"Israel, since 1948, has been willing to trade land for peace. They have given up land, but not had peace."
No they haven't - the British left to the sound of Israeli 'Freedom Fighters' hurling hand grenades into occupied houses to clear the ground for Jewish settlers - documented fact - it's in the book
They haven't stopped since
You refuse to even refer to what rights Palestinians have to what land
which means none - so it's the gast chambers then.
You refuse to refer to the present peace talks and the influence Israli settlement has already had on the outcome - which means you agree with us that it is no more than a PR exercise by the Israelis who have no interest in peace
You are an inept armchair Zionist fanatic not even capable of putting forward a half decent argument.
You are to the Israeli regime what the skinhead braindeads are to the BNP
Couldn't agree less that we should ignore this pair of yobs Steve - they are making our case far more effectively than we possibly could - leave them at it

The 1948 Massacre at Deir Yassin Revisited
by Matthew Hogan
Between 9 and 11 April 1948, over 100 Arab townspeople were massacred by Jewish paramilitaries in Deir Yassin near Jerusalem in the British Mandate of Palestine. The incident was pivotal in modern Middle East history, becoming in one Israeli historian's words, "a landmark in the chronicles of the Israel-Arab conflict and a symbol of the horrors of war."(1) It greatly stimulated Palestinian Arab refugee flight and appears to have been critical in the final decision of the Arab states to intervene directly in Palestine in 1948 to thwart the creation of the state of Israel. The Deir Yassin incident, therefore, is intimately connected to the two main issues that have defined the Arab-Israeli conflict: the armed hostility to Israel by the Arab states and the enduring Palestinian refugee issue.

Around 107 villagers were killed during and after the battle for the village, including women and children—some were shot, while others died when hand grenades were thrown into their homes.[2] Several villagers were taken prisoner and may have been killed after being paraded through the streets of West Jerusalem, though accounts vary.[3] Four of the attackers died, with around 35 injured.[4] The killings were condemned by the leadership of the Haganah—the Jewish community's main paramilitary force—and by the area's two chief rabbis. The Jewish Agency for Israel sent Jordan's King Abdullah a letter of apology, which he rebuffed.[1]
