Reply #11: had the palestenains made a country.... [View All]

[pelsar]

perhaps i take a more optismistic view..but as i see it, as israel prospered and grew, the palestenains who would be neighbors (dont forget pre 48 many villages and jewish farming communities did get along....would have been "dragged along.' First as the "workers and laborers" imported from arab palestine, but as they took their knowledge home the influence would have its affect.....there would have been two small countries working as neighbors, one with access to the arab world, the other with access to the western world

what a shame.....i could have been traveling all over the arab world by now....
