I don't have a hard on for anyone. I'm simply stating that you can't summarize relations between two cultures that have spanned several millenia by evaluating the last 100 years - it's just short sighted and incomplete.
Where exactly did I state that the Jews had any more or any less right to the land than the Muslims? Quite frankly, I think they BOTH have equal legitimate claim to the land, and are fighting because they're different and because it's what they've always done, not because one is more correct than the other.
I'd think you'd understand this better given your self assured approach to evaluating a place you've never been to, and a people you know little about.
The difference between you and me, is that I understand both sides of the argument, you have a simplified understanding of one side of it...well, that and the fact that I know how to separate my thoughts into paragraphs.
