Not stealing Palestine but purchasing Israel

Once again Daniel Pipes explains history pure and simple. No one does it better! His exposes of truth have been an oasis for me in the desert of misinformation in the main stream media and in the Bay Area around San Francisco. I have heard so many lies about Middle-Eastern history for so many decades it is frightening.

When so many so-called educated people believe this lie told a thousand times, when the truth told once is unmistakably backed up by archeology and yet they refuse truth even in academia, our own children are being taught lies.' Why?' Is my question. The truth is out there. If we stay dependent on Arab oil we stay dependent on lies. Jackie Mason must read Daniel Pipes! He did a video for Helen Thomas in which he says...did you ever read a book...like a history book? If the Arabs claim to be descended from Ishmael how then are they descended from people from the land of Canaan when Ishmael was banished from that land as an adolescent and married an Eqyptian like his mother. It is an insult to Mohammed to deny their own geneaology With their stories he becomes a liar. Don't think he'd like that! I understand Arabs backing up the lies of other Arabs per their culture, but I don't understand an intelligent educated person believing them! Q? why are Arabs Arabs? Because they are from Arabia? Q'? why are Jews Jews? Because they are from Judea? Hum??? Just a thought!
