SORRY FRIEND, YOU DIDN'T READ WELL...

THE ARTICLE SAYS, "But Jews have a longer history - almost 4,000 years - with these ancient Holy Places - Hebron, Shechem, Bethlehem, Shilo, Tekoa, Elon More, Jericho as the indigenous population - than the Arabs do. Most of whom came into the area from the surrounding Arab countries in the late 19th & early 20th centuries. Why should the Jews have to leave? If Arabs can be equal citizens in Israel, electable to the Knesset - parliament - why can't Jews be equal citizens in the democratic Palestinian state in the making, with full rights, responsibilities, and privileges?"

1. THERE WEREN'T "MILLIONS" OF ARABS THERE - THAT'S PLO PROPAGANDA!

2. THE JEWISH CONNECTION TO THE LAND, LONG PREDATES ANY ARAB/MUSLIM CONNECTION!

3. DID YOU KNOW THAT JEWS WERE ALREADY THE LARGEST PLURALITY IN JERUSALEM IN 1840? BEFORE THE ZIONIST RETURN, AND BY 1870 ALREADY THE MAJORITY!

TELL ME MR. "JewforFreePalestine"... WHY DO YOU CRY FOR OTHER PEOPLE BUT NOT YOUR OWN? WHERE IS YOUR JEWISH NATIONAL PRIDE? PALESTINIANS (WHATEVER THAT IS) HAVE NATIONAL PRIDE, WHY NOT YOU?

YOUR JEWISH HISTORY IS GLORIOUS!

HAVE YOU EVER GONE INTO THE LIBRARY LOOKING AT THE JUDAISM SECTION?

OR A YESHIVA (RABBINICAL SCHOOL) LIBRARY AND SEEN JUST HOW MANY 1000'S OF VOLUMES OF JEWISH LAW, JEWISH PHILOSOPHY, JEWISH MYSTICISM THERE ARE, ETC. WHICH WERE PRODUCED IN THE LAST 1800 YEARS? WHILE EUROPE WAS STILL LIVING IN TREES OR UNDER CHURCH DICTATORSHIP, JEWS WERE THINKING, CONTEMPLATING, WRITING ABOUT THE GREAT QUESTIONS OF MANKIND!

WHY ARE ALMOST 25% OF ALL NOBEL PRIZE WINNERS JEWISH?

AND YES, JEWS TRANSLATED FOR CHRISTIAN EUROPE AND THE MUSLIM LANDS IN THE EARLY MIDDLE AGES, THE GREAT WORKS OF GREEK PHILOSOPHY, MATH, SCIENCE, AND MEDICINE TO HELP ENLIGHTEN THOSE CULTURES. WE WEREN'T AFRAID OF DEALING WITH ISSUES, EVEN FROM OTHER CULTURES (THAT IS, WE WEREN'T INTELLECTUALY INSULAR - "ONLY OUR BIBLE & TALMUD").

SO WHERE IS YOUR JEWISH NATIONAL PRIDE?

AND WHY CAN EVERY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE ITS OWN COUNTRY, BUT THE JEWS?

THINK...THINK...THINK ABOUT IT!
