Muffti could use some enlightenment on this
- – - – - – - – - – -
One of the claims made against Israel is that it is a colonial imposition by Europeans – implying that Jewish presence in Israel is as arbitrary as Dutchmen were in the Dutch East Indies.

That is why the Arabs are so hot to obscure and deny any historical Jewish connection to this specific strip of land.

xisnotx: I know this! I know this! OK there’s this tahini that they make in Nablus/Schem and its called Karouan or something. And I wrote a post about it and visited the factory and that’s also the name of Islam’s 4th holiest city in Ethiopia of all random places. I think there’s also an old Mosque involved.That’s all I know without resorting to Google. Do I win anything?

“Islam’s 3rd holiest religious site,”

I think I partially answer your question in the Shlomo Sand post and discussion, Muffti. And I don’t think that the answer is that it confers the sole right, but it confers a right. Don’t forget that it’s not just ancestors who lived there but there was a continuous Jewish presence there, even if not the majority population once the Romans were done and the early Arabs arrived.

What truly confers the right of Israel to exist where it does is not just the historic link but the fact that it was forced to fight for its existence as a state and won that fight. However, the Palestinian denial of any Jewish connection to the land of Israel is there because it negates these historic links that prove the Palestinians are not the only natives there.

To answer Muffti’s question, I think it’s rather a somewhat nostalgic sentiment of “told you so” than a convincing claim to anthing. Alternatively, people could be preparing a huge bowl-full of salad.

Muffti could use some enlightenment on this – why would a clear presence that peopel you are related to thousands of years before give you any right to the land now? Haven’t we shown over and over again that much more recent habitation means shit when it comes to honouring territorial rights (native americans, native australians, native canadians, the mayans in mexico…)

So why is it an issue whether or not there was a clear jewish presence?
