Canaan should be the most respected and preserved land on earth for the vast majority of the world's population. I've been to Bethlehem and it's an absolute shithole (worse than Glasgow ). Just strikes me as paradoxical that the so-called Holy Land has been caught up in a war for over half a century. Humans eh? Not the brightest.
The holy land has been caught up in a war since the crusades ,not just because of land borders ,but because of religion .The Palestinians hate the Israeli's as simple as that ,they could be at opposite ends of the world and the Palestinians would still attack the Israeli's .Just to clarify things i am not a jew,palestinian ,extremist ,racist or any sort of polititian ,just an ordinary wee guy born and bred in Glasgow ,who thinks the Israeli's have had a raw deal for centuries . I just wonder if there would be as much outrage and demonstrations ,like the ones in London if the Palestinians were attacking tye Israeli's . I think not.
How can you possibly make such sweeping generalizations?
" The Palestinians hate the Israeli's as simple as that ". You see despite the half truths and lies - fed by our media, Jew and Arab have been living side by side in peace and friendship - that's human beings for you. Despite differences in secondary matters such as - colour of skin - and who you happen to worship - these potentially antagonistic contradictions are reduced by common respect for the human condition.
