Yadda,
Quote:No it isn't.
Now show me the innocent Arabs.
I understand you've only really looked at the last few years of this conflict Yadda, so therefore you consider the Arabs to be the aggressor. But surely in 1948, the Arabs were innocent no? After all, they were just sitting in their homes, when all of this was thrust upon them. What were they guilty of? Other than perhaps being a little too naive to realise what was waiting to befall them?
Remember, Hamas and suicide bombing didn't come into existence until the mid to late 1980's, so for about 40 years, surely they were fairly innocent victims in all this? Yes eventually it got too much and they went to extreme measures to respond to what they'd been living under for so long...
Quote:It was the world community which decided to give the Jewish people a homeland again, in that location.
Actually the world community offered Uganda, Australia and a few other places, the Zionists rejected every single one. Either way, the "world community" has no right to remove a people from their land, and place another people in it. Would you accept that from the "world community"? Or do you only recognise it's authority to resettle/transfer entire nations when it suits you?
Quote:One party rejected co-existence on an equal basis, within a Jewish homeland.
Actually the Zionists rejected every single partition solution offered, since most of them gave a larger % of the land to the much much larger Arab population. When the U.N plan offered them a hugely disproportionate amount of land, of course they accepted, who in their right mind wouldn't? And what much larger majority would accept it? You're arguing against the very laws of human nature here.
Tiny minorities will of course accept an equal share of the land, and overwhelming majorities will never accept sharing their land equally with a tiny minority... It's just logical.
Quote:That being so, those particular Arabs could have been reabsorbed into their own ancient homeland(s).
Although it's true some Palestinian Arabs have traceable ancestry in other parts of the Middle east, the vast majority do not. And DNA testing has shown that most Palestinians predate the Arab arrival, indicating they are the descendants of inhabitants of the land whose history there stretches back much longer than 1300 years (as if 1300 years wasn't enough).
Quote:But they, and surrounding Arab nations refused to 'accommodate' that solution.
When you can state honestly you wouldn't mind being "re-absorbed" into other lands, if someone decided they wanted yours.. then I'll consider that argument.
Quote:Hence the present strife.
That's right.. the present strife is all the result of the Palestinians selfish refusal to hand their house keys over to the Zionists, get up and walk off into the desert... how self-centred of them.
Quote:A problem, which will be 'resolved' [to the the Arabs satisfaction] when local surrounding Arabs have successfully slaughtered all of the local Jewish people, those currently living in the state of Israel.
It isn't going to happen.
When they vacate the houses/land they are squatting in, and go back to their homes in NY, London, Russia, Lithuania etc. yes, then it will be resolved.
Until then, the suffering, on both sides, will linger... and the Christian nutcases such as yourself will be on the sidelines, eagerly awaiting their fulfilled prophecies, taking great joy in the suffering of others....
