In the U.S., Palestinians are seen as the oppressed by the media, intellectuals, who should no better, college studentsand faculty by the Jew haters and by Obama and the rest of the far left. Very soon they will be recognized as a state by the U.N. with it's overwhelming number of Arab countries.

You want the state of Israel to negotiate with a people who claim she has no right to exist and will go to any lengths to pillage plunder and destroy at any cost, including the cost of human lives? You want these people who can't decide whether their leadership should be terrorist group A or terrorist group B and claim to be freedom fighters represented in DC? In all this time the only steps toward "independence" that these people have made has been awash with the blood of decent society-contributing people. The only money they have is from handouts from those who share their desire to destroy Israel. And you want these people represented inDC? Why is it that we don't see any other Arab nation support its development, we only hear of the likes of Syria and Iran joining them in an arms struggle to destroy israel? Why is it that Egypt is only too scared that these people will want anything to do with her, she has built walls and fences to keep her out and Lebanon has kept them in squatter camps for decades? Why is Jordan turning a blind eye to their existence?And Mark, what happens AFTER they declare themselves a state? Do we all get to live happily ever after? next time you sit and have coffee with one of your Arab buddies ask them what they mean when they say "After Saturday comes Sunday" and then you may be a little less smug.

"invaders", is the name ancient Hebrews called those ancient people who invaded the Land of Israel from the sea, possibly Crete. The term "Palestinians" enter the lexicon only in the late 1960s and early 1970s for political expediency. It is telling that the Arabs of Eretz Israel have not have a name in Arabic with which to call themselves, claiming to be an organic people. It is also telling that they chose a term that means invaders...!!

Do you have any idea how much money not only the US but EU, etc has given to the Palestinians over the last 40 years? (probably 100's of billions). Where is that money now Nour? Maybe you should be demonstrating in front of Arafat's rich wife at her mansion in France. All this money for a small ingrate tribe that insults us and constantly complains they're broke and impoverished. We can't help it if your "leaders" are corrupt and your people never get the money-why don't you go after them instead? Also, it's time to "lose" that ski-masked AK-47 look and upgrade yourselves-it's so 70's and it doesn't scare us anymore. Put down the weapons and join the civilized world because you're out-gunned and it doesn't make you any friends. As for your flag, go ahead and fly it-we're a free country and you have a right to free speech too. Even McDonalds fly their flag here. I do hope that someday you (and Salma) get a free and peaceful country. You have part of a country right now in Gaza and all you do is enforce sharia police-state, persecute the few Christians left and threaten your neighbor. You will never get your freedom at the point of a gun. Why don't you start a new "resistance" against taking money from Ol' fat and broke Uncle Sam? We can't afford to support your fat and rich "leaders" and their European mansions and life styles anymore. I hope you and Salma keep posting but please stop taking our "great satan" cash. Where did those 100's of billions of apparently wasted dollars go? That's the only question you Palestinians should be asking right now-or don't you want to know the truth?

Cliched, tired old Likud statements like "there was never such as a Palestine". I mean, it's as if your forefathers roamed the land for centuries? You are illegal immigrants, remember the White Paper? The Balfour illegal, colonial declaration earlier? Did you think our memory spans 20 years? Your legitimacy is in question, and you have the nerve to claim that our nation and people don't exist? You must be a dinosaur.

Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish State, we will NEVER EVER divide it with "people" who wish to distroy us and our State. Jerusalem is holy to the jews for more then 3.000 years. It started to be holy to arabs since the last 60 years when the jews got it back. There will be no peace even if you get the palestinian state with east Jerusalem as a capital. East Jerusalem will become the capital of islamic terrorism, war will start from there, qassams will be sent from the mosques and from palestinins houses, like in Gaza. We know you already very well, you can't live in peace because you hate us. You will move wars, even if you get your state, your jihad will go on forever, for this reason NOBODY IS GIVING YOU A STATE. Nobody will agree to share OUR Jerusalem with terrorists, nobody will share Jerusalem with people like you who say "Nasrallah I love you " ! . learn how to be human being!

> Now watch the UK and/or Germany recognize Palestine If you want to watch Germany doing that, you got to have a REALLY long breath! - At least that's what I, as a German and a friend of Israel, am proud of taking for granted! After all, there must still be those nations in that sad world whose governments have not yet been lulled into the general, popular anti-Jew and anti-Israel waves of political disorder and desinformation that are currently on the rise in most of the western countries!

