The Promised Land? - End of the Dream? - 19 May 08 - Part 1

A special series examining the origins, violent creation, and modern-day reality of the state of Israel through the stories of individual Israelis.

The final episode looks at modern day Israel - a country that bears little resemblance to the one imagined by its Zionist forbearers.

Hahaha, yeah right. We all know what your rabbis say. The entire world has seen the Jewish talmud. "1000 gentiles are not even worth the fingernail of a jew". Your religion doesnt allow murder? Funny, the Israeli terror state has violated more UN resolutions than anyone else. Israel routinely kills women and children, and human rights organizations have documented it.

@vadimzdonutube I would suggest a piece of land in the United States (there's a perfect spot in the State of Pennsylvania)

[vadimzdonutube]

@JumpingTomato where did u expect them to establish a state? the south pole

[uncleadolf]

@JumpingTomato The original Zionists didn't give a shit about Jerusalem, in fact Herzl even considered Uganda for a state.

[uncleadolf]

@vadimzdonutube Obviously you're unaware that many of the original Zionists laid claim to both Palestine and Jordan.

[JumpingTomato]

I always wondered why the Jewish State had to be established right there, while it was clear from the beginning that the surrounding countries and the people living there wouldn't agree. Also there was plenty of room elsewhere, where nobody would have made a problem out of it. Is is because of Jerusalem? Sure it may have great religious value, but is it worth the conflict and the deaths on both sides? Tell me! I really need to know!

[vadimzdonutube]

there is already a palestinian state called "jordan", no more to be said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@danny1st Aim their rockets better? please, they're basicaly just tubes and you think they're able even to aim them?

3. no it doesn't and that's why it's bullshit...

[danny1st]

@Darusdei

1. Sorry, I added one more "0". I was referring to the Nazi officer on trail for the murder of 30000 Jews in Sobibor death camp.

2. Don't mix "courageous" reporting with exploiting your journalist "free pass card". They were reporting on exact rocket fall location, which was not allowed, and they knew it. the reports helped Hizballah to aim better at targets. No country would allow such thing.

3. "Hello, we are about to stone a Jew to death, wanna come?" sound normal to you?

[Darusdei]

@danny1st 1.) a criminal who killed 30,000 but means 3,000,000 jews?. jews were not the only ones being exterminated, there were other by the millions.

2.) they're getting sued all over because they're reporting on things some people don't want reporting... (for example, look at your countrys censorship)

3.) so?

[danny1st]

@Darusdei Only 490 characters to use on comments anyway.

Let me give you 3 real examples to back my previous comment:

1. Al-Jazeera article about a Nazi war criminal that is charged with "killing 300000 people". meaning: murdering 3000000 Jews.

2. They were sued for aiding Hezbollah in 2006 by reporting the location of where rockets fell.

3. About a week ago, Al-Jazeera photographer was invited to a planned ambush in Jerusalem shooting Palestinians kids throwing stones on Israeli cars.
