39. What's that got to do with the comment you made about Palestinians being welcome elsewhere?
Palestinians are mostly either Christians or Muslims and are welcomed and can feel safe in many countries.

That's the comment I want to know what yr point is in saying it.

I don't recall asking you if you were Jewish, because I don't care what you are, nor where you claim to have resided. What I recall pointing out was the obvious fact that the post I replied to was incredibly one-eyed and blaming one 'side' for everything. I'd seriously suggest you attempt to gain an understanding and empathy for the Palestinians, who have been living under a brutal occupation for decades. You might understand then why it's kinda revolting to suggest that Palestinians grow up, show some charity and understand the needs of their occupiers (those needs appear to be taking as much territory as it can and making the lives of Palestinians difficult)...

There's many parts of the world that many people aren't safe in. It's not something unique to one group of people. Do you think that makes it acceptable for them to take territory that isn't theirs and expect the people there to grow up and accept it?
