Hebron settlers' tour 20.02.2010

A large group of settlers walk through the middle of the Old City of Hebron, protected by Israeli soldier during a settlers' tour on 20.02.2010. Settlers have started to tour the Old City of Hebron every Saturday from last year. They go around the Palestinian Old City with many soldiers. Many of the settlers are armed. They disrupt the lives of Palestinians, often harrassing them on the way. Hundreds of settlers live in Hebron. They make the life of the Palestinians so unbearable that many left the Old City of Hebron.

The Truth is that the was a large Jewish community in Hebron for hundreds of years until the arab population brutally massacred them and ethnically cleansed the Jews from Hebron in 1929. (google it) It's good to see the Jews are coming back to their homes. Thank God for Israel!

Jews have every right to tour the Casbah in Hebron, where the Jewish Community of Hebron resided for centuries, until they were massacred by Palestinian murderers in 1929. I admire the courage of today's Jewish Community of Hebron. They are at the forefront of the struggle to preserve for the Jewish People this most important place in the Land of Israel. I salute them in their efforts.

@bigollameo EVERYBODY please see how he answered "yes" to my question of "So you're denying that massacres were carried out by the Moors and the Turks throughout the centuries against the Jews" You can see how leftists who want to destroy Western countries are covering up the crimes of Islam. 1660 1011 Cordoba Massacre, 1033 Fez Pogrom, 1066 Granada Pogrom, Fez Pogrom 1276

@ChasteRoue

Yes, I'd like you to start. I'd like you to show me that Jews had more reason to fear for their lives from Moorish Europe and the Ottoman Empire than they did from Catholic Western Europe and Orthodox Eastern Europe and Russia.

[ChasteRoue]

@bigollameo So you're denying that there were massacres carried out by the Moors and Turks throughout the centuries against Jews? Looks like you're the real asshole. Should I start naming all the massacres and pogroms?

@ChasteRoue

Finally, while I won't go into the other details about the tolerance practices of Moorish Spain and Turkey that far outpaced any (if at all) penchant for toleration which European Christendon held for the Jews, it's a bit of sore point that you'd call me out as holocaust denier. Pretty ridiculous.

Of course the holocaust happened, and we have only the memories and heart-breaking longings for 6 million souls to be here that are no longer.

Don't ever play that card again, asshole.

Further: In 638AD the conquest of Byzantine-held Jerusalem by Umar ibn al-Khattab took place, no different than any other group that decided to claim Jerusalem as their own. However, the Christian patriarch of Jerusalem at that time, Sophronius, had enacted the law that Jews were not allowed to live in the city. It was under Caliph Umar's rule that Jews were granted return to residence in the city they had been banished from since Hadrian of Rome's expulsion of Jews in 135AD.

@ChasteRoue

Again, totally disingenuous. The 638 BC conquest of Jerusalem was by BABYLON, an empire with it's own non-Islamic theology. However, King Cyrus of Persia - you know, from modern-day Iran - freed the Jews after defeating the Babylonians and issued the Edict of Restoration that ordered the rebuilding of the sacked Temple; Governer Nehemiah's stewardship aided such. Israel's happiness went down the tubes with Alexander's conquest of Persia (and Jerusalem), then Antiochus V's plundering
