P F Tinmore, et al,
My friend (P F Tinmore), let's put this to rest.
What contributions have the non-Jewish Palestinians made to peace and security in the Middle East in the last 64 years?
Now I know that the Israelis have develop the Energy Tower (inexpensive electricity) in that time. Israel has produced several Nobel Laureates (Medicine, Chemistry, Economics, Physics, Literature). It is key in the Medial Research world, biological pacemaker; DNA nana-computer detects cancer cells then releases combating drugs; stem-cell technology to regenerate heart tissue; pill-camera, tiny, examines small intestine; first full computerized diagnostic instrument for breast cancer detection; development of heart pump synchronization device.
It is immediately obvious that the Palestinian-American community in the US (estimated to be less than 200K) has worked hard to instill a sense of pride and achievement in their counterparts living in the Gaza; as well as, to improve the image, heritage and reputation of the Palestinian. And, in some cases, it has been a success. With the help of their US brethren, several hospitals, schools and Islamic Center mosques have been built in the Gaza Strip. There have also been some highly successful projects in the West Bank and Jerusalem.
Palestinians are recognized to be highly successful in the US. They assimilate well in nearly every sector they explore. I worked with one while I was in the military, and while I knew he was Arab, it was two years before I discovered he was Palestinian (1st Generation American). Pound for pound, the US version of the Palestinian contributes every bit as much to the economic success and security of America as any other immigrant culture (I am 2d Generation American - Sicilian).
However, their counterpart in the Middle East (Occupied Territories) (MEOT) have not been so successful. And that is a serious problem and probably a major contributing factor to the continuation of the conflict. If the MEOT Palestinian invested as much effort in the building of their nation as they show in valor, initiative, brilliance, and technical knowledge - skills - and abilities --- here in the US, the scene in the MEOT might be entirely different. They have the ability. They just need to refocus.
Most Respectfully,

(PREFACE)Do you mean like defending their country?
They've never had a country.
Maybe they should move to one, like Saudi Arabia?
You have been reading too much Israeli propaganda.
