Suggest, too, that "God gave us this land" is an equal part of the problem...God also gave the Normans Sicily, BTW. God tends to give away a lot of land, some of the same land to different people. 😂

THANKS! In quick read: Written 15 years ago. Don't disagree with parts at all; Palestinians helped set the stage early-on. IMHO, it's not the Nakba "myth" but post-Oct. 7. cf. Scott-Baumann: Shortest History of Israel & Palestine Khalidi: The Hundred Years' War on Palestine Kessler: Palestine 1936

AlanTalksSense, not sure what your're referring to that I wrote. Terrorism is wrong no matter who conducts it, but I definitely understand the "why" of 10/7 and Hamas' resistance. Israel's historical treatment of the Palestinians and now genocide, with US support, is wrong even more so.

Ah. But then we'd get Vance. And after Vance, Johnson. Not sure who is worse. Truly an unholy trio.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE PALESTINIANS. YES INDEED. THE U.S. IS ENTIRELY COMPLICIT IN THIS GENOCIDE.
