That's a myth. I heard that myth told many times by Arabs and anti-semites because they want to degrade the original Jewish heritage.
And Palestinians being descendants to the Philistines is just a pathetic claim. Sorry, but the Jews came to Palestine long before the Arabs. Israel belongs to the Jews.

im just intrested to hear the reasoning to that statement please
edit: why does any nation belong to any one group of people?
|
They have historical rights to the territory being the first (still living) people to have conquered the area and established a nation there. Plus Israel was founded as a Jewish nation, a home and safe haven for all the Jews in the world, and it's been acknowledged and recognized by the UN.
|
yeah, i thought so...
that is the dumbest argument you can make on this, because i can use the same argument to say that the USA must by rights belong to what few native americans are still alive, you see, its a stupid argument to make, thats why i wanted to check.

I wouldnt call what slimebeast is using as logic. He reaches a conclusion by emotion, then he struggles to make a argument for the emotional conclusion he already made.
|
yeah, slimebeasts post is simply a religious belief with no real foundation. In fact Muslims, including myself, would argue that the biblical story is somewhat fudged and the true first born of Abraham was Ishmael (i.e. father of Arabs). Muslims contest that the land was given to Abraham, not Isaac and therefore under the religious sense it is for both Jews and Arabs.
|
Correction, it wasn't a religious argument. It was an argument based on how nations usually come to be - historically by a people self-righteously just claiming a piece of land, or in the modern era by UN decisions.
|
Its a very bad argument then, for the reasons mentioned above.
Are you American? If so, where will you be going when we give the Native Americans all their land back?
