By the way, randolph, there is no such thing as a "Gazinian." People in Gaza are Palestinians.

I made up the term Gazinian

In my view, Israel is a colonial-settler state that has as little right to exist as white South Africa ever had to exist on the Azanian land. Israel loses the "PR war," as ila calls it, because most people in the world have a visceral negative reaction to colonization and relentless debasement of an entire people.

The Jews and Arabs have both been in Palistine for thousands of years. It would seem that the Jews have a historical right to live in Palestine.
The Europeans have no historical right to live in south Africa. Also, for that matter, we have no historical right to live in North America.
The British well knew that a Jewish state in Palestine would cause endless trouble and they resisted it. I believe it was our doing that had a lot to do with the surviving European Jews succeeding in establishing a Jewish state in Palistine. Unfortunately, they learned a little to much from the Nazis about intolerance.
