You are talking about ethnic cleansing?
The Arab people have every right to live in their own land.
After World War II, Britain, in agreement with other world powers, created two Countries out of the British Protectorate that was, at that time, called Palestine. One of the countries was Israel and the other was Palestine. Much of the land which was given back to the Jewish people hand long been unproductive desert. In the fulness of time the newly arrived Jewish immigrants, many of them survivors of concentration camps, through back-breaking labor and under constant guerilla attacks by the PLO returned the desert to blooming gardens of fruits and vegetables. In the beginning, The local Palestinians and the Israelis got along quite well. But the rabid Islamic terrorists, even then, vowed that they would not rest until every man, woman and child of Jewish descent was driven to their deaths into the sea. They vowed ethnic cleasing of the whole middle east. And of course their terroristic attacks continue to this day. The Israeli's did not start the violence. They even, at first, tried to respond by diplomacy. But when children in schools are bombed to bits and the elderly in the homes and sysnogogues are bombed to bits no matter what you try to do, then self defense and one's right to survive kicks in and violence is returned for violence. All the Palestinians have to do is admit that Israel has a right to exist unmolested and they can then get on with the business of mutual support. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem. bybee
