“What If Jews Had Taken the Palestinian Path?” WSJ 6/20
Posted by madjillmom on June 22, 2011
I read a great opinion piece in the 6/20 Wall Street Journal. Written by Warren Kozak, it shows how the Jews would be if they had taken the same path as the Palestinians. In 1945, the Jews were refugees displaced by Hitler and the war. The Jews built their nation by hard work, created something from nothing but the land of their ancestral home.
“The U.N. offered the two-state solution that we hear so much about in 1947. The problem then, and now, is that it was accepted by only one parts, Israel.”
The Palestinians chose and continue to choose to be permanent refugees, living off welfare, nurturing extreme hate, exalting terrorism, constantly believing that the only real problem in the world is the existence of their next door neighbor, Israel. This continues to play out, never-ending because of the choices of the Palestinians. Kozak laments the generations of Palestinians who have wasted their lives and potential. Years ago, I read about the difference in the hovels and trash of a Palestinian area compared to the nearby Israeli town or settlement. Generations of Palestinians lost to hate and victimhood. Very sad. One group built a homeland, the other built nothing but hate.
Read this if you can get it.
