What did I say that isn't true?P F Tinmore, et al,
OK --- the claim is:
- gun in their face
- foreign money ring in their nose
- say that they cannot build a state
- they are incompetent
(COMMENT)Rocco, Rocco, Rocco, The Palestinians have an Israeli gun in their face and on the other hand they have a foreign money ring in their nose.
Then you repeatedly say that they cannot build a state because they are incompetent.
Where do you get that crap?
The Arab Palestinians started out at the very same point in the sovereignty and independence process as did the Israelis. The two parties made different choices. The outcome of the nation that each party has established over the last half century is the practical and tangible evidence and answer to: "Where do you get that crap."
This is a case where the parties could have a benevolent relationship, or --- a belligerent relationship. The extent to which "gun in their face" was an issue --- is based on the threat posed by the Arab Palestinian to the Israelis. The Palestinians have not made any effort to conceal the fact that they are in a jihadist and armed struggle with the Israelis.
The extent to which "foreign money ring in their nose" is an issue --- is based on the Arab Palestinian acceptance. This money is not forced upon them at gun-point. The Arab Palestinian can turn-down the money at any time.
Periodically --- Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas threatens Israel with disbanding his government or some portion of it. Palestinians living under Israeli rule are increasingly questioning whether the PA is truly looking out for their interests. What is different this time around is the threat to discontinue security coordination. There is no question that there is an increasingly unpopular attitude, as many Arab Palestinians feel the arrangement assists the Israeli military in control over the occupied territory.
The fact that the Palestinians, after a quarter century, still don't have full recognition of the state, is a epitaph to its competence.
Most Respectfully,
RThe Arab Palestinians started out at the very same point in the sovereignty and independence process as did the Israelis.
Rocco, you always start with a lie them form your conclusion based on false premise.
Palestine was born under British occupation. Britain (a long time colonialists and world superpower) landed in Palestine in full military gear and the Balfour Declaration in its pocket. Britain kicked the Palestinians to the curb and catered to the foreign Zionist agenda. Meanwhile the Zionists were importing foreign settlers by the boatload with the stated goal of creating a Jewish state in Palestine.
The Palestinians have been defending themselves from that aggression until today.
Israelis have been defending themselves since their inception. What's your point.
BTW, can you give me some examples of the Palestinians having defended themselves?
"Rocco, you always start with a lie"
Tinmore, 99% of what you say is a lie. You're ragging on Rocco because you simply cannot accept the truth.
