So…Israel and Palestine is basically a holy book war?

[OddBeMe]

Neither has a “deed” to the land. It’s all just BS religious beliefs.

But a bigger argument is the 1948 displacement of Arabs…

[Avicenna]

What a surprise, Nazi Odd takes the Palestinian propaganda position. Jews lived in what's now Israel and the West Bank continuously long before the people who now call themselves Palestinians showed up (after Jews ended malaria in the area).

Anyway, in 1948, Israel was attacked by Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia, and somehow managed to survive. Some Arabs left voluntarily during the fighting (which they were ordered to do by the Arab attackers), and others were forced out by the Jews they were trying to wipe out just a few years after the Holocaust ended. Those who stayed became Israeli citizens, which is rather generous considering that their fellow Arabs had just tried to wipe out Israeli Jews. But supporters of the Palestinian terrorists don't care about such nuances. The people today called "Palestinians" originated primarily in what is now Egypt and Jordan. And then there is the matter of the Mizrahi Jews who once lived in Arab countries (and whose property there was confiscated by the Arabs). Maybe the "Palestinians" should be resettled there, among their fellow Arab Muslims...

Its ironic you hate illegals for "trespassing" but can't show any empathy to Palestinians who had their property taken from them and forced out. Lol

I blame the British as I do for a lot of colonial fuckery.

[OddBeMe]

Yeah I mean its tough. We also created the Baltic and Balkan states after WW1 by simply drawing lines on a map. This shit happens.

Im not so much anti Israel as just stop the violence and get tne two state solution for godsake

For Israel its all about stopping these rockets being fired at them daily and the Terror attacks. What would the US military response be if faced with the same situation in Cuba?

Look at all the aid that's been given to Gaza and Lebanon and yemen. What have they done with that Aid except use the money to build rockets and buy weapons and to build tunnels instead of building up their countries.

[OddBeMe]

It'd be like the US invading Mexico and bombing their cities because of the drug crisis. Except drugs kill more people than hamas rockets have.

Perhaps your solution to the war on drugs becoming a full blown war will work. Perhaps after that we can bomb KFC and mcdonald's due to obesity deaths and then ford for all the car deaths. Imagine a rocket landed during the superbowl.

LOL - is this the new bullshit Israel is trying, to get out of its war crimes trials?

The reality is that Nazism is now Zionism - it has the same ideology and murderous drive.

The problem there has always been political and racial, not religious.

[Sevenpointfive]

if you don't make it about who has the rights to be there and settle it's a holy war.
