All told the US and Israel have both done a great deal to create the mess that they now face. Israel insists that time started sometime in 1948, sometime after the Palestinians were driven from their homes by force. The US insists that any criticism of its past covert activities is unpatriotic, illegitimate.
Actually, it's the Arab League that rejects history before 1948. Otherwise, they'd have to admit they murdered 100's of Jews in the Hebron riots in the 1920's, as well as evict hundreds more. Interestingly enough, if a Jewish descendent goes back to Hebron, they're called a land-grabbing thief.
If Jews can't go back to their lands they were evicted from, then Palestinians should lose their right of return too.
Instead of facing the past the Israelis scream ANTI-SEMITE at anyone who raises it while the US screams ANTI-AMERICAN. And they hope that screaming and yelling and a sufficient supply of bullets will allow them to remain where they are and never have to make any compromise to anyone or to admit their cause to be anything less than entirely-richeous.
You just lost any credibility, that's such a FSCKing myth and only claimed by idiots like yourself. Israel faces criticism ALL the time, the only time politicians cry ANTI-SEMITE is when someone extends the conflict to include "The Jews". For example, that guy that said "The Jews" were evil because there were some Jews behind the Bolshevic revolution.
Unfortunately, this post will most likely be modded as "off-topic", yet your equally off-topic post will be modded up. Go figure.
So then Jews evicted from Jordan (where it's illegal for a Jew to become a citizen), and Jews evicted from other Arab nations should bomb the families that live in their old houses, instead of getting on with their lives in a new place?
What do you call the suicide bombers of Sep. 11, suicide bombers of Iraq, suicide bombers of Afghanistan, the suicide bombers if Chechnya/Russia, the suicide bombers of Pakistan, etc etc.
Stating suicide bombing is the last resort from an oppressed people (aka Palestine) is entirely ignorant, because it ignores all the other locations in which they occur and are just as accepted.
Currently the situation is that zionist racists drove a large number of palestinians from their homes in 1948 and continue to deny their right to return
As opposed to the slightly larger number of Jewish refugees which were driven from their homes in surrounding Arab countries, and are still denied the right of return.
Will you at least admit the suicide bombings are racist, as they primarily target only Jews?
If you cannot admit this, then logically you must admit that the Zionists that drove Palestinians from their homes weren't racist because they were attacked first by their Arab neighbors.

The Camp David accords were a start! It was Israelis making compromises, rather than saying "we want it all."
Did Arafat make even one compromise? No, he wanted everything. All of Jerusalem, all WB and G, eviction of all Jewish settlers, and right of return.
Clinton actually lost his patience with Arafat, for not making any reasonable offers, just rejecting everything put on the table by the Israelis.
So if Arafat walks into a temple, Israel can then blame him for starting 'it'?
Not to mention, the same UN that had "peacekeepers" at the Israel/Lebanon border who sat by as three Israelis were abducted by hezbollah.
The same UN that denied, despite claims, it had a videotape of the incident.
The same UN that finally admitted it did have a videotape of the kidnapping, and released it to Israel with the kidnappers faces blacked out.
So then Jews evicted from Jordan (where it's illegal for a Jew to become a citizen), and Jews evicted from other Arab nations should bomb the families that live in their old houses, instead of getting on with their lives in a new place?
sorry, lumping all israelis into the label "racist occupiers" is just as bad as claiming all jews own germany.