Jordan flag is just the same minus the white star. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Jordan compare the two, even pali's flag isn't original.

The PA is simply moving a solution further away. A formal declaration of a Palestinian state would mean cancellation of the Oslo accords and where would you be then? (The Palestinian Authority would have responsibility for the administration of the territory under its control. The Accords also called for the withdrawal of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) from parts of the Gaza Strip and West Bank). The thee no's must become the three yes's before any progress is made. Yes, we recognise Israel as a Jewish State. Yes, we accept that there will be no right of return. Yes. we agree to military cooperation. Sorry but until then there will only be "hot air".

Israel must immediately declare war on the new "Palestinian entity". Once eliminated, the Arab residents of the Land of Israel can live peacefully and in harmony with the Jewish residents here and build a unified and prosperous country. We invite our Arab neighbors to join with us in this adventure. Together, we can make this country an outstanding place to live with respect and honor for all the country's residents. It is G-d's will that, in the end, we shall all live in peace together.

The power behind your cause is Arab oil. When that runs out in 30 or 40 years, so does your cause. The other joke of the century is the play you are making as an endangered indigenous population among Western intellectuals. But that has a short half life too. Soon the remnants of the real indigenous populations of the Levant, Egypt and North Africa will discover their stories sell better in the West. Then you will be revealed for what you are. Israel will be the least of your troubles.

For a few years the Swatstika of Nazi Germany flew in Washington for 19333-1940/41 they were the allies of the Palestinians with the Mufti of Jerusalem living in Berlin with Adolph Hitler and Eichman that flag eventually came down as hopefully will this one

please do not use rhum before write. Palestine will be first Democracy in Middle est. Palestine IS first democracy in middle est. don't' forget israel is ONLY for jews .

Oh yes,your flag will fly all over Israeli toilets,and I hav e already done one. The day your ugly flag will fly all over Israel only when you re write your Quran

If you did you'd have a different history... TATA

it's a typical example of israelis democratics heroes. racism as a rule, rules only for jews.rules for others goim/arabs. speaking about flags in toilets.typical jews discussion...obiously your world round around toilets. you have differents problems dear #47, first problem, you don't knows that all people are equal .....after we talk about VIP (NON)democracy of israel open eyes e close your mouth. better for u, first.

This is nothing to do with racism,or rules My eyes are wide open,and I can see one day Islam will take over Europe with your stupid laws. Ask the Vatican to give back what they have stolen from our temple, and to apologise to the Jewish nation. By the way how many CHURCHES in Saudi Arabia.

is ale or ALI

ale,once the ROMAN EMPIRE WERE THE GREATEST EMPIRE ON EARTH. UNTOUCHABLE Where are they now? Dead & buried without name,and this is because they have destroyed our TEMPLE.Still you have an open account with us,until your VATICAN return all the HOLY items stolen from our TEMPLE. You will be judge by the ALMIGHTY not by us.

very sad day indeed. We said this would happen under nobama's watch - and it's happening. The big question have the decent people of America got his cards yet and have they realised the damage he has already wreakced on the free world? ... less than 2 years and we will find out ....

Do you really think if the Romans didn't destroy the 'TEMPLE' when they did, it would be viable today? Grow up...and stop listening to old sick Jewish tales about Jewish treasure buried in the Vatican... Even if it was true..who'd the Jews steal it from? We know Jews don't work..they read Torah....hahahaha TATA

If the Romans did not destroy the TEMPLE,IT WOULD STILL BE THERE.No doubt at all the Romans did steal many treasured things from the TEMPLE and it is in the VATICAN.Are you saying we stole things,what things.Everything in the TEMPLE was done by the JEWS. Oh Yes Jews don't work,they read Torah,thats is the reason they are well off Are you jealous Mr.?

you have seriously problems about alcool and school. so, sit down, ear: Rome exist! is there a magnificent (most magnificent) city in italy, with 4mil people . Rome is a capital of a country. this country is in europe. you can visit Rome (magnificent city) like millions tourists do every year ..... change your school and your teachers dear lion.... and visit Rome. discover the true!!!! poor lion. ps. in Rome there wasn't Vatican when romans destroyed your temple. ask about it to your inables teachers....

As ale, from Italy says...you need a better education...you're woefully uneducated...and all wrong! hahahaha TATA
