Thanks,

I put it like this one time: if the Jews
|
|
|
|
|
laid
| | | | down
| | | | | | their arms today, the Arabs around them
|
|
|
|
|
would
| | | | | | | | destroy
| | them. If the Arabs laid down their arms
|
|
|
today,
| | | | there
| | would be peace. That tells you a lot
|
|
|
|
|
about
| | | | the
| | | | | | situation. Evidence of this fact is that
|
|
|
every
| | | | time
| | Israel makes a peaceful overture, they get
|
|
|
bombed
| | | | some more.
IAN
Let's see if I understand what you are
|
|
|
|
saying.
| | | | If a
| | | | gang of cut throats
from Europe come over and kick you and all
|
|
|
|
your
| | | | | | | | neighbors out of your
homes and busnesses you should do nothing
|
|
|
|
about
| | | | it.
| | | | As long as the cut
throats do not go after you, you should
|
|
|
|
leave
| | | | them
| | | | alone. Is this what
you are telling me?
Also, you still have not shown me where the
Arabs/Muslims have attacked
Americans or US interests prior to the
|
|
|
|
partition
| | | | of
| |
CHIP:
Well, that's not what happened, for one. The
|
|
|
Jews
| | | | | | bought the land the lived on when they came to
"Palestine." The Muslims didn't seem to care
|
until
| | the numbers grew, and then the tensions grew.
|
|
|
| | | | | |
I already responded to your last request.
|
|
|
Muslims
| | | | | | weren't organized enough, nor did they have
|
|
|
the
| | | | means
| | prior to the last century, to attack the U.S.
|
|
|
or
| | | | its
| | interests. The only other comment I made on
|
|
|
this
| | | | was
| | that you should avoid an oversimplified post
|
|
|
hoc
| | | | argument.
IAN
The Jews did buy some land and that is all well
|
|
and
| | | | good. Then the UN
partitioned Israel against the will of the
Palestinians. The
Palestinian leaders told their people the Jews
|
|
were
| | | | going to slaughter
them in the hopes of raising an army or
|
|
rebellion
| | | | and the Palestinians
were stupid enough to believe them and fled.
|
|
Then
| | | | the Israeli's would
not let them return and passed laws making these
properties Israeli
lands.
Why are you supporting America's wars for
|
|
Israel?
| |
CHIP:
Let's stay on topic, Ian. This is about the
|
motive
| | for Muslim aggression toward everyone on the
|
planet,
| | except for other Muslims, often only of the same
|
sect.
| | Other countries have problems with Muslim
|
extremists
| | that had nothing to do with supporting Israel.
|
Not to
| | mention that many Muslim countries couldn't really
care less about Palestinians. At least you admit
|
that
| | the Palestinian leaders attempted to instigate
fighting.
As to your last comment, I don't support America's
wars for Israel. I don't support a lot of things
|
that
| | America does in the world. The only thing I've
|
said
| | is that Israel is not the reason for Muslim
aggression. Muslims are commanded in their holy
|
book
| | to take over the world and make everyone submit to
Islamic rule. It's certainly not all because of
Israel's existence. As I have pointed out, Muslim
aggression against everyone else in the world
|
started
IAN
Well let's stay on topic Chip! I started this
thread and it started as
the modern history of Zionism. I got as far as 1885
to perhaps 1900 and
why Jews were discriminated against. If you and
others don't agree that
the Jews were discriminated against because they
were money lenders and
merchants and because they dressed funny and hung
together, I have no
problem with that. I looked into this after a
friend asked me 'Where is
Palestine'.
I'll be away for a few days so I'll continue when I
return next week.

CHIP:
Uh, correct me if I'm wrong, but the topic is
basically, why are Muslims attacking the U.S. and
Israel? My contention is that it's because they are a
bunch of wackos and would be doing so whether Israel
was in Palestine or not.
If you want to tell me why Jews were persecuted in
Europe, go ahead. It's not going to help your argument.
