    Not really a national army. More of a militia than an army. There was no army on the other side either.

    What is your point?

    I disagree with paying professors lower wages will lead to better colleges. The issue with colleges is the fact it's much easier for people to get in even if they are not ready or are not college material. The bar is certainly lower today and I think it should be more higher with less people being accepted.

    Generation X and baby boomers have certainly lowered the bar for the next generation.

    Their predecessors didn't fight any war they had no national army to declare war.

    PLO and Hamas had no army to declare war with in 1948 or 1967. and in 1947 neither the Yishuv and Palestinians had no armies to declare war with it was simply a situation that was allowed to spiral out of control.

    Your links do not support your position.

    Not sure what Nazi's have to do with Islamic terror groups considering these terror group came into being long after the Nazis were defeated.

    Parties matter more than the people unfortunately.

    and iraq, egypt, transjordan. Syria wasn't the only one.

    In a perfect world, Iran, Israel and Saudi Arabia would put aside their differences and work together to achieve stability in the Middle East.

    I guess when the passionate defender starts demeaning those who oppose him. But is a poster demeaning others necessarily trolling or a lack of maturity on that posters part?
  14. herples
    I believe very few people actually troll. I think most are just incredibly stubborn in their position. A troll could care less about their position only the effect their posting will have on others.

    Zionism no longer exists it died out when Israel was created. There is no influence from it in western politics.

    A very flimsy connection considering the Palestinian cause was created before the mufti became a Nazi.

    Majority of Pogroms occured in Europe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogrom#List_of_events Pogroms committed by Mostly Europeans. I am not explaining away all pogroms just pointing out the one you posted is disputed. The only thing I am contesting is the influence Nazis had on the Palestinian cause.

    from the first paragraph of the article you posted.

    You have made similar strawman arguments similar to this one in this thread to me and it does nothing to help whatever position it is you are trying to defend.

    The dislike of Jews started when the British carved a piece of land out for the Jewish people. Considering Jews were living in middle east countries before certainly it wasn't as prevalent or as strong as it is today. Same in Europe.

    Well you can put any figure you want it doesn't change the fact that people solely responsible for the extermination of the Jews were the Nazis, a German group.

    Their motivation for the hatred of Jews comes from what the Palestinian people see as encroachment of their land from the establishment of a Jewish homeland in the middle of their land. The Nazi motivation was from what the German peoples belief that Jews cause Germany to fail and the race concept that was a part of the Nazi ideas. Nationalism tends to take an us vs. them view we have seen it in Spain and Italy.

    I am not arguing about the reasons for Palestinian nationalism just when it originated and it technically originated before 1920, earlier if you consider it nothing more than a subset of Arab nationalism.
