WOW! Bush has said that their is more than a better chance at obtaining a peace agreement between Palestine and Israel. Now after completing SIX completed agreements that provided ALL that Arafat wanted and that he did not sign one could believe that a peace described by Bush is more than feasible. HOORAY ! Bush ...though he fucked up somewhat on other issues he could be successful with this initiative of peace between the parties.
Power of the Media - they say "Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were displaced" but on the other hand: "several wars were fought involving Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon" and this is the interesting part:
Who started those wars? these countries. why? they did not accept the UN decision. Try to query a bit more on how these lands were occupied and under what circumstances.
Try to find out what happened to the Palestinians in Jordan, BBC happily share information about Palestinians refugees without detailing Israel's history.
All those who read this article and wants to know the truth about Israel should query for facts (non partial).
