The majority of the citizens of the United States are Christians, but the United States also is a secular nation. Of course, to know that about Turkey, you'd have to have read some history, and, as we all know, history is a liberal arts field of study, and therefore of no interest to Greg Fretwell. Don't know about that. I've learned more about the history of the Middle East reading his posts than I ever learned in college. |

Maybe you should have taken some Technical courses. Then you would be well rounded. Engineers had to also take Liberal Arts courses. Then you would have some critical thinking skills. |

Greg simply dismisses much of the Jewish history in that area going back thousands and hundreds of years in order to present and promote the Arab point of view and he conveniently pays no attention to the roles of the Arabs in World War I and World War II, the fall of the Ottoman Empire and the division of Muslim lands. The Jews have been in the Holy Land for thousands of years, almost non-interrupted. Even after Herod's death, when Israel was divided up by the Romans, there were still Jews there, and there were Jews there under the Ottoman Empire. -- The new GOP credo: Hate the people who are being oppressed, love the people who are doing the oppressing. |

Still far from understanding it all but I know enough to realize that there's "history" and there's "beliefs". A lot of "history" is little more than the writing down of "beliefs," but I know you know that. In contemporary times, since you and I have been alive, the Israeli Jews have turned a desolate chunk of land into a modern, functioning democracy with thriving business, industry, agriculture, educational and research institutions and a military. The Palestinians, on the other hand, have done very little with the territory they control and their leaders seem to do little more than urge their people to be patient until the day they can push the Jews into the Mediterranean. The Israelis have been helped by benefactors abroad, but the wealth of Jews around the world pales in comparison to the wealth of the oil-soaked Arabs, who have helped the Palestinians eke out a survival but not build themselves a viable country. But, then, most of the non-oil-soaked Arab Muslim countries in that part of the world have not done much nation building for themselves. The rich live well, of course, but everyone else lives in squalor. The Muslim Arabs seem unwilling to turn on their leaders who do little but exploit them. -- The new GOP credo: Hate the people who are being oppressed, love the people who are doing the oppressing. |
