  1. so u r 4 Israel to be in Palestine?

    and your for the palestinians?

    that means your for the 2-state solution, which is a good start for peace! ^_^


  2. I believe that Israel deserves the land (i agree with you)

  3. No.

  4. Question is moot. Israel existed, exists and will continue to exist. So, what's the difference what you ask? Deserve, not deserve...outcome is the same. Only real problem is hatred of Muslims towards others...shed that and all comes together.

  5. Do you think that Israel deserves its own land?  Do you think all of Israel is really Palestinian land?  If you do, we disagree about whose land it is.

    If you think Palestinians should have their land and Israel should have Israel's land, I agree.  But it will only work if Palestine can form a stable government that will control the terrorists.  It is very sad to me to see so much suffering in Palestine, and there is no stable government.

  6. You see, there is no such thing as Palestinian land.

    The facts are that in the Mandate conferred on Britain in 1922 by the League of Nations, the objective was to facilitate the "reconstitution" of a Jewish National Home in Palestine, which at the time included BOTH sides of the Jordan River, an area of approximately 116,500 square kilometers.  

    However, in 1922-23, contradicting the terms of its mandate and ignoring Jewish protests, the British excised 80% of the area intended for the Jewish National Home.  In the almost-empty area east of the Jordan River, it created a new state named Transjordan, which has since been renamed the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.  

    These facts are confirmed on the Jordanian website http://www.kinghussein.gov.jo/his_transj... in the following words.  "On May 15, 1923, Britain formally recognized the Emirate of Transjordan as a state under the leadership of Emir Abdullah.  This angered the Zionists, as it effectively severed Transjordan from Palestine and so reduced the area of any future Jewish national home in the region."  

    Since World War I, an additional 11 independent Arab states were created, namely Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iraq,  Syria, Lebanon, Sudan, Algeria, Libya, Tunisia, and Morocco, covering over 9 million square  kilometers.  By comparison the total area of Israel excluding the West Bank covers less than 21 thousand square kilometers.  

    The UN adopted the Mandate complete with its obligation to promote Jewish settlement and in 1947 it passed Resolution 181 by a vote of 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions, partitioning the area west of the Jordan between Jews and Arabs.  This resolution affirming the creation of a Jewish state, was one of the few issues on which the US and Soviet Russia voted together.  

    The Jews accepted the resolution, despite the huge reduction in the area allocated for the promised homeland.  Unfortunately, all the Arab states rejected the resolution and this great opportunity for a two state solution was lost, as have many opportunities been lost since then.  

    Had the Arab states accepted the partition resolution, there would be no Palestinian refugee problem today.  Unfortunately the moment Israel was established in its reduced area, five Arab armies immediately invaded, publicly declaring their intention to slaughter all the Jews and leading to the very sad state of affairs that continues to this day.

  7. No; they are illegal aliens and should be deported as such as soon as possible following a successful revolution.

  8. My godfather is a Lebanese Christian and I firmly believe (and am in no way affected by his thoughts) Israel doesn't derserve Palestinian land and will add that both groups have been oppressed by their own governments - and the "other" whichever it may be

    Inch'allah may there someday be eternal Shalom.

  9. there are people who call this land "The Land of Israel". there are people like you that oppose. god will solve this, as the saying (a paraphrase on a saying of napoleon): God fights on the side with the strongest army. unless you want to make peace.

  10. I'm an Israeli, I don't understand what you are asking, my mother is a Levi, her last name can be traced back 4000 years, right smack into Israels history, in the beat of times you can trace yours to Greece, you know, Plishtim came from there.

  11. what r u nutz.

    im palestinian too and i say h**l no. anyone can change there name for example levi and some b.s. like that just so they can say that israel is theres.

  12. israel deserves israel, there was never "palestinian" landA common misperception is that all the Jews were forced into the Diaspora by the Romans after the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem in the year 70 C.E. and then, 1,800 years later, suddenly returned to Palestine demanding their country back. In reality, the Jewish people have maintained ties to their historic homeland for more than 3,700 years.

    The Jewish people base their claim to the Land of Israel on at least four premises: 1) the Jewish people settled and developed the land; 2) the international community granted political sovereignty in Palestine to the Jewish people; 3) the territory was captured in defensive wars and 4) God promised the land to the patriarch Abraham.

    Even after the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem and the beginning of the exile, Jewish life in the Land of Israel continued and often flourished. Large communities were reestablished in Jerusalem and Tiberias by the ninth century. In the 11th century, Jewish communities grew in Rafah, Gaza, Ashkelon, Jaffa and Caesarea.

    The Crusaders massacred many Jews during the 12th century, but the community rebounded in the next two centuries as large numbers of rabbis and Jewish pilgrims immigrated to Jerusalem and the Galilee. Prominent rabbis established communities in Safed, Jerusalem and elsewhere during the next 300 years. By the early 19th century — years before the birth of the modern Zionist movement — more than 10,000 Jews lived throughout what is today Israel.1 The 78 years of nation-building, beginning in 1870, culminated in the reestablishment of the Jewish State.

    Israel's international "birth certificate" was validated by the promise of the Bible; uninterrupted Jewish settlement from the time of Joshua onward; the Balfour Declaration of 1917; the League of Nations Mandate, which incorporated the Balfour Declaration; the United Nations partition resolution of 1947; Israel's admission to the UN in 1949; the recognition of Israel by most other states; and, most of all, the society created by Israel's people in decades of thriving, dynamic national existence.

    “Nobody does Israel any service by proclaiming its 'right to exist.'

    Israel's right to exist, like that of the United States, Saudi Arabia and 152 other states, is axiomatic and unreserved. Israel's legitimacy is not suspended in midair awaiting acknowledgement....

    There is certainly no other state, big or small, young or old, that would consider mere recognition of its 'right to exist' a favor, or a negotiable concession

  13. no they dont even for 1%

    i have my own proofs

  14. Leaving the "Palestinian lands" issue aside (I disagree with the title), my answer to you is YES, considering the following facts:

    *Most lands were bought legally by the Jewish settlements from the Ottoman owners.

    *The lands were well-worked for decades in order to become fertile (many agricultural lands were in fact swamps and deserts).

    * Prior to 1948 the Palestinian Arabs were offered several agreements (e.g. the "Partition Plan" that assured the Arabs all the fertile areas) to which they responded with war. A war they lost.

  15. If there was any they would deserve it all.

  16. Look Israel/Palestine issue is the last unsolved colonial rule in the world.

    Both have the right to exist and both must solve that colonial conflict like other former colonies.

    The Israeli colonist must realized that their existence is based on the existence's of the native people of Palestine.

  17. The basic issue here is the fundamental question: "What exactly is 'Palestinian land'?

    Since there was never a sovereign country called Palestine controlled by Arabs then what exactly makes it Palestinian land?
