Not sure what your point is here. Muslims have a 1400 yr history of taking over land and subjugating populous... Also, arabs/palestinians live quite well and in unison w/Israeli's; in-fact many of them don't want to give territory away as they'd rather live under Israeli rule than Hamas rule; THIS IS FACT. Miss. Israel was a beautiful & stunning Arab Woman. It's people outside the borders/wall (which has reduced suicide bombings) where the problems are.

Is that with or without cheese sauce?

[WingThaiJ]

BTW, did you get a chance to watch 'Pallywood' yet? Look all the footage & proof. Trustworthy people to merely believe, huh? ROFL

[WingThaiJ]

What does what you say have to do with anything? Hamas doesn't want Israel to exist, PLO admitted the palestinians are no different than any other arab & the reason for claiming a homeland was to gain arab unity... Hamas has to change it's tune if they want 'palestinians' to have a homeland... but you see, it's not about that, it's about exterminating jews... if you don't know this; you are a lost cause...

LOL! It takes too to tango? tell that the the Jews during WWII, or the black, native Africans, during the appartheidregime in Soutfafrica. Or why not the people in the Worldtrade Center 9/11.... "Two to tango"... pfft!

[WingThaiJ]

Lookg to future takes 2; as it does to tango. Fatah tells their people Israel will be no more once they hand over land; they were too stupid to know others were listening in.Hamas has in it's charter the destruction of Israel; Since Muslim Brotherhood's founding Nazi Father who was personally involved w/Hitler, the MBM has been passg down hatred & the whole argument against israel is that they r not muslim/they want to destroy jews; if udon't know that, then you don't know anything.

Part XIII:exterminated, after which Palestinians would return to inherit the land. Palestinians duly scuttled, abandoning the land with nomadic ease.Contrast that with the Jews: 580,000 ferocious Jewish soldiers gave their lives to defend the land against the conquering Romans, who also obliterated 985 Jewish villages. The Jews were forced to give up their homeland then … but will never again.
