Oh yeah, what does God think of the modern day State of Israel?? Taking into consideration that Israel is run by Godless Law and commits actions contrary to God's laws through the Torah?

What would you do? If you 'neighbor' bulldozed your neighborhood, built houses and moved in. Sounds illegal and immoral to me. What if it happened over and over again - to everyone you knew? What if you 'neighbor' bombed your hospitals and schools, cut off your electricity and water?
Would you fight back? Or just acquiese? When you neighbor openly calls for your death and the death of all your children.
Would you call those that fight back terrorists or freedom fighters?
The whole bloody middle east 'problem' is the result of Western imperalism. It's time for the West to let the Middle East determine their own future, whatever it may be.

That area has not always been referred to as Palestine. There is no nation known as Palestine, no true Palestinian people.
Call them displaced arabs, most likely Jordanians.
Oh please Palestine has existed sine it was named by the Romans. The place that never existed however was a nation called Israel it didn't exist until 1948.

Really, I said all that. Well, I'll be.
Yes, you are delusional if you believe in palestine or that they have been the only "victims" here. Most prestigious podiums you say. I guess that makes them there smart, dern't it.
You call those brave who disagree with me? I call all of you cowards for not applying critical thinking to this issue. Remind me of democrats who, when faced with cold hard facts, scream at the top of their lungs trying to shout everyone else down so as to be the only person heard in the room. Sickening really.
The so-called people from a so-called place named palestine would be better off to go back to the countries they came from...namely Jordan and Syria.
Go ahead ATS....gang up on me, hate me, call me delusional, but in the end I know how this will turn out. YOU ALL LOSE.
The world, as it now exists, was largely shaped by the colonial powers, which divided the world among themselves, carving out states without any consideration for existing ethnic, religious or cultural realities. This was especially true of Africa and the Arab world, where the concept of state was imposed on systems of tribes and clans.

Wrong the name comes from Herodotus who wrote of a 'district of Syria, called Palaistinê" in The Histories it was an area in what is now Syria. Later during the Byzantine period, the entire region (Syria Palestine, Samaria, and the Galilee) was named Palaestina. A country or people never existed by that name until Yassar Arafat created it it was nothing more than a name for a geographic area like saying europe or asia.This area is the most disputed lands on the planet and has changed hands so many times in its history as to be ridiculous. The region has been controlled by numerous different peoples, including Ancient Egyptians, Canaanites, Israelites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Ancient Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, the Sunni Arab Caliphates, the Shia Fatimid Caliphate, Crusaders, Ayyubids, Mameluks, Ottomans, the British and modern Israelis and Palestinians. Notice the last two were very late comers in the big scheme of things thats why Israel is big on archaeology so they can associate themselves with Israelites. Oh and by the way there was a couple more in that list but some only lasted a generation or two so often get forgotten like Palmyrene Empire.
But back on point there has never been Palestinians as a group of people unless you consider south Americans and asians as a people unfortunately thats not the way it works when tracing origin of a group.

False and misleading maps. This is the reality;
The Palestinians are one of the fastest growing populations in earth. In the last hundred years all the deaths combined are half of the present Syrian conflict. A ridiculous accusation.
Question does egypt have any responsibility as well? They built a wall and its only purpose is to make sure Palestinians dont enter egypt. Well correction more like they cant leave the arab league needs them to be there. They made a statement which i find kind of shocking.Arabs have literally created a prison and trying to make Israel have to play guards. Hisham Youssef, spokesman for the 22-nation Arab League, acknowledged that Palestinians live 'in very bad conditions,' but he said the policy is meant 'to preserve their Palestinian identity. "If every Palestinian who sought refuge in a certain country was integrated and accommodated into that country, there won't be any reason for them to return to Palestine,"
There has never been a people known as "Palestinians" there from Lebanon,Syria and Jordan
See people dont look at what happened there GAZA was refugee camps started because Jordan started trying toget the Fahta movement out of Jordan.
Now the hard part whats the answer we cant move Israel to late for that. We cant move the palistinians no country wants them. So sharing i doubt will work to much bad blood between the two. Creating separate territories doubt that as well because even when Palestinians are given land there is still attacks. If we split it down the middle they would still fight so im thinking there is no answer.

And anyone who thinks this is an age old conflict that has gone on and on for thousands of years. That is rubbish. There are living Jews and Muslims who remember a time not too long ago where there was no conflict. All of this is new.

This is a newly created conflict produced in the last handful of decades by rich and powerful people who want to control and crush the weak with no care or regret.
Jews and Muslims not too long ago raised each other's children, shared homes, were friendly and fine with each other.
In fact, many still are.
Stop falling for the lies of state made propaganda that is selling you that this is a long standing conflict that goes back to ages before America. It is not true.
And don't think all Jews support Zionism. The truly religious ones do not.
With that said. I am sick to my stomach with the nonsense I have read here by some blind folks who ignore the facts and blame the victims. I am done here. And I am almost sure I have just been put on a list for speaking the truth.
Screw Zionism.

Thank you!
That so few seem to grasp this, is evidence of just how insidious Zionist programming is. The supporting evidence of this videos speakers' claims is in the fact that the largest population of Jews outside the USA is in Iran..peacefully living in the heart of so called 'enemy territory'.
Zionist, as they did in Russia, Germany and now Palestine, stole from world Jewry its own sacred Rite, and three times now, Jewish people are facing an undeserved backlash and blame. I am deeply proud of Torah abiding Jewry for their ongoing support of the people of Palestine. It hasn't gone unnoticed where it matters...or in my own heart.

Iran has nothing to do with it and not sure your point. This fight is about the holy land and who controls it. And its been going on for centuries and will probably continue for many more. Remember 3 major religions consider this area important and thats the heart of the issue the Palestinians are nothing more than pawns in the game.
If Hamas wouldn't attack Israel they would have no reason to hit Gaza... Israel pulled all settlers and military out of Gaza, and what they got in return was increased rocket fire from Hamas.
