[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5729216, member: 24302"] Some are. Some support the Palestinians. I guess in their minds there's nothing they can do that's too horrible if it means the Palestinians get their way. The Jews have been there 75+ years now. They fled what was done to them by the Germans to a Jewish state that the British empire set up for them. Historically it was their land that the Romans drove them off of. The Arabs also moved into the area from another place and drove out the Christians living there, leading to the Crusades. It's a matter of different peoples claiming the land and one coming out on top. The Muslims have no problem conquering and dominating others but can't tolerate it being done to them. Look at Iraq. Two million Christians driven from their homes by the Muslims. Communities that were there long before Iraq was conquered by Muslims. Ethnically the same people but no tolerance for a different religion. Yet I don't hear the Left demanding the Iraqis return those homes and monasteries to the Christians. The Left chooses to side with whoever is against what they're against. If the Muslims hate Christians then the Left sweeps under the rug the mistreatment of women and of gays. Evangelical Christians are great friends to the Israelis so of course the Left supports the Palestinians. The Left hates Christianity with a passion and is determined to suppress it. So the enemy of my enemy is my friend. [/QUOTE]
