There is only one group since then whose situation is unresolved.

Guess who?

Only one group whose children and ancestors generations later remain refugees....

I recommend you read that. You'll learn a lot.

Take care.

The PLO & Hamas are still @ war vs. Jewish Apes and Pigs... shira Apr 2013 #21

aha yep they want it all and so does Israel but guess what no one is getting it "all:" azurnoir Apr 2013 #24

Israel has offered while the Palestinians have rejected 2 states each time. shira Apr 2013 #26

Did I ever say I supported anybody? bravenak Apr 2013 #13

The PLO & Hamas are not victims. Understand? shira Apr 2013 #23

I never said they were victims. Show me where I said Hamas are victims or the PLO. bravenak Apr 2013 #30

They're oppressors, aren't they? Do we agree on that? shira Apr 2013 #31

I will concede to you that I do not agree with their methods. Violence is oppressive, so yes. bravenak Apr 2013 #32

Racist comments? Shaktimaan Apr 2013 #22

There were only 2 when I wrote that. Loren Griffith and kjell Amundsen . bravenak Apr 2013 #28

actually i would call u the racist.... pelsar Apr 2013 #33

Call me what you will. bravenak Apr 2013 #34

He's saying "the Jews" (his words) are superior to Palestinians. delrem Apr 2013 #35

That's what I thought he was saying. bravenak Apr 2013 #36

Yes, and as you see, there's no shame. delrem Apr 2013 #46

You mean no shame when you have to misrepresent your opponents' views... shira Apr 2013 #60

You seem upset that pelsar made it all about "The Jews", shira. I don't blame you. nt delrem Apr 2013 #65

You don't seem willing or capable of discussing what Pelsar actually wrote about. n/t shira Apr 2013 #66

I don't want to discuss "The Jews", shira. nt delrem Apr 2013 #67

Where did Pelsar talk about Jews being superior to Palestinians.... shira Apr 2013 #68

perhaps you and pelsar should take your talk about "the Jews" to PMing? delrem Apr 2013 #69

Not sure where your going with this, King_David Apr 2013 #89

Since pelsar dropped to shira, and shira is dropping to you, fo with the tag-teaming. David. delrem Apr 2013 #91

Was just wondering, King_David Apr 2013 #92

OK Dave. Keep on wondering then. sheeee delrem Apr 2013 #98

no i'm saying you have lower expectation for the Palestinians... pelsar Apr 2013 #39

You are saying exactly what I said you are saying. It has nothing to do with "expectations". delrem Apr 2013 #41

the opposite... pelsar Apr 2013 #42

that is disgusting. nt delrem Apr 2013 #43

i agree... pelsar Apr 2013 #45

Yes delrem, your view is disgusting and racist. So since you cannot defend it.... shira Apr 2013 #51

and i was clarifying.... pelsar Apr 2013 #44

You must be sleepy. bravenak Apr 2013 #47

chose a racist govt? pelsar Apr 2013 #48

Once again you are rambling. bravenak Apr 2013 #79

I'll let you know when they get there. bravenak Apr 2013 #104

its a question of principle pelsar Apr 2013 #106

I don't defend everyone's choices. bravenak Apr 2013 #128

thats a really vague simplistic response.. how about getting real now pelsar Apr 2013 #159

very little.... pelsar Apr 2013 #102

so were you a witness a victim or azurnoir Apr 2013 #103

well you get a short story... pelsar Apr 2013 #105

Avnery says 50K per year for 10 years is reasonable.... shira Apr 2013 #115

That sounds reasonable. bravenak Apr 2013 #160

Each refugee doesn't get a choice when only 10% max are allowed RoR. shira Apr 2013 #163

Life ain't been fair so far. bravenak Apr 2013 #164

Gush-Shalom's proposal is unworkable. They should put something out about 50K returning.... shira Apr 2013 #165

They're being used by both sides. bravenak Apr 2013 #166

The world has failed them, deliberately so... shira Apr 2013 #167

You cannot displace people, remove them and forget about them. bravenak Apr 2013 #168

Do you realize there were 10's of millions of refugees back in the 1940's? shira Apr 2013 #169

That has to be the most ridiculous statement on the planet. Congratulations. delrem Apr 2013 #170
