Palestinian identity ?

[Shusha]

There weren't many Jews there at the time.

So what? Do only majorities have rights?

Of course not. Everybody had the same rights.

 

[Shusha]

Of course not. Everybody had the same rights.

Then there is no need to ever mention that the Jewish people were a minority. Stop it.

 

[montelatici]

There are no "Jewish people" there are people of different races and ethnicities that practice Judaism. Just as there are people of different races and ethnicities that practice Mormonism or Christianity or Islam or Hinduism.

And if every Muslim converted to Judaism, global beheading would be reduced overnight by 100%.

They weren't mentioned. They were an equal part of the whole without distinction.

To be fair, only we Christians in our liturgy reject violence, you people, Muslims and Jews, have violence written into your religious laws.

Ummmm no.

Drug cartels in Mexico have a niche market in beheadings that rivals Muslims.

And they're probably Catholic...

It was Britain who separated them out as part of its colonial project. This was against what the Palestinians wanted.

But you never hear that the Catholics are killing their own people.

Of course not. All the headless bodies in Mexico scarcely warrent a post.

Irrelevant to my point. My point was that ALL peoples have rights, not only majorities. If you agree with me (and you said you did), then there is never a need to mention that the Jewish people were a minority ever again. Stop it.

How many people have Islamic Tatars beheaded people, blown up, or shot up the place?

I think we're talking more of a racial issue, rather than strictly a religious one.

Bureaucracy does not create peoples or nations.

Does it not? That's Zionist Israel screwed then.

pftttt Your'e funny.

We know who has hard time to create a nation out of an amalgamation of tribes Let's give Palestinians some more time to decide whether they're Syrians, Egyptians, Canaanites or even the 'real Jews'.

The Zionists had this question already solved some 2,600 years ago...we still don't know whether the new Palestinian identity will stand the test of time. Doesn't seem so with the lack of distinct language or culture.

Then why did the Palestinian Jews take part in the Zionist activities?
I'm talking about the pre-Zionist communities.
They were teachers in the Zionist schools, they wrote in the local Zionist Hebrew newspapers, and even wrote songs rejoicing the gathering of the diaspora - proclaiming 'Time has come'.

There were Palestinians who wanted self determination in the land - they were Jews. There were also Palestinians who wanted no independent Palestine, but it to be a part of Syria.
The problem between Jews and other Palestinians didn't start with the Zionist immigration, the population was divided and sectarian before that. It's the ME, not the Disneyland You imagine.
