Israel-Palestine conflict

[Dilange]

The Palestinians were living there much before the Balfour Declaration was even thought of.

Yeah and the Jews were living there long before the Palestinians even came into existence.

I would ask for proof but Im expecting ancient scripture.

[Nicer potlimitomaha]

Yeah and the Jews were living there long before the Palestinians even came into existence.

I would ask for proof but Im expecting ancient scripture.

The dead sea scrolls.

[Ralkovia]

Yeah and the Jews were living there long before the Palestinians even came into existence.

I would ask for proof but Im expecting ancient scripture.

Western Wall, Jewish Temples dating back to the early 2nd millenia, The fact that the Phillistines were known as "Sea Invaders." etc.

There is physical proof besides ancient scripture that the Jews were in Israel prior to the Palestinians, but that doesn't mean the land belongs to them anymore than Mexico belongs to the Mixtec and Aztec people.

No, the land would belong to them after the Aztecs came back and took it back. Just like Israel did.

The only argument that you have would be "The Invader Became the Occupier because he lived there long enough."

So the solution seems to be, wait.

[Xathranaar]

The Palestinians are the Jews that were living there.

[Ralkovia]

Yeah and the Jews were living there long before the Palestinians even came into existence.

The Palestinians are the Jews that were living there.

Not really. They stopped being Jews the second they started being Muslims.

[Tlaceceyaya]

The Palestinians are the Jews that were living there.

Not really. They stopped being Jews the second they started being Muslims.

Jews are people of the jewish faith and/OR people of the jewish ethnicity.

[Aeken]

Make Palestine, but don't go on the 1967 borders. Israel should get more leverage on their side, only because its roughly fifteen miles across in the stripl that links the north and south.

[Nicer potlimitomaha]

9 mile not 15 mile.

That's what Hitler said to destroy the whole idea of CONVERT OR DIE that was the standard anti-semitism in Europe's history.

[Catan]

Take away US military aid, pull all troops from the region. Blockade the region until only one state remains. Move in, buy oil.

[Aeken]

9 mile not 15 mile.

That's worse. I was afraid I'd get that wrong. I just remember a little bit from some texts.

[Ralkovia]

Not really. They stopped being Jews the second they started being Muslims.

Jews are people of the jewish faith and/OR people of the jewish ethnicity.

Weren't you one of the people who just said if you consider yourself X than you are X.
The Palestinians don't consider themselves Jewish. Neither are they Jewish.

[Catan]

Weren't you one of the people who just said if you consider yourself X than you are X.
The Palestinians don't consider themselves Jewish. Neither are they Jewish.

Nevertheless, they owned the land before the Jews started immigrating in 1880 from Europe, and then proceeded to wage a war of terror against the British to secure their own state, and then confiscated the property of victims of war.

By your logic, Israel belongs to the Caananites.

THe Palestinians NEVER owned the land.First it was cavemen, then Canaanites, then Jews, then Romans, THe Byzantines, then Arab kingdoms, then Ottamans, then Britian, then Israel. THere was NEEVER a Palestinian state and unless the Palestinians retake Jordan, there will never be one again.

Canaanites no longer exist do they?

Difference being is that the Jews were forced out of their homes by the Romans. Many of the descendants of the Aztecs, Mixtecs, Olmecs and the Mayans still live on ancient ancestral lands in Mexico and still speak the language.

Fucking Europeans. We can't win. Can we?

[The God-Realm]

Canaanites.

[Costa Alegria]

You don't live in a country where a leading academic at a university refers to all non-indigenous peoples as "guests".
