whilst you watch Israel prospering.

Hey, ever hear of a guy named Torquemada? How about Ferdinand and Isabella? Those names mean anything to you? Of course you realize that it's been all downhill for Spain since 1492. Wonder why (well, actually, I don't. I KNOW why.) How's it going with the Basque up in the north? For that matter, how is it going in Catalan? Too bad about the Spanish economy tanking. We will be spending a few weeks at our home in Fuengirola next month, and I shall be sure to raise a toast to the rapid demise of your miserable country.

Well before this summer, Israel will annex Judea and Samaria and repatriate its Arab residents to Jordan. A toast is very much in order. I shall definitely raise a glass to you -- just don't let the door slam you in the tizz on your way out of Eretz Israel, okay chica?

Have you noticed that the trickle exists solely in countries half a world away? Have you noticed that said trickle does not include a single country outside of Latin America, not even an Arab or Moslem nation? Gee. Why do you suppose that is? You are quite the fool.

Wasn't Che Guevara murdered in cold blood by another Latin American? No wonder you feel an affinity, Salma. Murdering one's cohorts is quite the ersatz "Palestinian" thing, isn't it? Just take a look at Colombia .... Bolivia .... Peru .... Paraguay .... hmmmm. Oh yes, the spirit of Che Guevara is very much alive and well in South America ....

Can you look up from your copy of Mein Kampf long enough to recognize that the Jews are the indigenous people of Israel? You know, Kingdom of Judah; Kingdom of Israel .... Didn't think so. Oh well.
52. The only Flood...
Edwin   (01.14.11)
Guyana is inviting a flood: the kind Brazil in experiencing immediately after joining the dark side. First they had riots in the streets, and then floods. Watch what will happen now in Guyana. However, it might be difficult to notice when things are already so bad that one cannot walk the streets alone in safety at night in downtown Georgetown. It is a country full of buccaneers, where I was once instructed by the local police to kill my assailants before they will kill me! Funny how the best of countries recognize Palistan!
53. #44 Know its correct spelling first...
Nour ,   Palestine   (01.14.11)
"No got too much SANGARALA & PAELA" It's Sangria and Paella. "Do not forget,still SPAIN and the Spanish people have an account with the JEWS,and promise you that the ALMIGHTY works on mysterious way. Spain & Portugal wait for G D judgement. " That's right, remember who bailed you out in Iberia? The Muslims! The Ottomans even sent you Jews ships to rescue you from the clutches of the inquisition. How do you show gratitude? ZIONISM and 62 years of senseless wars waged because you arrogantly alleged Palestine had no indigenous population! Don't be so jealous now the Spaniards are on our side. Just remember whose room is most comfy.

57. in 48 letter to wife, Naser: army took over Jewish settlemen
observer   (01.14.11)
in a letter to his wife dated 6.21.1948, late president Naser wrote:"attached you find some postage stamps, to be given to Aadel (wife's nephew). Those stamps came from a Jewish settlement taken over by the Egyptian army. There is irregularity in the mail for we left Gaza on 6.4.48 and status has changed. I'm expected a lease with the truce, then I'll return to see you in-shaa-allah." In other letters Naser is giving the impression that he was in sight seeing tour, not in war in Palestine. http://www.ahram.org.eg/412/2011/01/14/12/58266.aspx Was it really viewed as war by Arabs (Milhemet)? Egyptian Jews are good knowledge the movie star Ismail Yasin whose movie, contemporary to Nakba, gave the same sight seeing tour impression. The Arab troops together were outnumbered by Israel's troops who were far better armed after the truce(s) and that was why Arab troops viewed it as sight seeing tour.

Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.14.11)
Okay. Here's gratitude: Thank you very much for according the Jewish people dhimmi status. Thank you very much for expelling the Jews from Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Morocco, Iraq, Baluchistan, Bokhara and Yemen. There! Is that enough gratitude for you? Hope so, because that's all you're going to get. The Arabs started all six wars. Please do not hate us just because we kicked your asses each and every time. By the way, of COURSE Palestine had an indigenous population! The JEWS are indigenous to Palestine. Everyone else came later. Face it, you're nothing but an illegal squatter. Throughout the world, do you know what happens to illegal squatters? I will tell you. They get evicted. Start packing, chica.

Recognize Palestine It Won't Be Long Until Israel Has No Diplomatic Missions. And that means no Mossad stations. Go ahead pull you diplomats. It would be the best thing to happen to a country.

Even I respect your opinions and feelings, before you become a "free" souveign nations, you should free yourself from your hate and underdog behavior...there was never a palestinian nation, but if the mainly refugees from other arabs countrys, who came to palestine, feel so, ok, no problem...even if your arabs "brothers" not so happy with it, if we can trust wikileads...
