That argument is used by Holocaust deniers; they too claim to have the facts. The fact is Palestine accepted Jews when the US did not want to know them; when nazi Germany sought and tried to exterminate them. Israel is a classic story out of Aesops fables; not only did it bite the hand that fed it it then continued to murder the samaritan out of avarice and greed. That is the fact. Israel should be ashamed of itself.

I dare Bob Sheifer to interview this woman on face the nation! We need more real news. The sheeple are getting fleeced! America needs to stop sending military aid to Israel. Or also start helping Gaza. USA is guilty of this mess Wake up! I fear the Jews will stop at nothing to exterminate the Palestinian people. Israel is the new Germany of 1939. Why don't they see this? Stop shelling Civilians you war criminals! I'm weary from all this nonsense. Civilization is all but dead. humans suck

It is exactly as Ms. Bennis says. They think all of us have historical amnesia. The 'defense' claim is extremely transparent at this point. No one in the international community believes any of that garbage.

It's appalling how these haters can get up and demonize Israel, thousands of miles from the conflict. If this wench had rockets landing on her house, there is no doubt she would be screaming bloody murder, as would any of the idiots posting here that support this farce. It's pathetic that the Jewish people have to put up with the baby-murdering entity that is in Gaza, while any response is met with ire from the pseudo-intellectual left wing. Gaza will eventually self-destruct, here's to that.

LOL You can't claim it was a defensive campaign when Israel started the war! You say "international law" allows you to take the land because it was gained in a defensive campaign even though the UN has stated a 1000 times it was not & the land isn't yours, it made the borders the law & Israel still breaks it. Only in "Israeli world" where they make up their own laws has anyone dared to say Israel acts within the law. It is not & you are consistently condemned by international law for it. TRUTH!

Nope, according to international law, land won in a defensive campaign is not stolen. Yes, Syria and Jordan tried to dry us out by diverting the waters of the rivers flowing into the Sea of Galilee. This was a Casus belli, but it was not the cause of the six day war, since we managed to blow up their dams two years earlier. Today, Israel desalinates what it needs from the Mediterranean anyway, so we give Jordan water from the sea of Galilee by the peace agreement of 95.

According to International law they stole it, thats all that matter.
You also fail to remember (or just intentionally forget) Israel did alot to cause those wars. One of the big ones was diverting water from the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan river which caused major problems for both Syria and Jordan (and the ecosystem itself).
Isreal has also bombed dams or construction equipment for dams in both Syria and Lebanon.

"incorrect" would be an understatement to what you've just claimed. We took land mostly in defensive campaigns - claiming we "stole" it and demanding it back is exactly like you go to a casino, gamble, lose money - then demand it back. E.G. in 1967, we launched the preemptive strike against Syria and Egypt alone, as Jordan was considered benign. King Hussein was warned not to intervene, but he opted to bombard Jerusalem. So even Judea and Samaria were taken in a defensive campaign.

Peace for Israel maybe but not for the Palestinians, if they dont shoot you just steal more and more land.

Basically, the only message that needs conveying is: Don't shoot at us - there's peace. Shoot - we shoot back. That is all.
