Ever Wondered What is the Root Cause of Israel-Palestinian Conflict?

June 10, 2007

The word “Extremist” is redefined by history to specifically target “fundamentalist Muslims”. There are alternative uses to this word as well, consider the case of Jews, for example.

“In other words, as long as the Jews believed that they were acting as instruments of God�s will, they did not have to follow the laws of gentile nations. As Israelis have moved to the religious right, a shift propelled by the rationale and experience of Zionism itself, Zionist advocates have shown an increasing willingness to justify their human rights abuses as a Jewish prerogative.”

Yes, the Jews believe that they are the most preferred nation by “God”, and hence should retun to a land given to them by God.

“The theology of chosenness offered another advantage; it did limit Zionist ambitions to Palestine alone. The Lord�s promise was not restricted to Canaan; in a few more generous verses, He had expanded the Jewish inheritance to include all the lands between the Nile and Euphrates (Genesis: 15.18). With present-day borders, this expansive Israeli empire would include Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and perhaps more. If the Zionists could successfully use the Bible to claim Palestine, they could invoke the same divine authority to claim the rest of the Arab Middle East as well.” DAWN Encounter

“Zionism is also complex and also comes from deep within Jewish history with the same sense of exile and return. Zionism also confirms that Jews are special in their suffering and is explicit that Jews should ‘return’ to a land given to them, and only them – by God if they are religious, or by history if they are not – because they simply are not safe anywhere else on earth.” Ziopedia.org

Ironic it is that the same chauvinistic drive caused the murder of millions of Jews, and now the Jews want to relive that, with their roles reversed.

The article on Ziopedia.org is informative, however, there still is a mystery regarding unwavering American support for Israel. The article covers it but still this does not explain the whole situation. According to Dr. Shahid Masood, there seems to be some religious connection.

Whatever the case, the present “baseless” conflicts in Lebanon and Iraq by Americans and Israel can be adequately explained by this.
