Palestine!

[wimp]

All the jews going on about how James Corbyn is anti-Semitic, I disagree! Anything to distract from Brexit!! My concern would be the persecution of the Palestine people.You don't hear much about their rights,certainly not from Donald Trump,Theresa May, or the BBC. Who stands up for the Palestine people ?? I will .They will never have peace as long as *** like Trump and May are backing Israel!!

The Palestinians throw mortars over the wall not knowing what they will hit. Could be crops, soldiers or even children. They are not bothered as they keep doing it. The Israelis have always said they will retaliate and they do. If the Palestinians stopped this then usually the Israelis will do too. Almost every time there has been a peace of some type it is the Palestinians who break it. I am not saying it is just them at fault as there are faults on both sides.

I worked for the peace keeping force set up after the Camp David agreement in the late 70s and when we went into Israel from the Sinai we often got stones thrown at our vehicles. I was always in cars but many of the troops were not as lucky as they travelled in buses. All our vehicles had 3 big letters on the sides so easy targets to see. I once came through Israel and took the wrong road to Rafah the border crossing and took the road to El Rafah which is a Palestinian town on the way to the Gazza. A Palestinian police officer saw us and gave us an escort out of the area and back on to the right road. Even back then some, not all of the Palestinians were not interested in the peace process.

Back then many Palestinians worked in Israel and used to go there each day but since the many troubles and the building of the wall this happens a lot less these days. Then many Palestinians say they do not have any work because of it. It would be good to see both sides working and some living together again as it was before.

Killing children has become so matter of fact now it doesn't even bother some people but as long as there is land to fight over that will be more important.What a world we are taking our children into|!!

Wimp, your naivety shines through.

Is it ok for your neighbor to burn poles of rubber tyres so your family & home is smoked out?

Wimp. I've asked several times what do you honestly think your opposition, or Jeremy Corbyn's opposition, or the Palestinian people's opposition will achieve? No answer as yet. Cutting to the chase .... Palestinians are never going to succeed in gaining control of the land they desire. Never. Israel exists and it will continue to exist. That's the reality - a reality that Palestinians need to acknowledge. Their opposition is futile.

Has it been overrun by the Chinese line with the buyers from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne?

Since wimp isn't going to answer the question, what would your own suggestion be, N? Clearly it's based on a two-state solution (which, so far as I am aware, Hamas doesn't accept) of some kind...

[naomi24]

I don't think believe is a solution, Jim.

[jim360]

Was there a typo in that?

[naomi24]

Delete either the 'think' or 'believe' there. Same difference.

[wimp]

naomi24 Do you know you are repeating yourself and still you have nothing worthwhile to say,off you pop!!

[sandyRoe]

Are the Israelis that keen on a two state solution?

[naomi24]

Cor, that was quick Jim. Almost, but not quite, quicker than I could remedy my error! Fast work!

Wimp - This 5 minute video show you there was NEVER an independent sovereign state called Palestine, and that Arab intrangicence is to blame for the failure of any peace process.
What is your reaction to these facts?

[Zacs-Master]

Eeeek. Cooking sherry.

[naomi24]

wimp, in the absence of answers, repeats are prone to occur .....

Not quite ready for bed yet. No apology offered.

[jim360]

Yeah I thought that was what you meant. I'm not sure I'm so pessimistic, because in the grand scheme of international affairs 70 years isn't really that long, but then again...

In any case, I doubt wimp will reply to you and clearly you have far more personal insight into this than he will -- and myself, if it comes to that.

[jim360]

"Cor, that was quick Jim."

Ninja skills :P

Jim, // because in the grand scheme of international affairs 70 years isn't really that long//

70 years is a drop in the ocean. This has been going on since biblical times. There is no solution.
