No we could not, that is just ridiculous. A better analogy would be the Lakota Sioux Indians reclaiming Minnesota or Dakota from the all conquering savage 'palefaces' who lied and cheated and murdered and massacred their way to stealing those lands (and more) from them.

Is it? But our ancestors were there first.
If the descendants of the Sioux Indians were to attempt to take back the land they would be justified?

Well, perhaps in light of the fact that the US Government have been paying billions of dollars in 'compensation' to the native American Indians for decades now, I think the answer is YES.

Did the British offer compensation to the Palestinians post war?

The Jews never left Israel. And we never will.

This is actually so true, For thousands of years - under the occupying forces of various conquerers - the Jews have maintained a presence in their native land.

'If the state of Israel hadn't been invented after the war, the Jews would still have gone there'.

How can they go there if they never left?

Only so much of seeing their friends and family killed that they could take before they unfortunately became radicalised really. Sad state of affairs for both sides.

I can only speak for myself, but I want to be informed when people are being randomly stabbed in a country. I don't care who did what, what religion or race the victims are, its still not right. This is a news forum, and it ranks as an informing article to me, which by definition is news.

This is all very sad and really bad that the norm is to have to live with these occurrences and unnecessary loss of lives.
While I agree that the Palestinians should have their own existence secured with and as a Nation too,which I accept is blocked in the main by Israel.

My sympathies do however lie with Israel in the main,Israelis are persecuted and condemned by most of the Nations around them and their existence of having to always watch all sides continuously must be a nightmare most of the time.
Something even the setting up of a Palestinian state will not completely eradicate either very sadly.

Reopening this, I've deleted half of the thread so can we please try and discuss the topic without discussing eachother this time?

Trouble is whoevers side you're on, the whole thing is a disaster and appears to be part of what is leading to Armageddon. The recent times seem worse than ever and the leadership appear to be incapable of finding any compromise or peaceful solution.

Awful.I saw a BBC news report quite recently where an Israely woman was with her young child and a Palestinian ran up behind her and stabbed her like nine times.As she fell to the ground begging for help and for somebody to take her child to safety the Palestinian women around either ignored her or some were chanting "die die" at her.Horrible.
