Question

Whats hapening in the Middle East? who is right and who is wrong? arabs or Israel???

Answer 1

The world gave the Jews their land back, there are no two ways about it.

It's not a matter of right or wrong.

Answer 2

There's blame on both sides, you can't say one side is wrong and the other right. It's not black and white.

Answer 3

War.  That is what is going on.  Fought by the Arabs.  Israel is observing a one-sided cease fire.

Israel is right.  The warmongering Arabs are wrong.

It is important to know the history of the area to understand what needs to be done.

The first Arab immigrants who settled in the so-called Palestine - or, according to the modern UN conception, the first "Palestinian refugees" - were actually Jewish Arabs, namely Nabateans who adopted Judaism.  

Before the rise of Islam, flourishing centers like Khaybar and Yathrib (renamed Madinah) were mainly Jewish Nabatean cities.  Whenever there was a famine in the land, people would go to Khaybar; the Jews always had fruit, and their springs yielded a plentiful supply of water.  

Once the Muslim hordes conquered the Arabian Peninsula, all that richness was ruined; the Muslims perpetrated massacres against the Jews and replaced them with masses of ignorant fellahin submitted to the new religion.  The survivors had to escape and took refuge in the Holy Land, mainly in Jericho and Dera'a, on both shores of the Jordan.

The Arab caliphs (Umayyad, Abbasid and Fatimid) controlled the Holy Land until 1071 CE, when Jerusalem was captured by the Seldjuq Turks, and after that time, it was never again under Arab rule.  During all that period, Arabs hardly established any permanent social structure of their own, but rather governed over the native non-Arab Christian and Jewish population.  Any honest observer would notice that the Arabs ruled over the Holy Land three centuries less than they did over Spain!

In 1099 CE, the European Crusaders conquered the so-called Palestine and established a kingdom that was politically independent, but never developed a national identity; it was just a military outpost of Christian Europe.  The Crusaders were ruthless and tried by all means to remove any expression of Jewish culture, but all their efforts ended without success.  

In 1187 CE, Jews actively participated with Salah-ud-Din Al'Ayyub (Saladin) against the Crusaders in the conquest of Jerusalem.  Saladin, who was the greatest Muslim conqueror, was not an Arab but a Kurd.  The Crusaders took Jerusalem back from 1229 to 1244 CE, when the City was captured by the Khwarezmians.  A period of chaos and Mongol invasions followed until 1291CE, when the Mameluks completed the conquest of almost the whole Middle East and settled their capital in Cairo, Egypt.  The Mameluks were originally Central Asian and Caucasian mercenaries employed by the Arab caliphs; a medley of peoples whose main contingent was composed by Kumans, a Turkic tribe also known as Kipchak, related to the Seldjuqs, Kimaks and other groups.  They were characterized by their ambiguous behavior, as Kuman mercenaries were often contemporarily serving two enemy armies.  The Mameluk soldiers did not miss the right moment to seize power for themselves, and even after their rule was overthrown, they were still employed as warriors by the Ottoman sultans and at last by Napoleon Bonaparte.

In 1517 CE, Jerusalem and the whole Holy Land were conquered by the Ottoman Turks and remained under their rule during four centuries, until 1917 CE, when the British captured Jerusalem and established the "Mandate of Palestine." It was the end of the Ottoman Empire, that owned all the present-day Arab countries until then.  Indeed, since the fall of the Abbasid caliphate in 945 CE, no Arab political entity existed in the Middle East for almost a millennium!

By the beginning of the 20th century CE, the population of Judea and Samaria - the improperly called "West Bank" - was less than 100,000 inhabitants, of which the majority were Jews.  Gaza had no more than 80,000 "native" inhabitants in 1951, at the end of Israel's Independence War against the whole Arab world.  Gaza was occupied by Arabs: How is it possible that in only 50 years it has increased from 80,000 to more than one million people? Are all those Arabs of Gaza so skilful as to procreate children in a supernatural way? Mass immigration is the ONLY plausible explanation for such a demographic increase.  The Arab occupation between 1948 and 1967 was an advantageous opportunity for Arab leaders to promote mass immigration of so-called "Palestinians" (a mishmash of Arab immigrants) into Judea, Samaria and Gaza from every Arab country, mainly Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Jordan.  In fact, since 1950 until the Six-Day War, under Jordanian rule, more than 250 Arab settlements have been founded in Judea and Samaria.  The recent construction of the Arab houses is quite evident by the materials used for building: concrete and cinderblock.  The Israeli government admits to have allowed over 240,000 workers to enter Judea and Samaria through the border with Jordan since the Oslo Conference - only to have them stay in those territories as Arab settlers.  The actual numbers are probably higher.  If hundreds of thousands of Middle Eastern migrant workers are flooding into the Judea, Samaria and Gaza, why should Israel be required to provide them jobs? In fact the reverse, by supporting their economy while these people refuse to accept Israeli or Jordanian citizenship, Israel is only attracting more migrant workers.  Saudi Arabia in a single year expelled over 1,000,000 stateless migrant workers.  

Lest anyone think that these are all "Palestinians," taking account of the definition of  "Palestinian" according to the United Nations: all those Arabs that spent TWO YEARS in "Palestine" before 1948, and their descendants - with or without proof or documentation -.  This definition was specifically designed to include immigrant Arab settlers (not Jewish settlers!).

Answer 4

Well, considering that one of the two are causing trouble all over the world, I think you've got your answer.

Answer 5

Conclusion:

Who doesn't own, gave who has no right the land of the Palestinians.

And since then, the Middle East went in a closed circle of none ending violence. period

Answer 6

It isn't for any one person to judge who is right and who is wrong in a struggle that has been going on for thousands of years.

One thing is for sure - even if the Palestinians claim they own the land and that they were there first and the Jews stole it from them, it is recorded that Abraham actually BOUGHT it from them. Ephron wanted to give it to him, free of charge, but Abraham wanted a record for generations that the land belongs to him and his descendents.

Besides for the fact that Abraham promised the land to his son Isaac and his descendents, while the Arabs come from Ismail, Abraham's other son, who was given land in the southeast of Israel.
