    The Jews are Semites as are many of the people in the Middle East and North Africa. It became a racist reference towards the Jews in Europe.

    "I don't know but I've been told...." you can make up some pretty raunchy lyrics for that little cadence tune, none I know printable here. :)

    What has Arab resistance, and later Palestinian resistance, gotten them?

    The Arabs/Palestinians should have accepted the UN plan in 1947.

    You can't partition a country if people have an unchecked "right of return."

    I might be wrong in this, but I think the biggest mistake the Israelis made, was that they didn't pay the Palestinians for the homes and properties they lost when they ran out of Palestine. Their rationale was that the Jews weren't compensated for the homes and properties confiscated by the other Arab nations.

    Had the Palestinians been given monetary compensation for what they lost at that time, would they have had any claim to Palestine today? I don't think so!

    Indeed.
    C'mon, there's no evidence Arabs were intending to complete the Holocaust.

    "If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea."
    - Sheikh Hassan el-Bana, head of the Moslem Brotherhood, August 1948

    source: AIM TO OUST JEWS PLEDGED BY SHEIKH; Head of Moslem Brotherhood Says U.S., British 'Politics' Has Hurt Palestine Solution - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

    Does that not count, from your perspective?

    The so-called "right of return" is a croc.

    Yesterday, the jew state warned they will be destroying more high-rises in Gaza... and they have.

    No, it was never Arab intent to kill all the Jews.

    These sorts of claims only make a peaceful solution less likely.

    Apparently, if you shoot rockets at Israel from tall buildings, the IDF will take your tall buildings away.

    I don't think Hitler intended to kill all the Jews either, just the ones in Germany / territory he occupied. Likewise, I don't think the Arabs wanted to kill all the Jews, just the ones in the Middle East. What's the appreciable difference in their positions?

    ETA: I'm genuinely interested in your answers. I'm not trying to be a jerk here or argue through questions, just want to understand your perspective.

    They probably would, if they could but the money doesnt go to Hamas. It is spent through UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (Unrwa), but even they have not received anything yet.

    Its sad that the situation in Israel has escalated to this point (again), but it seems to be a part of the usul cycle of peace and war in those parts.

    I doubt you know where to find it and how to interpret it!

    Ironic post.

    You're right... but it's still ironic.

    I had to turn off FOX news today... very little real reporting and mostly propaganda.

    After 75 years of war in and around Israel , I'm weary of BOTH sides. The one thing both sides do is try and go back to who threw the first stone and blame them for all that has followed. This attitude precludes ANY resolution.

    I am all for supporting both sides with weapons and ammo until they are tired of shooting at each other.

    Yes - the balance of power is far too unequal - we need to balance the field by giving the Hamas/Hezbollah better military technology.

    Exactly - who did what first in a blood feud is irrelevant as both sides have done bad things - and have been for decades.

    Supporting one side over the other only serves to prolong the blood feud. Give the Palestinians better technology will balance the field - making the IDF think twice before committing more atrocity.

    Those explosions you're seeing are the intercept missiles detonating. You may notice that not one of the rockets (which I presume are the other bright lights) were stopped by an explosion of a intercept missile

    Iran arms Hamas.

    Iran is allied with Russia.

    Russia is allied with and arms Syria.

    Yet... Putin is very friendly with the jew state which repeatedly bombs Iranian facilities in Syria with impunity.

    Oh... and btw... decades ago the jew state helped create Hamas to counter Russia's ally the PLO.

    You try to figure that mess out !

    Iranian attack by proxy on Israel... Welcome to the world of Joe Biden's lack of M/E foreign policy.
