Could you tell me why the Palestinians have to recognize the zionist state's right... (OP)
Could you tell me why the Palestinians have to recognize the zionist state's right to exist on Arab Palestinian Land ?

June 17, 2009
- Is it because God gave his chosen people my land ,even though most of the citizen of the zionist state are not even from the region ?
- Is it because the Arab Palestinians have to pay for Hitler and the European's ruthlessness ?
- Is it because the zionist state never respected International Law ?
- Or is it because we are Arabs ,our blood,suffering ,dignity etc....do not count ?
No other people in the history of life on this Earth have been asked to do this ,and that's why I am asking .......Why ?
It is in the name of their religion - you have people trying to justify the secular state by using the bible (eg evengelicals) and then you have zionist doing the same thing - it brings Judiasim into - then the Jews that are against the whole thing are saying that its against Judaism.
Zionism is a secualr movement for the most part its not about the messiah or aynthing, merely a homeland for the jewish people.

What a lot of people fail to realize is that Judiasm is more than a religion it is a racial and ethnic identity as well. While one may have a nominal belief in God, they can still consider themselves Jewish.

zionist do use the bible and religous arguments - Your right that zionism from start was a secular movment - but ofcourse to win the hearts and minds of the religous people they had to use religoin - where else do you think the argumnet that God gave Jews the land comes from? - I've even seen some zionist trying to use the Quran to justify the state of modern Isreal!
Do you think the pious don't sin?
They merely:
Veiled themselves and didn't flaunt it
Sought forgiveness and didn't persist
Took ownership of it and don't justify it
And acted with excellence after they had erred - Ibn al-Qayyim

I think the bible (or the Quran) is used as a historical evidence of Jews living there, conquering it etc. And all the rant about promised land is more of a poetic justification.
I'm talking about secular zionism of course.

So Jews now are a race, scientifically that's impossible.
