In general, which side do you support in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?

1984 has a point because i just read some of your posts aobut how Israle should be destroyed, i cant help but see you complety hate Israel, you know its possible to support your side with out wishing death to the other, you dont hear me saying this to you, i dont have any problem with you...other then what you are saying.

Nice use of emotive language. I never said Israel should be destroyed, nor did I wish death upon Israel. I simply said Israel doesn't have a right to exist, and there is a large difference.

you said wiped out, i just wasnt sure if i was spelling whiped or wiped so i wrote destroyed which means a very simular thing.

So anyway, why does it not have a right to exsist then? because going by the arguments i have heard, you could use them to conclude no country has a right to exsist.

Because it exists in place of another country, namely Palestine.

It's spelt 'wiped', by the way.

And before it was a Jewish state, it was Canaan, and the Canaanites are the ancestors of today's Palestinians. If you want to go back in history, don't just go back 2000 years and stop. Go all the way.

the sources i have seen say that The archeological record indicates that the Jewish people evolved out of native Cana'anite peoples and that the bible says they invaded. I guess its just a matter of which you want to belive.

And the Palestinians aren't? They may not have been founded on terrorism - but that's history which is centuries old and not even applicable to the current situation. The State of Palestine is far more involved with terrorism. It's even run by a party recognised by most nations and organisations to not only condone terrorism, but actively take part in it - Hamas.

So what, exactly, is your point in bringing up terrorism? Surely if support of terrorism was a reason to not recognise a nation as such, then Palestine would have less right to exist than Israel?

Do you agree that israel carry out terrorist acts?

I think the argument about israel having no right to be there is stupid. Why do you say that? Because britain took it away from palestinians and gave it to them? All countries have been made by war and the death of hundreds. very rarely is a country made on peaceful terms with everyone happy, in fact, i can't think of one instance. Israel has a right to be there like every other country in the world has a right to be there.

No it doesn't.

Israel was created because people felt sympathy with the Jews. No country should be a homeland for any religion.

There were already non-Jews living there and this is the source of the ENTIRE problem!!! :biggrin:

Thats a false argument seeing that less then half of the Jews in the world live in Israel, you are complaining because Israel has a Jewish majority, well suprise but most countries have a large majority of one religion and in Israel the majority is not even all that large at about 60%

So?

There is no need for a Jewish state. Britain has a Christian majority, but we are a not state designed to be a Christian homeland.

Just so.

Since there were already non-Jews living there, it's foolish to create a Jewish state, simply because the Torah says so.

I apologise, but that is absolute rubbish!

Firstly, Britain has a agnostic/atheist majority. Secondly, I don't think the Bible prophecies' about a Christian homeland, in the same way that the Torah does. Thirdly, and most importantly, Christians have not been persecuted over the thousands of years like the Jewish have been.
