Yes, and there were attacks by Jews against Palestinians. I'm not sure why you're surprised that the attacks keep increasing the more the Israelis extend their occupation?

Why not treat all of Israel and The West Bank as one entity ( as it was pre1947) and then hold elections?

Isn't the key issue that a two state solution is the only option as if not - provided the Jewish people permit Palistinians to vote that the Palistinians would have the majority in Govt.


End of the day lots of people are being killed continuously and have been since the creation of Israel why in all this time has no one been able to come up with a resolution given the exceptionally skilled negotiators?

Because the palestinans believed the crap Arafat told them while he was feathering his substantial Swiss bank accounts

Good point - but then it is about spoils of war, who your best buddies are and who has the biggest guns.

1947 - the Indians got a vote & split itself into 3 AFAIK, the Muslims chose to have their own country and they got it.

Arab attacks on jewsish settlements started in 1920,the first irgun attacks on arabs was in 37 ,by which time there had been over 700 casualties.

where did I say I was suprised about attacks increasing ?

why not give the palestinians the 75% of historical palestine that israel doesnt occupy?

That'll be "Eretz israel" that some Zionists are already claiming is rightfully theirs?

so, if we continue to look back to see where the 'blame' for this mess lies, could it be with this guy?

Yes - and in 10/20 years time, when the settlements are larger and easier to connect to each other, I suspect the Israelis will still be using the same excuse. They want the land because they think they're entitled to it. Unfortunately there are already people living on the land. And when they push them off those people get upset.

Strange that.....
