Just before I shipped to jumped school I was camping with my Dad. Sitting on top of a Montana mountain watching the sunset behind the next ridge he looked at me and said, "I can't beleive my son is crazy enough to jump out of planes." To which I replied, "I'm not crazy enough to be a jarhead."

So it was founded for Jews to have a home state which they once had long ago?

it depends on how you define "jews" . . .are you referring to racial Jews directly from the blood line of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob? It was to these that the Old Testament promises of the land were made.

Or are you talking about Jews who run the Zionist State of Israel which has nothing to do with the ancient Jewish people, but those who have descended from converts to Judaism.

Why do the Ashkenazi Jews run the show in Zionist Israel? Why are Jews descended from the ancient blood line of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob treated as second class, inferior people, not much different than the Palestinians are treated?

What does this secular Zionist State have to do with the ancient people of Isreal?

Very, very little.

The ones who have this state of Israel are not descended from the ones who once had it.

If they are not descended from the ones who once had it, on what basis do they have any biblical claim to it?

None whatseover.

Jewish Zionism was basically an offshoot of Christian Zionism which wanted to see a re-established Nation of Israel to usher in the end timese so they (the Chrisitan Zionists) could be raptured. They saw it as their duty to help God bring abouit what they thought was prophecy yet to be fulfilled.

Jewish Zionists who pushed for the creation of the state of Israel made no bones about it that they were going after ALL the land that David and Solomon ruled, from the Euphrates to the River of Egypt and the Mediteranian Sea. How do you think someone as an arab, hearing that this group intended to take over all that land and were engaged in terrorist acts to accomplish their goals, would respond?

I think we would see them doing what they are doing today . . resisting Israel, turing their tactics back on them.

The ones who run the state of Israel are by no means innocent, in fact they shoulder most of the burden of culpability for what is going on in the mid east.

Many christians think God arranged that.

In the bigger picture, those who think that are very, very few when all of Christianity is taken into account.

Some say Jewishness is a religion, not ethnicity.
I am trying to learn here.

It is a religion, an ethnicity, and a race . . . and now a secular movement. . . .


So, which "Jew" are we talking about really?

Apparently every other country in the world has a right to exist except Israel...

Yep, us poor Jews shouldn't have the land of our forefathers...we shoulda been smart enough to run for the furnaces and gas chambers of the concentration camps and rid the world of all it's troubles....after all if y'all got rid of the jews, you'd be rid of everything wrong in the world [/snarkiness]

Apparently every other country in the world has a right to exist except Israel, regardless of the circumstances surrounding its inception. Go back and dig through US history and from the French, British and Native American perspectives, we were terrorists too. Every bloody country on the planet has violent beginnings where the other side got their feelings hurt. Its called history.

Then we can apply that the Palestinians and the future Palestinian state.

[FONT=&quot] What gives you the right to take the Palestinian land, the land of their forefathers for thousands of years?

[/FONT]
And the chances that it is the land of your forefathers is extremely low. You are European, not Semitic. The vast majority of “Jews” today are not descendent from Semitic tribes, but from various European groups that have converted to Judaism over the course of history. 90% of Easter European Jews are descendent from some northern Turkish kingdom that converted in the 9th century. [FONT=&quot][/FONT]

The Palestinians along with every other Arab is far closer related to Abraham than most “Jews are” or you are. [FONT=&quot][/FONT]

[FONT=&quot] Germany is the one that did that, why no carve out part of Germany for the Jewish state? If anyone owes the Jews and should suffer for the holocaust it is the German people. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot] Why the Palestinians and every other Arab in the region must suffer for the mistakes of White Europe is beyond me. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]

[FONT=&quot] Get rid of Israel and we would be making a good start, but far from riding everything wrong in the world. [/FONT]

Here's an idea. Let the world community back out and let Israel and Palestine duke it out. Whoever wins gets to stay and everyone else can shut up and leave them alone.

Not to mention the palestinian people had a chance to have land and government of hteir own back when Israel was recognized by the UN, but they didn't want to participate in a democratic government...so the UN annulled their "right" to the land.


Gee...guess they shouldn't have looked that gift horse in the mouth eh?

EXCUSE ME?????

Jews are not entitled to the Land that GOD GAVE THEM????

Face it child, God gave the Land of Israel it His chosen, which are from SARAH'S WOMB not from the maid Hagar. God did NOT give Ishamel and his decendents Israel.

And since you are hell bent on trying to convey where they came from let's get it straight the first known people of Palestine where the Philistines, which are of GREEK origin, who were NOT anywhere near related to the Arab nation and who DAVID, a JEW, defeated. Also, the name Palestine is not even a country description but a REGION where there is no nation and state.

Just like your attempt at history about Sam Houston, you failed miserably about the history of Palestine.

As someone who is of Jewish decent and heirtage, you are beyond VASTLY mistaken to think I am not as close to Abraham as you.

no no they hide behind a veil of anti-zionism...it's more PC.
The Clinton legacy....political correctness.

Whatever happened to let your yes be yes and your no be no.

Or as my granddaddy used to say...calling a spade a spade.
