Yodhe23 said: the indigenous population shouldn't lose their right to live where they live(d). At the beginning of the Zionist movement in 1808, the Jewish nation was the one most recently sovereign between the Jordan river and the sea, since the 135 C. E. Bar Kokhba revolt, or the revolt of Heraclius. Any settlers from the surrounding area, or the Arabian peninsula, didn't magically get national rights just by settling and/or occupying Roman Syria Palestina and its successor provinces. The Jews are indigenous to Palestine. ...At the briefest instant following creation all the matter of the universe was concentrated in a very small place, no larger than a grain of mustard. The matter at this time was very thin, so intangible, that it did not have real substance. It did have, however, a potential to gain substance and form and to become tangible matter. From the initial concentration of this intangible substance in its minute location, the substance expanded, expanding the universe as it did so. As the expansion progressed, a change in the substance occurred. This initially thin noncorporeal substance took on the tangible aspects of matter as we know it. From this initial act of creation, from this ethereally thin pseudosubstance, everything that has existed, or will ever exist, was, is, and will be formed. - the RaMBaN, 1194 - 1270 ג וּשְׁאַבְתֶּם-מַיִם, בְּשָׂשׂוֹן, מִמַּעַיְנֵי, הַיְשׁוּעָה. - Yeshayahu 12:3 |
