Are Israeli settlers taking control of archaeological digs to manipulate
history and consolidate claims to Palestinian land? Some Israeli
archaeologists are starting to speak out.
The Palestinian village of Silwan is located just below the ancient City of
David, in the heart of Jerusalem. Archaeological digs here are under the
control of the right wing group, ELAD. The constant threat of demolition
hovers over people's houses. It's part of ELAD's program to take over and
occupy large parts of Silwan and make it Jewish?, complains archaeologist Dr
Rafi Greenberg. Locals have already defeated one plan to destroy close to
100 houses. But despite this victory, the nature of Silwan has changed
beyond recognition. As Greenberg laments?The place I knew as an Arab
village with archaeology, turned into a place with armed guards, a place
with amplified symbols of Israeli presence?.

Doesn't it mean that almost 3/4 of the Arabs have been "legally" tossed out of their homes? Same as most of the West Bank is in Jewish hands. Arabs out - Jews in. Jews aquire - Arabs get the boot.

You have to know that the Jewish goal is earthbound and it is desire to aquire. Jews aquire. They aquire power, land, influence, WHATEVER. It is the goal to HAVE. In Israel it means to aquire Arab land and toss them out. Jews remain, Arabs go. The end to aquire EVERYTHING justifies the Jewish MEANS. Name the oppression and injustice and it is justified by the goal to aquire. Bomb, starve, jail, alienate, threaten, bribe, coerce, lie, cheat, steal, torture, but by all means AQUIRE!

You got your story wrong. The Spaniards catholicised the islands only to make subduing the natives easier then they tried to erase it's animistic past. While all that was happening, where were the muslims when they should be opposing the Spaniards? Nowhere? When the whole island turned catholic, everyone was at peace except for the few revolts here and there, and where were the muslims? Still nowhere? Now that the muslims are growing in numbers they want to claim the islands to themselves? Why?

hahahaha. You probably went to the school of Jihad and learned your islamic terrorist history there. Fact is, every knowledgeable professor of ancient Asian history knows that the Philippine archipelago was animistic or pagan worshipers up to the time the Spanish invaders arrived and documented the island's way of life and culture. Islam was the religion of the minority otherwise the whole country should have become muslim by now. Compare to Arabia which used to be pagan at the time of Christ.

You must be a professor of ancient history or perhaps have a doctorate in archeology to say that? NOT! You'd love to say anything just to satisfy your glaring ignorance and make others ignorant just like yourself. You're like a gossip column churning miles and miles of empty gossip to get attention from empty headed fools like you. I got news for you, facts-based Archeology proves a millenium of Israeli history and existence in the entire territory! Let's see you gossip your way out of that.

I won't go into your argument but that is probably what the chaldeans and arabs were saying as they were harassing and scorning the Hebrews returning to their land after the Babylonian captivity, as the Jews under Nehemiah were rebuilding the city walls albeit a bit shoddily due to the constant raids and attacks by both arabs and chaldeans. They have always wanted to covet this land which God gave the Israelites as a legacy but the truth is, it only prospers when the real owners are around.

the undisputed truth is that KHAZARS are not semites, palestinians (muslims, christians and jews, who lived in palestine before 1948) are semites. so the khazars should get the fuck out!

In whose opinion? Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they don't understand.
