Answer 3

Are you serious?  Why do you live in the US and not in Canada (or vice versa)?  Not all North Americans are the same and neither are all Arabs.  Palestine is HOME to many.  Israel offers nothing but violence and military control to Gaza and the West Bank.  Further, when you live in a place that the world doesn't recognize as a nation, you are unable to travel or relocate unless a country will take you in as a refugee - unless you are of the upper class, in which case there is always a way out.

In short, this is not about preferences.  I think you should research the Israeli-Palestinian conflict some more and draw a more reasonable conclusion.

Answer 4

dont listen to cass. well god gave Israel to jews, or declared it their land after they wandered through wild for 40 years after moses and aaron took them out of pharos rule. so after 40 years, he gave them isael. a lot of poepl, not just jews lived their. a lot of conflict too with jews and palistines even then. then later later later, with no homeland for jews or palstines i pretty sure, after world war 2, the British had israel as a little colony, like they did with a lot of parts of the world. but with n need of it, the UN, a lot of world leaders, and brittin decided that it should be givin back to the jews. actually, they wanted it to be jews and palistines together, both governments together and people. it is truely the jews land, given by god. but since the palistines had lived there too at times, they feel its theirs to, so want to live in israel instead of jordan and stuff. also, since palistines have no home land the other countrys dotn want a bunch a bunch of people coming into their country's. but with both races (and jew is a race too) caling it there land, there is guna be conflict. also, did you know that muhamad, the founder of islam was a poor christian, who was a begger untill, i dont know how, he became rich and a warrior, started a religion islam, and spread it by sword. but many other religions have spread religion by force too. even, a little mine, Christians. but most religions will go for jews. Israel rightfully belongs to jews, but you can understand why palistines believe its theirs too. hope you read all i put down, sorry its so long. but erligions will ahve differnt stories of what i said. but if you notice, when the jews had no homeland they didnt go killing palistiens. but when palistines have no homeland, you see rockets killing isralies launched from palistines in gaza strip, and suicide bombers. i have some terror victems stories. that i wont share though. isralies the victems though. hope you learned from my long story. but i do have to say the palistines get c**p to live in. i could go on. but if you see what SOME palistines do to israelies, you could change our mind. and the funny thing is, israel means struggles with god. god gave that name to jacob. jews land, it will stay their laand. but israel is in 4 quarters. jew quater, christian quarter, muslim quarter, and i cant remember last quarter. i think it might be free zone. where they all can go free. its where the dome of the rock, and wailing wall is i pretty sure.

Find the answer here.

The BBC writes that Mrs. Nawaja was hospitalized for three days after the attack with a broken arm and fractured cheek. After returning home, she told the BBC that her attackers "don't want us to stay on our land. But we won't leave. We'll die here. It's ours." Agence France-Presse reports that an Israeli police spokesperson says an investigation has been opened, but no arrests have been made.

Quote: The jews "don't want us to stay on our land. But we won't leave. We'll die here. It's ours."
