Don't think for a moment that the Arab League doesn't have such an energy choke hold on the Western world that, if it wanted to, could being the UN to its knees and force Jihadist and Fedayeen goals and objects. The reason they don't is because to unleash peace, and with it, the Jihadist and Fedayeen, it not in their best interest for any of the Dictatorships and Kingdoms. What sounds like something that would bring peace and stability to the region, in fact, may have the opposite effect. And the Arab Power Brokers would rather have the Islamic Radicals, Jihadist and Fedayeen focused on the US and Israel than running loose, out of work and stirring trouble in their back yard.
Make that: learn
TWO things everyday.
The arab countries have the power to make the palestinian people end both their peaceful and armed struggle for their right to live in western Palestine and accept the WB and Gaza as their homelands.
The palestinian people are merely puppets in the hands of Egypt, Syria and SA and all their grievances and demands are kept alive only to to divert their own people's attention from their governments.
The idea that any attempt by the arab world to suppress the palestinian legitimate demands would be met with indiference (in the case of political and economic pressure) and deadly force (in the case of a military intervention) is nothing but a bizarre idea with no basis in reality.
How can mere pawns defy the will of their masters?
I also learned something here. I learned that there is a Western Palestine
No, you learned that historical homelands (or part of them) do not disapear into thin air when a racist country is created on them.
Toastman, let's try to clarify this whole issue of Israel's creation nullifying the right of the Palestinian people to live in Western Palestine once and for all:
FIRST EXAMPLE TO EDUCATE MY BUDDY TOASTMAN
The american plains are the historical homelands of the Sioux, Kiowa, Blackfoot, Comanche, Crow, etc, etc...
The annexation by the US through military force of that territory
DID NOT in any way end neither the right of plains Indians to consider it part of their homeland nor their right to live there.
Those tribes
LOST their right to live in american plains
ONLY when those native american tribes finally,
sincerely conceded defeat and accepted their homeland as part of the United States.
SECOND EXAMPLE TO EDUCATE MY BUDDY TOASTMAN
The american Southwest is the historical homeland of the mexican people.
The annexation by the US through military force of that territory
DID NOT in any way end neither the right of Mexicans to consider it part of their homeland nor their right to live there.
Mexicans
LOST their right to live in California, Texas, etc...
ONLY when the mexican society
genuinely accepted US sovereignty over the land and renounced to their right to live there.
THIRD (AND MOST IMPORTANT) EXAMPLE TO EDUCATE MY BUDDY TOASTMAN
Western Palestine, aka, Israel, is part of the Palestinian's historical homeland.
Israel's creation
HAVE NOT in any way ended neither the right of the palestinian people to correctly consider it part of their homeland nor their right to live there.
As long as the palestian people do not recongnize Israel's creation, that is, as long as they do not give up the ROR, they will still have the same right to live in Western Palestine today as they had in 1948 and Israel will still be a racial dictatorship that murders Palestine's indigenous ethnic group whenever they try to move about freely in their own homeland.
