Well they already occupied Palestine land, but it is unfair to transfer and occupy another land.\nHistorically, they had to choose among Palestine, Angola and other countries to set the Jewish nation they called later Israel and they had chosen Palestine claiming that their holy book promised them.

Very much so : they were to secure the holy land and the route to Jerusalem for Christian pilgrims.          America's modern crusade is rather more to secure Palestine for the Jews.

Well this is the problem - is Israel legitimate? Many people, particularly Jews will tell you that Isreal is the promised land, and was taken by the Arabs hundreds of years ago, but the land remains to those whom is was promised - the Jews.  Ity wasn't until the 2nd World War that a Jewsish state was created, but it took land away from innocent Palestinians.\n\nAmerica supports Israel, mainly because the Jewish lobby in American politics is very powerful, and so control the political stance on Israel, supporting it financially and with arms. Also, Israel is a power base in the MIddle East for Amercia, something they do not want to lose.

Well- guess your knowledge of history is ehavily influenced by those propaganda sites you read- up until 1973 the USA provided Israel with VERY FEW arms, in fact most of Israel's arsenal was bought from Europe or self built.  Even today with weaponry they purchase- they often strip the elctronics out and replace them with their own, superior versions.  A case in point was with the bombing of the Iranian nuclear reactor in the eighties- American airforce generals were flabbergasted at the performance of the Israeli F16s since the American ones were not capable of the same level of performance.\n\nAnd guess what- the drive for a state in the are started in the late 19th century- it was just that it was finally succesful after WWII.  And hey- guess what,Jews liberated from the concentration camps, and trying to return to their homes- were often attacked by their former neighbors.\n\nSo wehere would you have put a Jewsih state?  In Africa where it would have started a whole colnial issue?  In South America where they would not have been welcomed/  IN Europe where they had just seen their friends and family murdered?  In the end- Israel with their millenia long connection to it was the only option.\n\nAs for the UN partition plan- it gave countries to both Israel and the Palestinans.  Israel accepted the plan, but the Arab league decided to make sure their would be no Jewish state- and five countries attacked Israel as the state was proclaimed.  And Israel was victorous- the ARabs lost, and the Palestinians were the big losers- with their Arab brethren stealing their land- and forcing them into refugee camps.  And lets not forget- the estimate of Palestinan refugees was 400-600 thousand- the estinated number of Jewish refugees from Arab countries 800 thousand-1 million.\n\nWhat happened to the Jewish refugees- they were absorbed by the state, made full citizens and helped to establish themselv es after having all their money and possessions stolen by the Arab governments- unlike the Palestinian refugees who were deprived of their rights, denied citizenship in the countreies of those occupying them (Egypt of Jordan), and left to starve - until the UN started a special agency just to deal with their problem!

For some reason we seem to think we need Isreal as an ally, i think we would make more allies if we supported the palestians, Israel is a country that was imposed by the UN. It has got to be embarrassing if you need the UN to start a country for you.

The flag of Guatemala is designed in two colors: sky blue and white. Sky blue represents the fact that is a land located between two oceans, the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, and the white color signifies the purity of the country's values.\n\nThe white stripe between two blue stripes originated with the national flag of United Central America, although the Guatemalan version turns the stripes vertically rather than the original horizontal design.\n\nIn the center of the flag, there is the crest with the Resplendent Quetzal bird, a symbol of liberty, and the date of 15 September 1821, the date of Central America's independence from Spain. There are crossed rifles, indicating Guatemala's willingness to defend itself by force if need be, olive branches, the symbol for victory, and crossed swords, representing honor.\n\nThe current flag design dates to 1871. The quetzal previously appeared in the flag of Los Altos, Central America in the 1830s.

