Jayhawker - I am not blaming antisemitism - although there is a fair amount of it around here and in the discourse generally. However, if you want to understand what people are saying you have to understand where they are starting from. The baseline of most of the anti-Israel investive and the...
Please watch this if you wish to begin to understand the anti-Israel posters here and the anti-Israel folks generally. It explains the root of their opposition to Israel and their inability to deal with actual facts, especially those which contradict their predetermined beliefs.
Gahrib - No, Either you have never been to Israel (there is no Palestine and never has been) or Jordan (the Arab Palestinian State) or you are telling lies. Whichever, it really does not matter. The facts are the facts. Neither you nor Lyndon have provided any actual refutation of the facts, you...
Lyndon - Do facts bother you that much? You can confirm the facts I posted if you want. It is not really hard to do. If you find any thing you actually dispute, let me know and please cite your sources. Thanks
every day we here how poor the Arab Palestinians are, how they have nothing and are kept in poverty by the "occupation." But, although the lie is endlessly repeated it is not true.

Lyndon - you are making false assumptions. 1 there is no military occupation of anywhere by Israel. 2. Jews have lived continuously in Israel for 4,000 year. No one else may make that claim. As always facts matter. It would help if you could respect facts and stop relying on anti-Israel...
lyndon - i posted them - try reading the articles. Of coruse, it really does not matter what the terms of the offer were. No offer will ever be acceptable.
FearGod - No, but some of them are apparently rather misinformed. Facts matter. It is important to stick with the facts. The facts are that there have been numerous offers of peace given to the Arabs and they have all been rejected, or in the case of some, accepted and later rejected. ...
this article doesn;t add too much to the discussion, but it includes a map of the offer https://brokenspring.wordpress.com/2015/11/17/palestinian-leader-confirms-he-turned-down-israeli-peace-offer/
Lyndon - Abbas has made a total of ZERO offers of peace while serving his now 11 years of his 4 year term of office. His predecessor, the Egyptian who founded the Arab Palestinian movement, Yassir Arafat similarly made a grand total of ZERO offers of peace during his unelected tenure in office...
In a rare moment of candor, Abbas has admitted that he turned down peace and an Arab Palestinian state in 2008. The important thing to note is that the proposed deal met 100% of his demands. I wonder if he will ever get around to admitting he turned down a deal in 2013 which also would have met...
Jayhawker - except that Arutz Sheva tends to be accurate. If you read it over time, yo will see that it almost always is accurate. It has a point of view, but then, all Israeli media outlets have a point of view. They follow the British model.
O.K. Who is surprised? Who thinks that the sanctions are now going to "snap back"? Who thinks that there will be any reaction from the U.S. and what do you think that will be?

There were 265,000 Jews in Morocco in 1948 there were 2000 in 2014 and there are fewer today.
There were 105,000 Jews in Tunisia in 1948 there were 1,400 in 2014 and there are fewer today.
Jews do not live normal lives in either place, although Morocco and Tunisia have historically...
Please expect reaction of the world's media outlets, if any, to be muted. there will be no reaction whatsoever from the UN, the EU, the US, or any of the human rights organizations which are so quick to condemn others.

Yes. I would deny it. There is no policy to remove Arabs from Israel. there has never been such a policy. There may be a few idiots who say they wish to do so, but every society has idtiots and these idiots have no power and not prospects of every deciding policy. On the other hand...
The sad finality of the Arab ethnic cleansing of Jews from the Middle East. And, of course, they will not be satisfied until they ethnically cleanse Jews from Israel as well. That is their stated goal. the goal is not the creation of yet another Arab Palestinian state, it is the destruction of...
rosends : Israel is a 100% secular country. It is not theocratic in any way. That is why certain vaguely Jewish supposedly "ultra orthodox" groups do not support the state.
