"They are both equally to blame for each other's suffering. "


THIS is a statement that I have seen no justification for.

Had the Palestinians not fled as per Arab League command, they would not be refugees.

Had the other Arab nations accepted the Palestinian refugees, as Israel accepted the Arab Jewish refugees, there would not be any Palestinian refugees.

Had Jordan ( the ARAB HOMELAND of Mandate Palestine) settled the Palestinian refugess in Jordan, as India settled the Hindu refugees from Pakistan, and Pakistan settled the Muslim refugees from India, and Israel settled the Jewish refugess from the Arab nations, THERE WOULD BE NO CONFLICT.


Yet, you hold Israel "EQUALLY" responsible to those whe deliberatly target it's civilian population. Since you will admit Canada is not perfect, as I admit Israel is not, will you accept EQUAL blame for Hitler's actions in WWII, since Canada took part in that conflict? If not, WHY should Israel accept the blame for what the other Arab countries did (or did not do)?
