Just a few posts ago you said maybe the Jews simply shouldn't be on Arab land. So if the Arabs weren't there first, and the Jews have been there essentially since the dawn of time, what in the world makes it Arab land then?

You are tripping all over yourself. LMAO.

These folks are a weird bunch.
ironic how those who accuse Israel of apartheid seem to have no issues calling for the JUDEN to be removed from SO CALLED "Palestinian land"

so freaking pathetic!

But the second choice isn't an option unless they have a partner that wants peace. This leaves us with the status quo.
if everyone would just stop feeding "it", well, you know.

Though thanks for the link of Graham trying to state how his version of God is the only version....that really convinced me who's fairytale is more accurate.

Also, what does 1913 have to do with anything? We are talking about today, not about people who are all dead now.....
So are you so dead in your thinking you CAN'T see the difference in what Mohammad tells his followers and what Jesus tells His......the two are completely different and that is where it begins. Jesus is known to come from a Father in Heaven, if Islam dismisses this, where is the connection?


If you read something from a Islamic scholar about Jesus would you believe it? Yet, you will dismiss a man that has spent his whole life studying the word of Jesus, and try to tell Christians what they believe. That's amazing!


1913.......it shows the land was barren, no life, so how can the Palestinians say they were there from the beginning of time?

I don't have a problem with people who truly don't care about things that have "no effect on their lives". Sure, they may be a little shallow, and not part of the solution, but at least they are not part of the problem. They don't care about Tibet, the Kurds, the Armenians, or the Palestinians. They just ignore the conversations involving these subjects. But the selective "I don't care" people, they seem to not care about any of the other conflicts in the world EXCEPT for Israel. Then they have a lot to say about a subject that they "don't care" about.
Nope, I find this to be an interesting topic, but one that has no effect on my life therefore I don't care about the outcome.

There also seems to be an abnormal amount of pro Israel threads that pop up on this site....I don't recall those same people creating sites about he Tibetans, Kurds, or Armenians either, therefore you don't see many comments about those places on this site. Maybe if those places concern you so much, you should start threads about them.

I guess you misread my post, the Jews shouldn't be in the West Bank or Gaza Strip, and a portion of Jerusalem belongs to the Palestinians or Arabs.

It is two different messengers talking about the same God, you guys just don't like that it is two different people claiming to be the prophet. Which I hate to brake it to you, but they are both wrong, neither is the prophet of God because their religions were man-made and are not handed down from a spiritual being.

No life in 1913? So there wasn't 731K Arabs and 60K Jews living there at the time? Who thought that counted as "no life."

Jordanians because that's who they really are. Jordan is the one who kicked them out.
