The UN Declaration of Human Rights note that everyone is entitled to a homeland.
What entitles them to Israel?
It is the origin of their ethnic group and their religion (depending on how you view it).
Does it mean they have a right to a monopoly on political rights?
I don't think so, actually. I think it should be a democracy with no special rights granted to anyone.
But if I had a choice between the Jews running things and the Palestinians, who would I choose? Backwards tribalist Islamists or a group of people that tend to have good education and upbringing?
BTW< I know it is extreme to call Palestinians backwards tribalist Islamists, but I do not know how else to describe people that parade their children around in mock suicide bomber outfits.
