TO WHOM DOES THE LAND OF ISRAEL BELONG??



An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.

A representative from Israel began: 'Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Moses: When he struck the rock and it brought forth water, he thought, "What a good opportunity to have a bath!"

Moses removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Palestinian had stolen them!

The Palestinian representative at the UN jumped up furiously and shouted, "What are you talking about? The Palestinians weren't there then."

The Israeli representative smiled and said, "And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech."

Didnt think about that much did you? Cos it was in Egypt, not Palestine..

Actually, it happened on the Arabian peninsula.

Smiting the rock, water coming forth.

FD,

"Who owns Israel?"

I take it your question relates to 'political' ownership of the land we know as Israel ???

That's easy.

Politics is, "the art of the possible".

Many people believe that the Jews have brought about, the impossible.

They have held their land [Israel], since 1948.

It belongs to the Jews.

Even better, todah rabah.

They weren't heard of before 1900 either, let alone in the time of Moses.

And in recent history, i.e. prior to 1967, the 'Palestinian' people did not exist. ....A 'Palestinian' people??? Were there ever a 'Palestinian' people, in recent history??? If so; Who was the king or president of pre-1948 Palestine? What was the Palestinian currency? What did the Palestinians trade? What was the capital of Palestine? Did they have a parliament and government? What were its boundaries? Who were its historic allies? Who were its historic enemies? What wars did it fight? Where are the artefacts and which museums house these artefacts? Who were its great statesmen?
