You must be reading
Iran's current president Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad's "book", he is known to
re write history as of late.
lol
maybe you should hitch hiked to
Iran ,Ahmadinejad like zealos
ignorant people.
Let us examine the
truths here:
1) There never was a Palestinian state or a Palestinian
nation.
There are no Palestinian people, per se. Rather, these are Arabs
living in a region that historically has been called many things,
including "Palestine."
2) Israel did not go to war against a
Palestinian state and occupy
its land. Rather, Israel was attacked by six
Arab countries at once.
She defended herself, defeated her attackers, and
won the so-called
territories, not from the Palestinians, but from Jordan
and Egypt.
3) Jerusalem was never the capital of any state but Israel.
It was
certainly never the capital of a country that never existed. Why
should the Palestinians get any part of it? Because they want it?
Because they have terrorists?
4) Jerusalem, under the current
Israeli control, is a free and open
city. Israel, as a democracy,
guarantees freedom of religion within
its borders. Contrast this fact with
areas that have come under
Palestinian occupation. What percentage of
Christians have left in
recent years because they cannot stand the
harassment and
persecution?
5) Most Arabs living in Palestine
today are not indigenous to the
region. It was not until after the Jews
had changed deserts and
swamps into a productive and thriving land that
the Arabs started
migrating there. Arafat himself was born and raised in
Cairo, Egypt.
Did you know that?
The belief that giving the
Palestinians a state will bring peace is
a delusion.
Unless the
Arabs recognize and accept these truths, even if they are
given a state of
their own, and no matter how many agreements and
treaties they sign, they
will always feel wronged, cheated, and
forced into giving up what they now
claim is theirs. They will
continue to plot and look for an opportunity to
destroy Israel in
order to take back what they claim is theirs, especially
the younger
generation that has been brainwashed to hate the "occupying
enemy."
Whether there is a Palestinian state or not, there will be no
peace.
Only a massive and ongoing re-education of the Arab people to
these
truths will enable meaningful negotiations to begin, followed by a
lasting peace between Arabs and Jews. It is therefore critical that
everyone who has an audience, whether in print or other media, use
the
forum they have available to repeat these truths again and again
until
they reach the consciousness of those waging war in the Middle
East
