2. Bottom line: This land is ours. "Palestinians" are poseurs
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.16.15)
When all is said and done, the simple, naked truth is that this land belongs to Jews. "Palestinians" are evil poseurs, who must leave.

4. Already Established as IRON CLAD FACT
Adam ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (12.17.15)
How ignorant is the writer? It is historically established that Jews were the majority in the Galilee for centuries after the destruction of the Temple and have always lived there.
5. Never was any doubt Jews lived in Galilee 1500 years ago

The Jerusalem Talmud - the counterpart to the more prominent Babylonian Talmud - was composed in the land of Israel. In the Galilee, where the larger Jewish community resided. About 1500 years ago. The only questions might be did Jews live in *this* settlement - which now appears settled - and whether this is the location referenced in the New Testament. The fact is that despite the exile and numerous restrictions, Jews remained a permanent presence in the Land of Israel. They never left, and never surrendered their claims to the land.
