How do the atrocities perpetrated by Palestinian terrorists justify the presence of Israeli settlements? If someone can answer this question I will never criticize Israel again.

If you can't, then I suggest you stop using the tragic deaths of your own people to justify taking other people's land.

How dare you people call her "self-hating" and a liar? If you listen to what she says and read her books--which I am sure none of you have--you will see that she wants Israelis and the world to see the injustice of the occupation. You are clearly closed minded people who care more for a country than for peace and justice.

Laughing when Syrians kill each other is NOT Anti-Semitism!!!!!

In 1977 Zohair Mohsin - PLO executive council member, said..... “It is only for tactical reasons that we carefully stress our Palestinian identity for it is in the national interest of the Arabs to encourage a separate Palestinian identity to counter Zionism, the founding of a Palestinian state is a new tool in the ongoing battle against Israel”

israel comprises less than 1% of the whole mideast. it has seen the presence of a jewish community for the past 3000 years. the heart of the conflict is the rejection of this right to exist in the land. if her enemies dropped their weapons there'd be peace next wednesday. however if israel dropped hers, she would be toast by tomorrow.

@tijan07 the arabs who chose to stay in israel have full rights and the best living standards in the mid east! yet majority of them do not have palestinian ancestry - ancestors came to israel for work during the major jewish return starting in the 19th C. this why the definition for refugee was reworked just for them in 1948 as being someone who had been in the country for just two years!!! they fled israel in coordination with arab attack on israel the day after it was formed according to law!

@constipatedart let me relieve constipation & bring some fact to your art. these lands not occupied. they never been allocated by UN to any group! look up multinational origins of "palestinians". under military since 1967 when all surrounding countries tried to wipe out israel. results of giving this land to PA control would be disastrous, as been evidenced by handover of Gaza. should be obvious when consider Hamas charter perogative kill jews! compassion needs 2 be balancd with look at big pic.

''A people with no land for a land with no people'' that was the original Jewish people´s slogan, a slogan that was violated and stained with blood by the sionist demons..

The occupation of Israel is supossedly ''preventive'' that means Israel can kill and devastate palestine for crimes that they still don´t commit.

After the foundation of the Israeli regime, there were relative peace, conflicts were light between ppl, but the sionist demons established there, and since then they´re responsible
