8. The VAST majority of Americans have NO idea

of the history of Israel's "founding" - out of Palestinian land with the collaboration of the European powers - especially England. They have NO idea that the current "Palestinian" people have lived in what is now "Israel" for hundreds of years, and that giving that land "back" to the Jewish people (who God only knows have truly suffered over the centuries) makes LESS sense that does giving ALL of the United States back to the Native Americans, who still "owned" MOST of the US less than two centuries ago. Most Americans have NO idea about how many Palestinians were forced out of the homes and off of their land so that European and American Jews could occupy it. Israel is the last European colony in the Middle East. Ms Bigmack
