I have very little interest in Ancient History other than to learn from
it's mistakes and never repeat them. However, I've never been given the
impression that the Jews were a Nation of victims. The Jews went to the
Desert in 1947 and built what is today an economic miracle, by
comparison the Arab neighbours have hardly progressed in thousands of
years.

The World has very little sympathy for terrorists and religious
extremists. Here in Europe the tide was turned not just by the wave of
Islamic bombings throughout the World (including Israel) but by the
protests in Europe against the Danish cartoons. The World is tired of
irrational Arabs who whine and complain and do nothing to contribute to
humanity, we can only conclude that the Palestinians are a Nation of
victims. We listened to the whining that Israeli was withholding Tax
money to the Palestinians, too bad they elected a Terrorists
Government. And where are their Arab neighbours, why is it that Arabs
never help other Arabs in trouble and the Israeli's do? The EU recently
gave ?30M in aid to the Palestinians but not to the Government, how
much did the oil rich nations contribute? I say give them nothing.



Spot on. What have the Arabs done to Palestine since 1947 apart from
wars and terrorism?

Even when the OPEC was hell-bent on profiteering from the oil crisis in
the 70's, did they ever pump a bit of their new-found riches into the
land to help with any community projects of education, health, housing,
social welfare or whatever for their Palestinian brothers?

Not to mention those Arab tycoons living in the West as they seem to be
more interested in maintaining their extravagant life styles than the
livelihood of their Palestinian brothers.
