What I dont understand is the whole Palestinian conflict. I understand how all of the arab muslims think Israel stole that chunk of land from the Palestinians back after WW2, basically as payment for the Jews suffering during the war.
Here is where I miss their logic.
1.) For starters, Nothing near or around Israel is "muslim" land, it is all Jewish. The Jews go back, what..3000 years? Whereas Islam started around 600AD, not too far from Christianities start.
2.) Jeruselem is holy to muslims how? Oh yeah, Mohammed ascended to heaven from Jeruselem. ACTUALLY, his "soul" did ..but Mohammed never EVER went to Jeruselem. He had a "seizure" and produced a vision that said Jeruselem was holy..so the entire basis for Muslims thinking that land is holy is based on a farce. I mean, Ive got some huge tracts of land in space I want to sell to these sand monkeys.
3. Palestinians = nomadic Syrians, that is all.
I have never quite understood how, after the Muslim empire was able to wrestle control of the middle east area away from the Holy Roman empire that all of a sudden it was theirs and forever theirs. Their historical claim to the lands are completley false.
Too bad most people have zero knowledge of Europe and the middle east.
