There is enough land for everyone

That's rather the problem, Dave - there *isn't*. Not if you're one of the many, many Palestinian farmers thrown off their land by Jewish settlers. If there was enough land for everyone, why don't the Israelis head off over there...?

This isn't driven by a hatred of the Jewish religion or people, Jaze. Rather, it's driven by a hatred of the actions of the Israeli government. "Jew" or "Jewish" is only used as a synonym for "Israeli" in the same way that "Communist" used to be used as a synonym for "Russian".
