@4Him: Wrong sets of answers. But am sure it serves the Biblical purposes to lie. I guess we will find that quality and gimmick of bending realities to fit new "truth, an agenda of deceit" in where we should find them. I don't want to begin by naming names now. It is pretty obvious where I can go with this and whose names.
1. There are no arab "palestinians", these arabs are simply tools in the hands of theocratic murderers in Is'lam to deligitimize the Jewish state they failed to defeat in 3 wars.
Am sure there no African Yorubas as well. I am not sure that you know the difference between ethnic groupings. There are major groups and minor group and even sub groups under the minor groups. Let me show you something: Take the case of the Yorubas. From it in Nigeria, you have groups like the Ijebus or the Egbas. Eunder the Ijebus you have the Remos and others, like the (Omo Alagemo Merindiloguns, where you find the Ijebu Ode people and others) From this Alagemo Merindilogun people you have the Omo Obantas, the Ijebu Ode people. If you have these in Yoruba major group of Africa alone, how then do you deceitful think you can obliterate the Palestinian Arabs from Palestine? Again maybe you should try to put Yoruba people in the place of Palestinians. Am sure the equation will change dramatically. Or replace them with the Igbos. Am sure you must have known what is called Biafra.
2. The jews didnt displace the arabs, rather the Syrians, Jordanians, Lebanese . . . did by ordering them out so they could wreck massacre on the jews. They failed woefully and the rest is history. 20% of the Israeli state today is arab . . . they wont be there if the jews intended to replace arabs (who are not indigenous to that land by the way).
We are talking about the Palestianians here. That is completely different from "arabs" which you continue to use as your escape route. You can see your deceit here.You will say arabs in one place and turn to Syrian, Lebanese, etc in the other. But in either places you have failed to say Palestnian Arabs. There is something called that you know. Your "new History" is in front of the Nairalanders to see. Its amazing how you could present an argument that may show to biased mind like yourself that Palestine was without Arabs and or Muslims before any of the major migrations of the European jews to Palestine. Well, how long has Masjid Aqsa been standing in Jerusalem (Al Quds) now? Did you forget about the crusade here, because it is convenient for you to purposely forget this major christian adventure, just because you want to cajole us?
3. The truth is that for 19yrs when Judea/Samaria (the westbank) and Gaza were in arab hands, no one talked of giving the "palestinians" a state.
You present an argument as if the future is in your hand. Or has it been revealed to you, Sir David? And God willing, while you are still alive, you will see a statehood of Palestine. For me I think that the Palestinians, both Muslims and Christians and others among them need to supplicate to God for His aid against their oppressors.
4. Prior to 1948, the term "palestinian" referred to a jew.
Yes, a Jew in the Ghetto of Europe, etc. You know little about history. And what was the population of "Jews", oh no, sorr David, "palestian" do we have in "Palestine" in 1700 and prior to 1850? I wonder why they had their Zionist world congress meetings in Europe especially since they were the ones who populated "palestine" prior to the 2 world wars, according to you?
5. Judea/Samaria fell within Israeli boundaries until it was conquered by the Jordanians in 1948 war of independence.
Theories and poor evidence that can not justify the theory. I do hope that you remember saying that even with 3 wars the Arabs as a whole failed to conquer?
6. Jordan is 75% of the former British mandate of Palestine . . . how is it that the "palestinian" arabs arent fighting to be a part of Jordan?
I wonder why Jews have not returned to the towns and cities that they occupied for so many centuries in Europe to fight for them? I wonder why they did not fight for the "ghettos' of Europe where they were called Juderen? I wonder why Rothchilds families are still in Europe and so many Jews in America are anot in "Israel?" Or is Europe and or America part(s) of the state of Israel?
7. Until 1922, Jordan was simply a river in Palestine.
You lack the foundation of history of the Jews and their rvals as you put it, the Arabs in general and the Palestian arabs in particular. Jordan River is still in existence. I don't think that you know anythig about transjordan, a name the British gave to the larger arab land which included Jordan and others. And by the way who should know his own identity better, The Jordanian Arabs, The Palestinian Arabs or the colonizing power of England, about Palestine and Jordan?
8. Jordan IS palestine.
It makes sense as much as Niger Republic is Nigeria, or Dahomey is Nigeria or Cameroun is Nigeria.
9. The present rulers of Jordan are actually descendants of the Emir of Mecca which is nowhere near palestine.
Which Emir is that, David? I want you to name names, here? You are a riot with your huge lies.
The truth doesnt seem to be setting you free.
The proverbial pot calling Kettle "black," applies here.
@ Backslider:
The Truth of the fact is that since the departure of Jesus you can not have a mosaic Jew because missing is judaic and Levitical office.
Is this not we have been saying to you and you keep denying it, until now? That you have replaced that old testament, "Mosaic Jew's judaic and levitical office" laws and commandment with your New Testament. It is very strange, however, that Jesus himself said that he came to fulfil the OT rules and laws. And that no part of it should be left unfulfilled, even a jot. And further he spoke about anyone who does away with this OT laws and commandments and or encouraged other(s) to not fulfil it, will be low in the kingdom of heaven.
To be low in the kingdom of heaven should not be other than condemned to hell. But of course you don't believe that, nor do you believe there is hell anyway. But tell me this if Jesus replaced this laws and commandments and by his presence rendered useless and should amount to nothing but just to occupy Biblical pages, how then do yo explain the injuction of jesus to the future people about not dong away with the laws and commandments which he himself fulfilled (kept and observed as example to show how impotant they are)? You will have to agree that somebody is a liar her: Jesus statement is different from what the Christians are saying and doing. We know it was Jesus that was lying here.
We have now Jesus our levitical and judaic Leader God and saviour.
You embellish to much. But please answer my question about about the law that Jesus kept and warn against not keeping it by the future generations. And it is these laws and commandments of Moses that you abandoned. I ask you are you now not wrong considering the prophetic saying of Jesus, wherein he warned against doing exactly what you christians are doing today? Disregarding the laws of Moses? And the consequence of this action, you should remember is being called least in the Kingdom of God, that is being thrown into the fire of hell. And would you not suppose the people in this group will not be received welcomely by Jesus, who will say to them to get away from him and he does not know them.
Come to think of it he does not know you, not by religion (he did not start nor command a different religion apart from what the prophets used to practice and preached), not by your deeds (your abandoning his commandment as it concerns Mosaic laws and commandments, which he himself observed and warned aganst the least abandonement there of) and definitely not by your face/physicality.
