All Israelis are Europeans? You can't compare but there are similarities?

What are you talking about?

What difference does it make? It's a genocidal terror campaign. Like the holocaust. Conducted by Muslims.

They're around. They're just working in casinos now.

Very funny. I actually dated a 50% N.A. for a few years, and his mother is 100% Tlingit... one of only 2000 or so left, even though they weren't affected by the original settlements (they originate in Alaska). Anyway, it's a sad fact of our world's history, but people have been displaced since the beginning of time. Guess it's the natural order of things.

Weren't you the one who just said all Jews are different, and cannot be lumped into a nationality? Most American Jews originate from Europe, but worldwide we are fairly mixed... LOTS of Jews are of Middle-Eastern, African & Asian descent, even among those living in Israel. I spent a summer in Israel many years ago, and most of the Jewish folks I met looked more Middle-Eastern than European.

I said AFRO-curls... big difference. Although Carrot-Top almost has the kinkiness, so he could definitely be mistaken for Jewish! But if you saw my hair, you'd know what I mean by afro-curls as opposed to normal curls.

Oh, you must be referring to Black September...

Black September in Jordan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

But wasn't that committed by Arabs on other Arabs?

Why do you think that happened? Were those Jews behind it? Did they hynotize Hussein?

Explain it to us....

Then explain how and why the Palestinians aren't Jordanians, and why the real "Occupation" is the existence of Jordan.

First I need the "how" and "why" part explained. Palestinians aren't Jordanians. That is to say, they aren't the people who happen to be native to what is now Jordan. But they have been moving in to Jordan to the extent that they now make up more than 50% of the population in that kingdom.

Well I'm a Democrat and I guess by some would be called liberal because I'm a Democrat. Anyways, I support Israel. I consider the Palestinians to be none other than the same Philistines that David and his brothers battled against in the Bible. I believe that Israel is the Promised Land and they should not have to give up any part of it to anyone especailly to the same folks that were trying to steal it in the Bible. I just pray that one day there is another David to slay that danged Goliath.
