Rashi, who mandated what? Moses and Joshua? Richard the Lion Heart? The British with the Balfour Declaration? This is not a simplistic issue, and I feel that Mr. Goldberg knows that too. Pray tell, just WHY should someone leave where "home" is just because some other ethnic group says he "has" to? Compensation be damned.

I am afraid I would be mightily upset if the Lakota and Northern Cheyenne told me I did not own my house anymore, just find someplace else............like where? Not that the Lakota and Northern Cheyenne don't have a legal/moral/ethical "right" to say that, they do. Just where am I supposed to go? To the countries my ancestors 3 generations removed came from?

I am quite sure that Ireland, England and the Netherlands would give me a land grant because my ancestors chose to leave those places.............(sarcasm, here, folks.)

Let's face it: In our world, Might Makes Right. Doesn't make it Right, but it is sad but true.
