Ravi
you claim to admire the Jewish people. Eichmann also claimed to admire Jews during his trial in Jerusalem in 1961, and Mengele's diaries also mentioned admiration of Jews. So personally, I would not feel comfortable in your presence. You are probably the single most prolific commentator on this website, whicih indicates an obsession with Jews, probably to the degree that it would interfere with your job. So yes, I think you are a Jew hater. If you want to benefit humanity, work for the reunification of India and Pakistan, because Pakistan was created on the belief that Muslims could not get a fair shake in India. Since Indian Muslims have done very well in India, there is no need for Pakistan. Also work on the Tamil-Sinhalese conflict, which has been far more bloody (and far less newsworthy) than the Israel-Arab conflict

< Israel needs to ask itself why>

Because Israel identifies itself as a Jewish state.

Israel may have been created in 1948 but people forget that Palestine as a Jewish Homeland was created in 1919. As was Transjordan, Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia etc. That is the time a homeland for the Jews of Arab lands was first created. 1948 was just changing the territory from a British Protectorate to a State. Palestine (the Jewish Homeland) also included Gaza and the West Bank.

Ravi Singh you are so clueless that you don't even have your facts right. There are NO 1967 borders – they were never agreed upon as borders – they are no more than armistice lines – as no peace agreement was ever reached between Israel and her neigbours after the 6 Day War.

Wrong John Hill. There was a movement to establish a Jewish Homeland in Palestine well before World War II. That war simply made it more urgent. Did you never hear of the Balfour Declaration?

Ravi, you really need to get an education. Israel-bashing has become the new way for anti-Semites to spew hatred. These morons( and you are one of them) claim that Israel is wrong in all she does – and what she does is refuse to curl up and die. Israel is mostly populated by JEWS – did you get that memo? Denying Israel the right to defend herself is denying JEWS the right to defend themselves – and that is anti-Semitic. Every other country has the right to protect its citizens from terror and murder – why not Israel? Oh wait – that must be because we are Jews. You and other like you need to come to grips with the notion that Israel is here to stay – and that means the Jews are too. Get used to it.

Ravi Singh , since you are such an expert on the Muslim world, you should know that Muslims do not want peace with Jews or anyone else. They want to conquer all non-muslims. They want to kill Jews and the jewish nation. It is their theology and the fact that they are inculcated with Jew hatred from cradle to grave.

Equating criticism of the Muslim world/diaspora with Islamophobia is a prime Muslim tactic. Everyone wrongly accepts it.

Ravi, considering that you know so little about the most basic aspects of the conflict, (um… the UN did NOT create Israel. Nothing even resembling that happened), perhaps you are not someone who has the authority to determine that peace is easily possible within 5 years (!) in the ME if only Israel could take you advice."

Ravi Singh. You are now showing your true colours, calling Israel greedy. The Arab world needs to put its house in order before I would offer any more concessions. They are simply not to be trusted. Just look at what they do to each other! What makes you think they would behave any better to Jews considering the anti-Jewish indoctrination in the Arab world. I should concentrate on your own problems with the Pakistanis, if I were you, before offering your advice to Israel.

Ravi Singh, I've been following your comments for many months, and I think much of what you say is anti-Semitic. You completely disregard our historical connection to the land of Israel. Our independent state existed for thousands of years before there were any Muslims or Palestinians. One of our finest contributions to civilization, the Talmud, covers every aspect of human existence, and is the blueprint for our executive, legislative, and judicial branches, and legal code — the corpus of which is intricately tied to the land of Israel. Our civilization has existed both in and out of the land of Israel for millenia, but the imperative is habitation of the Land. Anyone can live there as loyal citizens, not as an independent, hostile entity. You show unerring subservience to the Palestinian position, completely ignoring our rightful claim and ownership thereof. If you defend Palestinian rights on the basis of presumptive occupation up to 1948, or thereabouts, you per force have to concede that that occupation began at some point after 636 (the birth of Mohammad). The Palestinian claim to a homeland only emerged with the demise of the Ottoman occupation of the Land of Israel, and the commencement of the British Mandate. Their claim coincided with our return. But if you are honest, and I'm skeptical if you are, one has to admit that there never was an independent Palestinian state, or any other independent entity in the Land of Israel between 70 CE (when we were defeated by the Romans) and 1948 when we ejected the last Western occupier (England). In fact, between 70 – 1948, we never relinquished ownership or abandoned hope of returning In fact, we have been the sole independent nation-state to inhabit the land (Ancient Israel, the Davidic dynasty and the Hasmoneneans; and now the State of Israel. So my question to you is: on what basis do you draw the line and say the statute of limitations on legitimate claims to the land is the 20th century when the Arabs and Jews claim the same territory? On what basis do you say that our claim hitherto, between 70 CE and 1948 is null and void, and that we must grant equal status to the Palestinian claim. As to the side commentary, let's take this offline. What's your email address?
