Well Arabs see Israel's claim to Jerusalem about as relevant as the Italians claiming their right to England because for a period of time they owned it.

I think both Palestinians and Israeli's have a right to live there. ATM though I'm more pissed off at the US for supplying billions of dollars in aid to Israel which has more or less led to this War on Terror. Trust me, if the US stopped pouring money into Israel, their problems with terrorism would disappear for the most part.

Although I criticise the US Gov, I don't want any Americans to take this personally, as you often do, when people have a dig at your country. Trust me I think the American people are way cooler than the US Gov.

Qualifier: Even though the US have aided Israel, at least now they are trying to help the Palestinians as well.

Let's hope the plan works so we can all get over this Middle East thing.
