You mindlessly rattle on with cliche's and slogans not taking the time to learn.LOL, the author was far from neutral in his views. Offered few first sources in support of his diatribe and all in all it was a boring read. Also as I recall he repeatedly repudiates his own stories by admitting he has very little source material. I can't remember for what class but I was tortured into ready what can at best be call a mundane and unsubstantiated view of the Arab Muslim colonial period.
Or in short
Yeah I read it ;--)
Whats your point ? Or are you simply avoiding the fact that the Arab Muslims are colonists in a foreign land
The colonists are the Jews. They came from elsewhere, the Muslims and Christians of Palestine are, by definition, the native people.
The Ottomon colonists were not, by definition, native people. The Syrian, Lebaneses and Egyptian squatters were not, by definition, native people.
Take some time to learn, your definitions.
