We can't assume Jordanians are Arabs..I don't know what they are or are not but it is the Hashemite? Kingdome. And Palestinians of course can be Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Greek Orthodox and probably a mixture of nationalities.

This DNA stuff is going to get interesting in a few years. Mark my words.

Can we imagine us the world body telling the gypsies of the world, who have been exploited, slaughtered in a genocide sense, etc...here is a state for you in India. Just move the others out. This is where you are from and I am sure there is a holy book that tells them the land is their's.

I was thinking the Palestinians need a day like St. Patrick's Day..just to have a nice time...celebrate surviving if nothing else...and I thought..well, who are some Palestinian saints...then I thought..well, Mary maybe for one..and some of the 12 apostles perhaps. I'm Catholic..won't win any bible contests....

But I also thinkt here are people who think concrete and some who think abstract. I am concrete. I think about the particular house and olive orchard and goats. Abstract people think in terms of a state that they are sure allpeople want. Some people don't care as long as their little piece of ground is their's atthe end of the day. mg
