They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

New Jersey is the 5th-smallest US state, covering about 7800 square miles or 20,000 square kilometers.
As the comparison map above shows, the land currently controlled by the State of Israel (including disputed territories) is not much larger. Israel in its pre-1967 borders was 8,019 square miles or 20,770 square kilometers, just barely bigger than New Jersey.

go on then rick tell us the story of that one
I don't want to go explaining for Rick but I think his point is the muslims have most of Northern Africa, most of Southwest and Southcentral Asia. The Jews have a tiny sliver of land in the middle east. :shock:

The big argument with most of the arabs and muslims in general is Israel's right to exist. Point is the palestinians could go to any of these arab, muslim countries. There is only one very tiny Jewish state.:wink:

people are people anywhere you go around the world they can be stupid and stubborn anywhere. infact they're more likely to get stupid and stubborn when they're pushed i think you'd get a similar reaction anywhere around the world if you"suggested" people packed up and moved on

I'm not advocating that I'm simply pointing out that the Jews should be entitled to their own state without fear of terrorist attacks. That has yet to become a reality. Most of the Palestinian extremist groups want Israel gone. :peace:

What exactly is it that gives Jewish people the entitlement over a certain territory again?

Oh yeah, a fairy tale.

Nuff siad.

What's the big deal? thet stole 8,019 square miles, we(USA) stole a whole continent! Any difference? We did it for greed, they think they are god's chosen people and have a right to the land. What a pair of fucked up reasons.

Their right to the land comes from the fact that they are there and it is their historic land. They have built a modern technologically advanced country. Regardless of how this came to be, the fact that it is there now is all the argument needed.

As far as the Arab nomads that previously inhabited areas no longer available to them, they ought to be able to relocate. The problem is, the Arab League issued a declaration to all Arab countries not to absorb the Palestinians, specifically so they could create the conflict they are now dealing with. It was a pre-meditated plan by the Arabs to use the Palestinians as pawns.

As far as how asking them to relocate is justified in the first place, understand that even in the US we have eminent domain. People here as in all countries are forced to relocate when it is necessary due to progress.

The main issue here is when you look at the map, and reasonable person has to wonder why when the Arabs have all that land, they are fighting over the one tiny speck that is Israel.
