We don't give them the same opportunity. We give Israelis billions and Palestinians almost nothing.

This thread wasn't about a solution to the conflict, anyway. It was about refuting the notion that Jews were returning to their homeland as some sort of moral right.

Actually it is the exact same opportunity our ancestors had. The Americans, and British soldiers before them, were technologically superior to the Native Americans.

Nothing is different.

I don't understand the claim of "moral right" any more than you do.

It is an irrelevant concept in this situation.

The only concept of importance is power, force, and violence. That is how this situation will be solved, not "moral rights".

Yes, this solution is a classic one in the annals of human history.

Well, I contend that the concept of the thread is irrelevant.

It's historical clarification. If you wish to insist that Israel has a right to exist because Israelis reclaimed their homeland you've been corrected.

The matter of a cleaning up this current mess is a different discussion.

That's what I've been saying. Arguing this in the arena of morality is pointless. Neither side has a claim to the moral high ground.

Forget about that and choose a favorite for reasons outside of morality.

I do not claim that. No country has a "right to exist".

The only thing that matters is their willingness to fight for their continued existence. Israel has that in spades.

Google "Khazaria" for a bit of enlightenment.
I did. Pretty interesting.

I also decided to search what happened to the Hebrews. There's a theory out there that says that the Pashtuns in Afghanistan are the actual descendants of the Hebrew people that surrendered Judaism for Islam. Also interesting.

Even though you clog this board with bullshite, thanks for the enlightenment. Good day!
