David : I'm not sure I am getting your point if you are responding to my article, unless you may be implying that neither Israel or so-called palestine is innocent and I use so-called because there has never been a nation called palestine except the romans called it that in the first century and it was completely jewish palestine.

I am against a two state solution for peace because the arabs do not want peace with Israel and our current president bush just does not seem to understand that and he seems to tilt his favor toward the arabs in order to appease and please them, they see that as weakness in a leader and they see that as an opportunity to take an advantage of his weak overtures, now I know that a lot of Canadians see the palestinians as the victims. I hope you are not one of them, because they most certainly are not.

Jordan is home for the palestinians and it was mandated by the british after defeating the ottoman turks in the early 1900's. The people that dwell in the territories now called palestine are just a mix of arabs from various countries[arab origin] who came to or toward Israel during her return in 1948 and the prosperity it was having and giving those people employment and they multiplied and more came and when they reeked violence to Israel, they fired or expelled almost all of them and now they are saying Israel has stolen their land, Israel is much larger than what they are now dwelling on at the present time.
