you tell it like it is, Gunny. bravo.
the towns of Nazareth and Akko, for example, are populated by arab muslims and christians who are Israeli citizens. They have representation on the Knesset....they are players in Israeli politics. That is because, along about 1948, when the arab league told them to leave their homes and go spend a few weeks in Damascus while the arab world made short work of those silly jews and then they could come back, the folks in Nazareth took a pass, stayed where they were and are now Israelis.... arab muslim and christian israelis. and the ones that did go to damascus for a few weeks died there and their families are still there and israeli jews are farming their land for them. Bottom line: if you bet the farm and lose, you lose the farm. tough shit.
Yup!
