Israel's Creation - This was not a racist creation. Jew have been living in Israel for millenia. Jewish attachment to the land of Israel is a basic tennat of the religion and heritage. Many Arabs left Israel in 1948 at the behest of their leaders who felt they could crush the Jews in the war. Conversly an equal amount of Jews were expelled from Middle East countries at the same time. Israel absorbed these refugees, the Arab world chose to keep Arab refugees in camps.
May there be peace in our time soon

There were also Arabs that had been living in the area for millenia and more importantly at the time of creation. How many of the Israeli Jews that came to Israel during its creation and formation were living there at the time?
Muslims, Christians and Jews all have an attachment to the area and yet it is only the Jews who feel they have the right to come in and remove people from their homes.
The creation of Israel may not have been racist but it certainly was arrogant, ill-concieved and distgusts me.
