[dylanredefined]

Or we could take the arabs and dump them in antartica .Just as possible
probably more so as they dont have nukes .Israel isnt going anyway get over it.

Antartica ? Is that very small paintings or an antipodean knocking shop ?

Wasn't it "mene mene tekel upharsin" - number number weight division?

This was then conveniently interpreted by a Holy Man to mean what you said.

That's the problem with all of God's utterances. They require some sort of 'holy man' to interpret them.

Forgive my ignorance but when was the last time, historically, that Jews lived in the place now known as Israel, prior to 1948?

There have always (since the time of Joshua) been Jews living in and around those lands now known as Israel, and their numbers have been increasing ever since the late 1800's.

Thanks. So when were there more Jews than everyone else in Palestine?

I don't think that's happened yet. Or ever will.

Okay, cheers LL. I'll go and wiki the rest.

well historically that has never been the case tho there could be an arguement to say that the heavest concetration of semites was during the roman occupation (semites not jews there's a huge difference...) however there have been semantic peoples in this area since that poitn who have been christian/jewish/muslim almost in perpetutity, also there have been bediouin tribes to which are totally ignored by both sides... other than being marginalised and oppressed... but the modern isreali state is not founded from a semantic tradition with it's historical basis more on hospitality customs than religious dogma but from eastern european jewry and laterly also africa jewry and US jewry none of whom can ligitimatly trace their roots back to the semantic jewry who are indignious to the region.

It'd be like assuming that because there's a black famliy in brixton they should be given a chunk of land in africa because they have a common heritage with some one resident in angola... and have an equality of oppertunity and access by vitue of one facet of their heritage....

i'd hope no one would make such a claim outside of the BNP... thus any such claim of jewish right to land in modern isreal should realistically be viewed in the same manner....
