No, because they can be put back to wherever they came from. Palestinian people came from Palestine. "Israelis" came from Ethiopia, Europe, etc.
The Zionists have ruled Israel for over half a century. By now, pretty much everyone who are Israeli have only known one home which is Israel. So the question begs, at what point does the land become theirs? Perhaps in another half century? My guess is that if the Israelis are in the land another 10,000 years you will still have those who claim that the land should be given to the Palastinian people.
Originally posted by twhiteheadI don't think anyone is stupid enough to think the Israelis will just willingly pack up and leave their homes. It's my guess that it is an accepted and unspoken assumption that they will all be driven from their land forceably, no matter the cost.
Its not going to happen. So do you accept that there will never be peace? Do you honestly think that your desire to have a particular piece of land that you feel attached to is really worth never ending war?
As I have said in another thread, these fora have a problem. One individual with a mental problem is being enabled to occupy an undue amount of attention.
Scherzo has only one aim here -- to get attention. If you recognize the problem, do not respond to or dally with scherzo. He has a histrionic personality disorder and folks with that disorder do this sort of thing to feed their need for drama that centers around themselves.
Note how many threads he either starts or hijacks and makes about himself and his "cause."
Note also how he never is persuaded by any set of facts or any argument you make -- he is impervious to reason, he comes back again and again with more and more irrational, indecent, unacceptable ranting.
His posts are rife with contradictions that can only be lies. But so long as he gets folks tied up with his posts, responding to him, he's feeding on it, fat and happy to be validated and enabled.
just ignore scherzo and watch the problem go away.
certainly it is a given that nothing useful is accomplished here by arguing over the Middle East situation. It stinks -- and none of us know of a cure that makes sense to decent people.
Scherzo isn't a decent person, he's a sicko. I recommend we stop enabling him.
we can do that by ignoring him and leave the Middle East to solve its own problems.
We have enough in our part of the world to talk about.
Watch what happens if no one takes scherzo's bait -- the worst thing one could do to the poor slob would be to lock him up in solitary and ignore him. With only himself for company, he'd simply fade out like a shadow at noon.

Most Jews in Israel were born in Israel hence they came from Israel.
According to a couple quick sources that's up to 65% of the non-Arab population.
So 65% of the people you would be deporting came from Israel.
About 35% were born to parents who were actually born in Israel.
So you'd be deporting a lot of people who came from Israel.

Originally posted by ScriabinYou may be right, but for me he represents an aweful lot of folks. In short, his "sickness" is what perpetuates the problem on both sides. If nothing else, it is a testament as to the inability of reason to "fix" the problem. Something more is needed. This being the "spirituality" forum, may I suggest the problem is spiritual in nature?

Originally posted by whodeyit certainly has that aspect to it, I would agree.

it is not, of course, the whole story, either.
Originally posted by scherzoYou are so predictable. You label a source as "pro-Zionist" and hence you believe they must be lying.

You don't present any numbers or sources of your own or even an argument.

Originally posted by ScriabinYou say this with the knowledge that the whole affair is complicated. Of course, the quesiton begs as to spirituality issues causing such a convoluted mess to begin with.

Originally posted by whodeyI don't believe spirituality issues started it at all.

Issues related to spirituality or religion are usually cover for political and economic motives -- the will to power.
Just another reason to distrust organized, established religions. They talk about the spirit, but they inhabit the flesh in the here and now and act accordingly.

There are "zionists" (however you define that term) that are racists and liars therefore anything anyone you can paint with that term can be handily dismissed as a lie without any real argument or facts presented on your part.
Convenient.
If someone used your own logic against Palestinians you'd probably be furious- and you'd be right to be. The problem is, you can't look in the mirror.
