Quote of the day

The sudden assertion of human criteria within a dehumanising framework of political manipulation can be like a flash of lightning illuminating a dark landscape

Vaclav Havel

Not quite accurate as the name Palestine came about only after the Romans. Also, Jordan doesn't appear to be demarcated as being part of Palestine for some odd reason. Are you trying to imply that the inhabitants were always arab and always known as 'palestinians'?

"Are you trying to imply that the inhabitants were always arab and always known as 'palestinians'?" No. Just that change is inevitable, that eventually even the most powerful empires and countries crumble to dust and that, as humanity struggles to live, we should all try to not to hurt each other or make each other suffer.

'Just that change is inevitable, that eventually even the most powerful empires and countries crumble to dust ' All of them? 'as humanity struggles to live, we should all try to not to hurt each other or make each other suffer.' Perhaps you should preach this to your fellow islamic fascists.

'Just that change is inevitable, that eventually even the most powerful empires and countries crumble to dust ' All of them? Of course. So many have disappeared already. In the extreme, to make it easy for you, eventually the whole planet will crumble to dust and the sun will be extinguished. Hurting each othe seems so petty and cruel. Perhaps you should preach this to your fellow islamic fascists. You are mistaken, there are no Islamic fascists. That is a European concept, so that Zionism which was invented in Europe, is much more likely to contain elements of it. It can much more appropriately be designated as fascist, and sometimes is. You do seem to be very callous about the suffering of "others." Is that a Zionist characteristic or jut you?

'Of course. So many have disappeared already. ' You're talking about ancient civilisations but the interesting thing for you is that the Jewish nation has survived all of them. 'You do seem to be very callous about the suffering of "others." Is that a Zionist characteristic or jut you?' I'm not actually. Its you who seems to be oblivious to the murdering mentality of islamic fascists.
