Okay here is break down of the whole Arab – Israel situation as I see it.
The League of Nations approved in 1922 the British mandate of Palestine; Jews immigrated there in large numbers despite Arab opposition. There was tension and violence between Jews and Arabs, and the British, unable to resolve the problem, turned to the UN in 1947. In November 1947 the United Nations divided Palestine, then under British mandate, into Jewish and Arab states. Six months later the British withdrew, and on May 14, 1948, the state of Israel was proclaimed. This lead to a series of wars between Israel and it’s neighbors from 1948 until the late seventies. The result of these wars was that Israel captured large amounts of Arab land.
Skip forward some time to 2002, Arabs have for years now been attacking Jewish settlements in theses areas taken from them in the wars between the Arabs and Israel during 1950’s, 60’s and 70’s, Israel has been retaliating with deadly force (much of which was provided by the U.S.A, Thus being the reason for so much of the anti-American feeling in the area) against the Palestinian people.
My feeling is that Israel needs to realize that if they continue to occupy Arab territories the Arab people will inflict suffering upon them and that they should return land back to the way it was in 1948, Until this happens I will always look upon Israel as the aggressor and Palestine as a people fighting for their land.

yo right to see it how ever you choose but you're simply wrong like many others imo, you see, there was no palestinian state there ever. they would never even claim to seek for it, if it waznt for their will to get the Jews out. also, you should know that most of Israelz wars were brought uppon Israel...and i don't remember many countrys returnin' occupied territories after WON wars like Israelz does....Israel does far beyond anythang any other peace seeking country does, but as long as there is terrorism, palestinianz and jews r going to suffer.

How many times have you seen a thread in here critizing a country besides America?
Jay ay Beee:
America is the only world superpower
It is the only country that makes huge decisions
It is natural that it recieves attention
What has Finland ever done in the Middle East conflict?
See what I mean
Britain is the only other one that recieves a bit of criticism
