| "Would it justify it to claim that a mythical being gave it to my g-g-g-grandfather?" (David) No, it would not. But it is a problem of political freedom for a whole nation, much more than simply of real-estate lost and reclaimed. For 20 centuries, the Jews have stayed a distinct nation, and there is no reason at all this nation should be deprived of a homeland of its own. "After being forcibly exiled from their land, the people kept faith with it throughout their Dispersion and never ceased to pray and hope for their return to it and for the restoration in it of their political freedom. Impelled by this historic and traditional attachment, Jews strove in every successive generation to re-establish themselves in their ancient homeland." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Independence_(Israel)#Context_and_content Ps/ "We are being asked to support on the 60th anniversary etc ..." (David) That is not true. No one is asking you to support anything. |
