The Jews are not demonstrating with their dead on the streets, yelling and chanting and asking for revenge.
The Jews are not promoting brain washing the children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims.
The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics.
The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.
The Jews don't have the economic strength of petroleum, nor the possibilities to force the world's media to see "their side" of the question.
Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.
Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel's part for whatever reason, the following two sentences really say it all:
If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence.
If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.

see if you can find the allocation of the world's wealth. it's a lot easier to excel in medicine or physics when a person doesn't have to worry about the plague or their next meal.

That's true. But perhaps if education was more of a priority instead of blaming others, they would be able to learn a lot, contribute to the world, and become wealthy enough to not have to worry about the plague or getting food. Plus, there are a number of Arab countries with unbelievably wealthy leaders and greedy individuals. Why don't they blame those individuals?

The arabs also dont have the nice aid from the US totaling $84,854,827,000.
Nobody is right in this conflict, Israeli air strikes have killed hundreds of civilians.
You need to realize the palestinians dont hate the jews for the hell of it. They believe that it is rightfully their land, and the Jews shouldnt have been plopped down in the middle east by great britain after WWII.
And your little final sentence doesnt really make sense. There would be more violence because they believe what israel is doing is wrong. Thats like saying back in the US Civil War
If the north dropped their weapons there would be peace.
If the south dropped their weapons there would be war.

I agree with you...
It's funny how people complain that in the USA, 10% of people have 40% of the wealth.
That disparity is even more dramatic in Arab, Asian and Pacific Rim nations.

you need a history lesson, but it is fighting over land. It has been forever, nothing is going to stop ever.
As long as people are taught to hate and destroy, any discussion of academics, religion, politics, money, etc. is pointless.
Is it just a coincidence that islamic people are taught to hate and destroy and then islamic people are the source of terrorist organizations around the world?
When was the last time a jewish person bombed the USA, Great Britain, Spain, India, Australia, China, Japan???

That makes no sense, Israel is allies with all those, or at least on decent terms.
When is the last time palestine bombed Egypt, Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, or Qatar?
The real question is when was the last time Israel bombed Palestinian civilians? Oh, On sunday an airstrike killed 54 people, including many children. Good job Israel!
"Last week, an Israeli strike on a van carrying militants in Gaza City left nine people dead, seven of them civilians." (bbc news)
Wow! that shows how much Israel values life! If they can get two militants, its worth the seven innocent civilians!

The difference is that Israel is targeting militants with accidental civilian casualties as a result. Whereas muslims often deliberately target civilians sometimes in non-combat zones. As far as terrorism goes there was just a shooting up here in Seattle at the Jewish Federation by a Hezbollah sympathizer who shot 7 people...all women including one pregnant.

Actually, this is why it was such a good question. I get to prove my own point.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4711745.stm http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/C4FDDEA1-90B1-46A5-A17C-5B4D96233349.htm http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/7EA6CE37-4DCD-4389-8A58-4D5607493CF2.htm http://www.wjla.com/headlines/0605/233031.html http://www.iranmania.com/News/ArticleView/?NewsCode=32540&NewsKind=Current+Affairs
I could find 100s of bombings by islamic people in islamic countries. None of those links refer to Iraq. If Iraq isn't a prime example of ISLAMIC VIOLENCE, I don't know what is.
