Im just wondering. Have we ever provided European troops to the Israelis, like we have to America for all of the wars in the middle east?

No NO NO - the Russians are the enemy. Not the nation that pumps out
Porn, weapons,nukes,lawyer tv shows, and can't look after their own people properly through healthcare. 1000 bases worldwide. The Japanese can't get them out of their country, they'e tried. |

It's a genuine question. If the Israelis haven't been able to get rid of the palestinian problem in 5 years, how is it that we haven't yet attempted to liberate them? Or have we done that at some point?

Palestine exists - Trans Jordan was formed by the UN in 1948.
It's not enough to eat your 73 percent of the cake they want the other bit too. Arabs living in Palestine in 1947 (67 percent of total population) get 73 percent of land. Jews living in Palestine in 1947 (30 percent of total population)get 27 percent of the land Christians living in the land in 1947 (3 percent) get sweet FA. The land was owned by the TURKS (1517-1917) then Britain (1917-47) There were no Palestinians, only arabs. The UK is four nations on one strip. Should the Scottish, Welsh and Irish fK off? They occupy the land, they own it. It's the rule of occupation. |

Security forces have surrounded the Israeli embassy in the Jordanian capital, Amman, amid reports of an attack.
A BBC reporter at the scene says the immediate vicinity has been locked down but authorities have not released details. Media reports citing security sources say one person is dead and one injured. The BBC has not be able to verify this. Israeli authorities are believed to be evacuating embassy staff. The heavily protected embassy is located in the Rabiyeh neighbourhood, a residential district of Amman. On Friday, thousands of Jordanians protested in Amman against Israel over the installation of metal detectors at a site sacred to both Muslims and Jews in Jerusalem. Jordan is the custodian of Muslim religious sites in the city. |

Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned Israel's security precautions at the site, before he departed for a visit to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar.
"No one can expect the Islamic world to remain unresponsive after the humiliation Muslims suffered with the restrictions at the Noble Sanctuary." Pope Francis said on Sunday he was alarmed by the violence and called for dialogue and moderation to help restore peace. "I am following with trepidation the grave tension and violence of recent days in Jerusalem. I feel the need to express a heartfelt call for moderation and dialogue," the pope told pilgrims gathered under blazing sunshine in St Peter's Square. The United Nations Security Council announced on Saturday it would meet on Monday to discuss the situation after Sweden, Egypt and France urgently requested the meeting. |

Can I build a christian Church at Mecca?
This is the site of two Jewish Temples. the third holiest site to muslims? the night journey - Muhammid had a dream that he went up to god from the furthest mosque, on his winged horse Pegasus(i mean Buraq), the mosque was not named by him? It was later decided to fk up the jews. in this story, which never was in the quran. that's how holy it was? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isra_and_Mi%27raj the abomination which makes desolate. BURAQ. |

also referred as al-ka`bah al-musharrafah (The Holy Kaaba), I had a dream Jesus said i was to jump up and down on a black cube in Mecca 100 times. it'll be the third holiest church in Christendom? |

Has the BBC reported on this yet? I see Sky and RT has mentioned it.
they blame the metal detectors? not the two arabs that murdered the cops in the alley? Israel needs to tell Jordan to FK off home. Israel belongs to Israel. having an island in the middle of London that's owned by the soviet union would not be acceptable. |
|
By:
Still no one has answered my simple question, namely, why don't we just help Israel finish off the palestinian militants? Palestine is only 4 and a half million people. If we could do Iraq and Afghanistan which is about 9 times more, why can't we help the Israelis get rid of this problem? I know America does help with weapons but even they haven't yet given full military support to the israelis.
|

By:
I'm intrigued as to why you believe Israel would need any assistance if it decided to finish off Palestinian militants. Israel has already shown that when it comes to dealing with existentialist threats it is more than capable of dealing with the combined might of the Arab world - you must surely be aware that since the last time it happened Israel has become a nuclear power while the medievalists lined up against it have regressed further - much further in fact - to the Stone Age than they were in 1967?
Israel doesn't really need to finish off any Palestinian militants because they are no more than a minor irritant in the grand scheme of things. |

Israel is a democracy detraveller, which means the Government there answers to the people - starting wars every time it sees fit is not universally popular with an educated population, this is the same the world over.
As I said, if push were to come to shove, Israel could deal with all those backward tyrannies without batting an eyelid. Furthermore, various Israeli Governments have attempted to engage the Palestinians in peace talks, but ultimately the greater Arab population of the Levant are not interested in peace with Israel, only the detruction of Israel, and the various tyrannies ranged against Israel are not interested in solving the problems of the Palestinian people. They are more interested in prolonging the suffering of their fellow Arabs so that their condition can be used a stick with which to beat Israel. |

By:
I understand all that. What you are pointing out isn't a recent problem. israelis should have figured out by now what the Arabs want. Yet for 50 years they have been alternating in peace talks and bombings. 50 years should have been enough to find out how interested the next party is. They haven't figured that out yet, but we are supposed to figure out if it was the 2 arabs who killed the policemen who started the recent conflict, or was it the metal detectors at the mosque that started it? Surely that is irrelevant? For 50 years 2 parties are at each other and we are still wondering, was it the 2 arabs or the metal detectors?