What a great question....KUDOS!!!....This was truly not a small matter and it seems it has become very important to human history. Jesus accuratly foretold this destruction. It marked the end of an exclusive relationship described in the Bible between the God of the Israelites and them as a people. The original promise to Abraham was that through the seed of Isaac all the nations of the earth would be blessed. True to the prophecy, the relationship God had with ancient Israel produced the messiah, and  the royal heir to the throne of the Kingdom of God. Every one now benefits, (if they just take the opportunity).\n\nThe opportunity for a special relationship with God is now open to anyone who wants to excersize faith in the ransomer Jesus Christ. \n\nThat said....back to the destruction of Israel by the Roman Army in 70CE. So terrible was that destruction that Josephus (Jewish historian) reports that over 1.1 million people were killed! almost 100,000 were taken captive. Many of those taken captive were tortured and killed on the road.....and the rest were hauled all over the then-known world to be made slaves. VERY IMPORTANT POINT: all jewish records and geneologies were then totally destroyed. No "jew" today can prove he is related to Abraham, and yet the ancient record is intact that Jesus is the messiah.\n\nAfter WWII and the Nazi persecution of the Jews, the UN and the world leaders set up a secular nation of Israel. This is not the "Kingdom" of Israel and has nothing to do with any Bible restoration prophecy. People today think it is according to prophecy, but they are seriously mistaken. Any restoration prophecies that really pertain to literal Israel were fulfilled long ago when they were released from Babylonian captivity. Any newer prophecies are fulfilled in a new Israel which is not the literal nation of Israel, but rather a spiritual nation of people made up of every nation and tongue today. Thier Jerusalem is a heavenly one. Their capital city is a heavenly government ruled by the resurrected Christ Jesus.\n\nJesus Christ, near the end of his lfe, stood on the hill overlooking Jerusalem and the temple....looked down at it and condemned their relationship with God.\n\nNow....looking at the modern situation...it gets very interesting....you see there are a great many Christian Zionists who think that Israel is still favored by God and they feel the Israelites have a god-given right to palestine....these people have HUGE pull in the affairs of the governments which support Israel. Believe it or not this zionist movement will do anything to prevent the current peace efforts from proceeding because they do not want Israel to loose any of their "god-given" land. (The peace plans or "road map to peace" calls for them to loose some)\nThese people interestingly think they are going to be raptured off the world scene so they do not have to deal with any of the nasty results of their meddleing. The Christian zionists are sadly mistaken and bad things will come from their involvement.....(They already have).\n\nGoing on.....ponder this....just 3 days before the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the US.....the United States and Israel walked out of the UN conference on racism...they turned their backs on the world community who had passed a resolution that stated that zionism equals racism. This conference was planned for years......the arab community for years planned to present this resolution at this very conference......I wonder.....Could it be.....that this was in fact the TRIGGER for the attacks on the WTC in New York and the pentagon? Were these Al Khada terrorists poised and waiting for this walk out? I say this is a possibility, but what do I know? This presents the question.....If the US was not so motivated by Christian Zionists and their political influence, would there have been an attack? Would Muslims have the same view that they have of Americans today? Thanks for aski

Consider foremost the common values that bind the US with the Middle East's only democracy, then the strategic value to the US of a strong Israel.\n\nAmerican aid to Israel was minimal until after the Six Day War, and only took off after Israel saved US ally Jordan from a PLO-Syrian invasion in 1970. The 1979 Camp David Accords, which secured peace between Israel and Egypt, mandated increased aid to Israel to compensate in part for Israel's return of the Sinai and the resulting loss of strategic depth, air bases, training grounds and oil fields. Israel's prescient destruction of Iraq's nuclear program in 1981 stopped Saddam Hussein from having nuclear weapons when he invaded Kuwait nine years later - nuclear weapons he could have used against US troops during the the first Gulf War.

The people began with Abraham. Then Isaac, then Jacob who had 12 children who then became the 12 tribes. They were in bondage for 700 year until God, through Moses, delivered them. After wandering in the wilderness due to unebelief, they came in to the land that God promised to them. King David captured the city that later became Jerusalem.\nAncient Israel ended when Babylon came and conquored it and brought all of the Israelites to their city.\nThat's not the end of the story, of course. But that is the answer to your question specifically.
