Thread Name: Middle East Problems
Subject: RE: Middle East Problems
The problems of Palestine are the makings of the western powers. If someone stole your land and gave it to a load of foreigners, would you be happy about it - would you hell!

Much as I have sympathy for the victims of the holocaust, the problems all stem from the western powers taking Palestinian land, and giving it to the Jews. More correctly, it could be said that they did not do enough to stop the Jews taking the land.

If they wanted the Jews to return to their homeland, they could have given them New York, as there were more Jews there in the 1940's than in Palestine.
