That's the default response of christians who want to distance themselves, heard it a thousand times.
Hello! Jews and Arabs are semitic people rooted in the Middle East, and no one questions that. Their difference is primarily religious and cultural after centuries of moving about. Yemeni are the same tribal people who have been killing each other for half a century. French Catholic and Protestants once butchered each other in the name of Christianity. We can also talk about the American Revolution, the Russian revolution, the Chinese revolution, Cambodia's Pol Pot, and a long list of people of the same gene, religion, country killing each other for fk sake...
That's why the killings need to stop. Just because everyone is doing it doesn't mean it's ok to continue. LOL And to use the excuse of the "Promised Land" is even more ridiculous as the "Promised Land" is promised to everybody, Jewish and Muslims. That's all I am saying.
This is where the contention is. All of the Muslim neighbouring states need assurance first from Israel that it recognizes Palestine and stop the occupation of Palestine. And they want Israel to give its assurance first before giving their assurance. And for the neighbouring states, for Israel to give its assurance is basically for Israel to give up all of is military power and become countries like Switzerland or Canada, leaving it vulnerable and at complete mercy at its neighbouring states and receiving no foreign power's military aid in any situation, pretty much surrendering its land to the neighbouring Muslim countries and losing their home again. That's unacceptable to Israel and that's unacceptable to any country in the world if it's ever in the position of Israel. So to maintain peace, it's really the neighbouring Muslim countries who need to recognize Israel first as an independent country first and leave it f*** alone. And from a geographical and territory integrity point of view, Gaza Strip should really be given to Israel in exchange for another equivalent territory land from Israel given to Palestine for compensation. This is something that was proposed by Bill Clinton during his time in office in order to resolve this conflict. It's not that bad of an idea. If you look at the map, with Israel being surrounded by Palestine on both sides with no way out, this is basically putting Israel under siege and guarantees that it can be attacked from all sides. If you look at any country in the world, there is not ONE country that's surrounded on BOTH sides of its sovereign land horizontally by the SAME country. So I can sympathize Israel for occupying Gaza strip even though it belongs to Palestine even though I don't agree with it. Like I said before, the only way to resolve this conflict is for everybody to leave Israel and Palestine the fuck alone!! This is an issue between Israel and Palestine and should be resolved by Israel and Palestine alone with no involvement from all those neighbouring Middle-Eastern countries, European countries, Russia, China, or USA. This would be a good start.
What's the Yanks' gotta do with it? Is the "Promised Land" promised to the Yanks too? I didn't read about that anywhere.
Agreed that Gaza should go to Israel in exchange for land adjacent to Lebanon and the West Bank, to give the state of Palestine access to the sea via Lebanon and Israel if peace can hold. While there's likely a unknown percentage of the concerned populations who'd agree to this in exchange for the recognition of Israel by the regional countries and globally, the problem is there are too many on both sides who have no interest in peace.
Well you'd think US had part ownership, they're certainly not backward in quickly shoving their cock in hard up Netanyahu's ass at the first instance. But I'll be fair, most of the cock shoving and cock licking originates from the do gooders Holy Rollers Bible bashers group and zionists who have infiltrated US politics. The average agnostic 'man in the street' is not interested in meddling in the middle east.
LOL Nice try! The whole point that Gaza is given to Israel in exchange for another piece of land to be given to Palestine is to make Israel's sovereign territory to be whole. What's the point of giving Gaza to Israel only to see it being surrounded again on the other side by carving out another piece on the side to be given to Palestine? LOL Israel would be surrounded on both sides again from Palestine. How would you like it that Mongolia occupies Shanghai makes it its own sovereign territory so it can get access to the sea and leaves China sandwiched in the middle between two sovereign territories of Mongolia and is able to attack China from both sides? No the only land that Palestine can have is any portion of Israel that's adjacent to Palestine so Palestine gets to expand its territories into part of Israel and that's it. And besides, why does Palestine needs access to the sea? It already has access to a sea, the Dead Sea right on its border with Jordan! Isn't that enough? Access to a sea is not a guarantee to prosperity. Look at Sri Lanka! And yet many countries are completely inland, surrounded by multiple countries on all sizes and have zero access to any waterways and they are quite affluent. Switzerland, Austria come to mind and they are not even resource-rich. How well a country does economically depends largely on how efficiently and effectively they use the resources they have, aka making lemonade out of lemons. No country is perfect.
hard up Netanyahu's ass? What??!! Whatever you are saying, all those Middle-Eastern Muslim countries do the same with Hamaz.
