This is very good news. I'm very happy for them, they should have their territory back. ;)
Dec 08th, 2010 - 12:35 am - Link - Report abuse 0It doesn't take much intelligence to look back and see that the current State of Israel is now firmly based on the Lands of Israel and Judah that belonged to Hebrews/Israelis/Jews 3,000 years ago.
Dec 08th, 2010 - 11:54 am - Link - Report abuse 0Only bandit and terrorist states try to rewrite history for their own benefit.
The only terrorist state is Israel. Palestine's claim to independence has support in UN resolutions, and most of the world countries - virtually all Asian and African countries - recognize Palestine as a state. That includes heavyweights like China, Russia and India. Most of the countries that have yet to do that are the likes of Japan, Canada, and Western Europe - all puppets of the US, which is itself a puppet of Israel.

Dec 08th, 2010 - 03:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Do Palestine recognise Israel as a state? They shouldnt be recognised until they recognise Israel. That is the only wat ro real peace in the Mid-East.
Dec 11th, 2010 - 03:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The US does whatever Israel tells it to do. In order for there to be peace both sides must listen to, and respect each other's points of view. In continuing to build settlements, Israel is pretty much saying it does not want peace at all.
Dec 11th, 2010 - 09:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0There are those who do not want peace, who feed off conflict; they have a symbiotic relationship. The extremists on both sides thrive off each other's hatred, while everyone else pays the price.
