The "mess" we are in is a result of appeasing Saudi Arabia, nothing more.
Money is a powerful force.
In the 1800's I have seen the figure of around 27% Jewish

Herzl didn't write Judenstaat until 1896.
The dissemination of Herzl's ideas led to the rise of Zionism as a political ideology. The Jewish population of Palestine would have been relatively insignificant before they began immigrating in droves.So what,
Sorry, Skeeter; I'll join a discussion whenever I damn well please.again Kalam until you start reading the biased western coloring books by tourists you will not be able to join in a discussion.
I don't particularly care if you consider yourself "pro-Zionist"; you defend Israeli oppression. The specific circumstances surrounding the creation of the aggressor-state also aren't of great concern to me. I want see it disappear regardless of who played the largest role in bringing its existence about.Further if you have been reading my posts you will see that I am not pro-Zionist. The Zionists would have the whole world believe that Zionist built Israel and that is far from the truth.
I don't doubt it.You should try reading Abba Eban's book, talk about self-righteousness, Mr. Eban would have us believe Israel was created through nothing more then the clever legal arguments of the Zionist.
Hitler did his part in the creation of the Jewish state. In addition to his obvious offenses, the bastard's actions have ensured that Western minds are suffused with collective Holocaust guilt to this day. Well over half of the people with whom I've discussed the issue have mentioned the Holocaust as if the Jews' tragedy in Europe justified the nakba in Palestine.Kalam, your post is useful to show how some can only see Zionist, Zionism followed the work of others that began laying the foundation for the rise of Israel, the hard work was began by others, Zionist followed, they did not lead.

I haven't found anything of much significance that hasn't already been covered in Islamic texts.

Saudi Arabia???
Do more than a google search and much of what we assume of Israel based on the media falls like a house of cards.
One of the most informative books I own is, "The Other Arab-Israeli Conflict, Making America's Middle East Policy from Truman to Reagan" by Steven Spiegel.
Very detailed, excellent book, I need to find more books about the specific policy of our government. After reading the book one can relate to bits and pieces in the news as well from other sources.
I am a bit disingenuous in implying it is solely the appeasement of the Sunnis that is the source of the problem but it sometimes helps to rile folks.
Appeasement is the problem, politicians are easily influenced by Oil, Saudi Arabia as we all know is a huge source of oil with many corporations developing the oil reserves, the money involved in oil controls our foreign policy. Saudi Arabia states Kosovo must be Moslem hence Clinton makes Kosovo Moslem, Saudi Arabia is demanding the partition of Israel hence that is our policy.

What do you believe are some of the common misperceptions that would not hold up to scrutiny?
I don't find this to be a complicated issue. Now there has been a lot of smoke blown on this issue designed to confuse the people and promote an agenda...ah...propaganda if you will. You can read smoke 'til the cows come home but it does not change the few basic facts that make up this issue.

Is that what your last driveway client pointed out about your concrete work, day labor?
No, that's what your drug dealer tells you, stoner.
you don't know him, I assure you. He's jewish and hates zionists. You'd have been curbstomped long ago.
I see Israel as one of the great outposts of democracy in the world, and a marvelous example of what can be done, how desert land can be transformed into an oasis of brotherhood and democracy. Peace for Israel means security and that security must be a reality.
The biggest misconception is that the Arabs political leaders and the political movement in Palestine originated as a grass roots organization within Palestine to free Arabs from Jewish oppression.
Another whopper is that the Arabs had to flee from the Jews in 1947 when the war for independence began.
Maybe the biggest misconception is that Jews and Arabs cannot live together in peace.
Another is that Jews mistreat Arabs, history shows Arabs benefited living in close proximity to Jews.
Biggest misconception is how the Nation of Israel was reborn, when, how, and by whom.
I believe that is a well documented fact.
I don't believe that. I believe in the "one state" solution. I believe that this is propagated by the Israeli side to justify actions against the Palestinians.
About 30% of Palestinians believe in the one state solution which is high considering that no public officials mention this option. Well, there has been some mention popping up lately. Hamas has stated the desire for one state with equal rights for all but Fatah is still in the two state camp.
This varies from time to place. It is true that the Jews brought new money and ideas to Palestine, however this prosperity was kept away from the Palestinians as much as possible. Land ownership policies were that any land transferred to Jews would never be transferred back to Palestinians. The ratchet effect of this policy would eventually lead the Palestinians to own nothing. Another policy is that employment for Palestinians was limited to low pay manual labor.
The Arab population shows a remarkable increase since 1920, and it has had some share in the increased prosperity of Palestine. Many Arab landowners have benefited from the sale of land [to Jews] and the profitable investment of the purchase money. The fellaheen are better off on the whole than they were in 1920. This Arab progress has been partly due to the import of Jewish capital into Palestine and other factors associated with the growth of the National [Jewish] Home. In particular, the Arabs have benefited from social services which could not have been provided on the existing scale without the revenue obtained from the Jews.
I believe that is a well documented fact.
When will you become familiar with the facts?
I don't believe that. I believe in the "one state" solution. I believe that this is propagated by the Israeli side to justify actions against the Palestinians.
You can't even tell us who so-called Palestinians are. Israel's actions constitute self-defense against Muslim barbarians, which is entirely within the law of armed conflict and the UN Charter.
Israel is a sovereign state. There will never be a one-state solution that permits more Arab savages to overrun Israel.
