  3. 14 June 2007 Hamas took over Gaza in a coup over Fatah/PA and turned the strip into a military platform to attack Israel. They paid off the Gazans to be complicit, so did UNRWA. If that ends, peace is possible.

  8.  @mimicocto  Egypt and Israel have a complex relationship regarding the Philadelphi Corridor. While Egypt has not publicly cooperated with Israel in controlling the corridor, they are working behind-the-scenes in coordination. Egypt has its own security concerns and has taken measures to destroy smuggling tunnels and maintain control over its side of the border.

  9.  @mimicocto  I agree, IDF is controlling the border/corridor, but the history of Egypt since 1981 (Sadat Assassination) is they say one thing in public and do another in private. What does al-Masri mean to you, and why do so many in Gaza have that name?

  10. Pappe himself is an atheist who does not believe in any nation/state. He's a nut.

  11. You keep saying that over and over again, and for 100 years. Why hasn't that happened?

  12. None of that is true. There are 1.9 million Arab citizens of Israel. They serve on the Knesset, the Supreme Court and the IDF. Jordan is an Apartheid state, they restrict the number Christians in Government and Academia, and there are now Jews. 14 June 2007 Hamas took over Gaza in a bloody military coup and turned it into a military platform to destroy Israel. The civilians were paid off to be complicit.

  13. Irrelevant. Israel is a modern, secular nation/state. There are 1.9 million Arab citizens of Israel who are not Jews, 20% of the population. They serve in the Knesset, the Supreme Court in and in the IDF. Show me the comparable in Jordan?

  14.  @brianlevengood  Some scholars believe the Romans wrote some sections of what is now the New Testament ""The first shall be last, and the last shall be first" is Roman propaganda to keep the weak in their place with hopes of a reward in Heaven. Sounds right.
