Quote of the Day

By Gldmeier @gldmeier
Our connection to this land is strong and deep. This has been our land for more than 3000 years. Many nations have come and gone, while we have remained on this land... 
What is Netanyahu's connection to this land? He has no connection to it. He can go back to his roots in Brooklyn or anywhere else. Ask any Palestinian about his sources, and he will spread before you the entire chain of his family.. we are masters of this land since the beginning of history. Foreigners have no place here.
Whoever does not learn from history will not be able to learn anything. Using force wont bring about results. Colonialism has ruled, and has been thrown into the garbage can of history. While all the countries agree that the Palestinians deserve a country, Netanyahu tries to convince himself and change history. The Palestinians wont disappear from the area until they receive their independence and the Palestinian State in the 1967 borders with the holy Jerusalem as its capital.
  -- Palestinian Ambassador to the United Nations Riyad Mansour
That's funny. he compares Israel to the empires of old. We can barely hold on to this tiny little piece of land, but he thinks we are equals to empires the likes of Great Britain, Rome, Greece, the Mongols, among many others.
Also, the Palestinians have been here for 3000 years while the Jews are new here.. that's why we have all this archeology proving the history of the Jews in this land, Remind me what archaeological findings have shown the long history of the Palestinians on this land.
I particularly found humorous the statement calling on Netanyahu to go back to Brooklyn...
