2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

This is a loaded question. It pretends every supporter of Israel also supports the current government, the illegal occupation, the ongoing war, and throwing the Geneva convention out.
I support Israel's right to exist as a sovereign state and a homeland for the Jewish people.
But I support none of the above.
And no, I don't have a good solution for this age-old conflict either.
The Jewish homeland was formed by killing and kicking out people who were living there.
As were most countries.
And the Jewish people were killed and kicked out everywhere they lived for centuries prior to that.
That not Palestinians fault.
Why not give Jews half of Germany?
As a German, I'd be fine with that. They can have the Eastern half.
Or Sitka, Alaska?
That didn't work out so well.
I read the book because my wife is from Sitka. Apparently there is a disproportionately large Jewish population in real life as well, though not nearly like in the book.
