Guess your gods are the same...
I'm only going to explain this once, there is no systematic and calculated annihilation of Palestinians based on their ethnic status, as there is no forceful confinement of them to a few blocks in a city based on that, and if there were such plans, with all the mass destruction weapons Israel (and not only Israel) possesses all 3 million Palestinians would be dead in a couple of months.
As for "sick" in your case, I think "sick" is to accuse a nation witch has been through such atrocities as the holocaust in doing the same thing to another when the reality is far from it...[/quote]

Who are you trying to fool? and
Who do you think you are to tell me whether or not I should have the liberty to decide anything for myself. ( like genetic linkage to the ancient Hebrews, for example)
Noone, not even a biased individual like you might be, can really be foolish enough to believe that there would ever be an Israel today if it weren't for the billions of dollars and pounds of tax money that our governments confiscate from taxpayers to send to Israel.You'd be a fool to deny it; and I don't think you are. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know how a small nation like Israel gets the cash to defend itself against the whole Muslim world: not to mention the nuclear capability.
Also, according to your account of the Palestinian diaspora many Palestinians left out of their own free will. Why? Why? Why? Was Israeli kindness to them simply too overwhelming? Perhaps, for some strange reason, they were unhappy about being treated like second class citizens.
I happen to personally know Arab Americans who were thrown out of their homes before arriving in the U.S for no valid reason. The Israeli army came in. I am neither pro Israeli nor pro Arab. I am pro- fairness to all human beings, and extremely anti bullshit. I don't deny the right of Jews to live in Palestine, but I believe that the displaced Palestinians who are willing to seek a truly peaceful solution should have equal representation in the government as well as have a right to come and go when they please and where they please regardless of why they left. It is only reasonable that they have an emotional bond to what has been their ancestrial home for generations.There has been brutality and inhumanity on the part of both sides, but neither side should have the upper hand. There has to be a sharing, hand in hand.
And, with all due respect, if you think not agreeing with you is sick, you better get your own thoughts "examined." Maybe a dose of openmindedness would help.[/quote]
