Myron_J Tourist Reged: 09/19/05 Posts: 62 Re: Nakba- The Palestinian Catastrophe       06/12/06 02:39 PM Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   I am a settler, on the West Bank in Kfar Etzion..a Jewish settlement, on land (purchased by Jews before 1948) that was to become part of Palestine in 1948. I think the original post is biased, but legitamently so. It shows one perspective..in a powerful but fair way. The original poster admits that refugees were either forced out OR FLED..We too must admit to both these possibilities and also recognize that our War of Independance was a catastrophe for the Palestinians..one that did not have to happen if Partitioin would have been accepted by the Arab World. And we too have done wrongs. Some out of fear, or in the heat of battle, or due to need created by the rejectionism of our neighbors...or through moral insensitivity..We can not ignore our moral insensitivity. Israel has a right to Exist! As does Palestine. There has been too much suffering. We must learn to see theirs, even if we are not totally responsible...and we must realize that we are part of the game that has created the suffering. Post Extras
