  1. +Gary Anderson "Israel is the one liberal democracy in the middle east - Free Speech, Gay Rights, Women's Rights, Independent Judiciary. Any Palestinian family who kills an Israeli gets a monthly salary," The Palestinian Arabs are a people who, unlike the Kurds, do not have their own religion, language, or culture that’s different in essence from their Arab brethren in neighboring Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon. The Palestinian Arabs have answered every peace offer for their own “Palestinian” state with one unequivocal word, “no,” and then initiated a wave of hatred, violence, and terrorism. The reason? Because it would also mean recognition of and co-existence with a non-Arab people, the Jews.

  2. +Gar Sm Your words: Israel was far better armed in 1948, but the key thing was better organisation. The victims were the Palestinian refugees .... That victim card.

  3. +Rami6 It is not about de humanising the Palestinian people . It is about the the Palestinian people being used to achieve a political agenda by Hamas and Hezbollah. You know that.

  6. Nick N On the 14th May 1948, Israel became an independent state after Israel was recognised by the United Nations as a country in its own right. Immediately, on the same day of being granted its independence, Israel was attacked by Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq. Even though it was a surprise attack by the combined force of all the nations surrounding the new nation, and while Israel was having to deal with terrorist organisations implanted domestically, Israeli victories came on all the war fronts. As a result of their military victory, Israel expanded the territory given to the state by the United Nations. The 1948 war, which the Israelis referred to as the “War of Independence”, claimed 6,000 Israeli lives Ironically, those nations that had attacked Israel in May 1948, only lost slightly more men – 7,000. However, the damage to their morale was considerable. NOT 5 million

  7. +Gar Sm Rubbish. Israel was attacked In an act of war by soldiers of Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq. Those who died were soldiers of Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq. Stop playing the pathetic victim card. The west is over it. come up with a new one.

  8. Rami Rami The Palestinians need to recognise Israel's right to exist. Only then can the state of Palestine exist.
