SO if one of there PA students are listening to there history lesson on Biblical History and they ask so teacher Mohammed "Who was Jesus? an Arab or Jew? do the billions of Christians believe Jesus the Arab is the SON OF GOD or JESUS the Jew is the SON OF GOD? As I pointed out in this Thread they cannot even mention Jesus maybe they should ask Arafat about Jesus so they can expand on there warpped version of Biblical history...

I thought Mohammed of the Koran couldn't read anyways....

The PA is struggling with the challenge of creating a Palestinian national identity when no Palestinian national history exists.

This is exactly right. The Arabs of Palestine do not share a collective history, so they do not have much vision for the future as a 'nation'. That is one reason why they are currently turning on themselves. There is an opportunity for them to unite, but that opportunity has brought along dozens of opportunists like Arafat and others who seek to exploit it for personal gain, which only reinforces the divisions.

The Arabs of Palestine are like most other Arabs, they are tribal and relate to their clans. They have not been very nationalistic, and only a few who understood the power of nationalism were able to strike deals with the west to take control. It takes a form of fascism to unite them, like the Ba'athists in Iraq and Syria, the fascism of Nasser in Egypt, or the religious fascism of the Saudi Wahabbis - and indeed the patriarchal family clan structure is a form of fascism in itself.

But in the WB the powerful families who control loyalties like the Husseinis, Nashashibis, etc have not surrendered their loyalties to the Arafat's PLO. Add to this mix the hardline fundamentalists like Hamas, Al-Aqsa, Hezbullah, and the other clans and gangs and platoons of security services (who, I should add, are often recruited from the powerful families in a deal made with the PLO leader) you have no easy way to enact positive change on the peace front. Every small time thug, family elder, clan leader, etc wishes to protect his interests.

It's all Da Jooos' fault!

(Yep, actually, it is; Joshua & his successors should have obeyed the Lord's command, and completely wiped ALL of the Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hittites, Hivites, Jebusites, Prevertites, and those other tribes out.)

Tinfoil Hat Alert! There were no Arabs and Muslims in Eretz Israel prior to the 7th Century AD. Any one who says otherwise is a certifiable liar.
