There's a genius statement. Terrorism goes back about as far as recorded
history.

Please cite figures showing that the Muslim population of Palistine (not the
world as a whole) has grown since 1948.

Says that as of the mid 1940s, there were approx 1 million Arabs in
Palestine (area including what what is now Israel).

Says that the current Palestinian population, not including emigrants
and long term refugee camp population in Lebanon & Syria, is 1,767,500
as of 1993.

There you go.


Invaders? They were legal immigrants who purchased land from Muslims
eager to sell.

No, they were not. Britian was charged with protecting Palistine from them.

Look, the Zionist movement was started back in the 1800s, long before
the British were handed their mandate in Palestine. It was funded by
some of the wealthiest families in the world at the time... ever heard
of the Rothschilds?


One could instead argue that the fundamental problem is the belief by some
that the Jewish State has a devine right to rule the lands God gave Moses,
but the fact is neither one is "the fundamental problem". The fundamental
problem is mans eagerness to murder everybody who disagrees with his own
often idiotic religeous notions.

Agreed- and that idiotic eagerness is readily fueled by ignorance. That
is why your largely fact-free posts convince me that we are very much on
the wrong track. The funny thing is that, like Navvie, you seem
convinced that you are well informed.
