"Establishing an independent democratic state with complete sovereignty on all Palestinian lands, and Jerusalem is its capital city, and protecting the citizens' legal and equal rights without any racial or religious discrimination." Can you tell me what's the problem with this? Oh, I know...you prefer racial and religious discrimination against non-jews. You're not real jews, you're rotten inside. Hatred killed your soul. But I won't do the same,I was in Israel,working as a volunteer in a kibbutz during the Yom Kippur war. I know lots of jews who believe that all humans are equal.I will not hate Jews. "The Zionist Movement is racial, colonial and aggressive in ideology, goals, organisation and method". Against racism,we must fight inside our souls.

You think this message was so important that you had to send it seven times?  Let me tell you what is wrong with your message.  

1. Israel offered the Palestinians an independent state at Camp David last year, but it was rejected fully by the Palestinian Authority.  

2. Democratic?  Do you know when the last election for President was?  It was ten years ago - does that sound like a democracy to you?  There is no reason to believe they'll be like almost every single other Arab country - undemocratic.

3. Palestinian lands?  Do you know what they mean by "Palestinian lands"?  Look at this map the Palestinian State Information Service had on their website at one time (but took it off because it sends a bad message) - when the Palestinian Authority says "Palestinian lands" they mean "Israel".  It's something most people haven't caught onto.  

4. "Protecting citizen's legal and equal rights without any racial or religious discrimination"?  The Palestinians are notorious for "taking care" of people who don't agree with the "government" - anybody with a dissenting opinion is killed or tortured.  Does that sound like "legal and equal rights to you?".  Israel, somehow, treats its Arab citizens well, even though many would like to see the country destroyed.

5. Oh, and how about the "right of return"?  Basically the Palestinians are saying "We want a Palestinian state, but we also want to destroy your Jewish state by insisting that 4,000,000 Palestinians get to 'return'."  That is something that Israel cannot and will not stand for.  The Palestinians want to have their cake and eat it too. 

6. "you prefer racial and religious discrimination against non-jews." - That's funny, the last time I checked Israel had quotas for Arab students in their universities - I bet you didn't know that.  That means that Israeli kids that deserve to go to university can't go because Arabs that don't deserve to be there are taking up spots.  Besides, when you look at how Muslims treat non-Muslims the Jewish treatment of non-Jews looks angelic.    

7. "You're not real jews, you're rotten inside. Hatred killed your soul. But I won't do the same,I was in Israel,working as a volunteer in a kibbutz during the Yom Kippur war." 

What do you want, a cookie?  So, you think "real Jews" are supposed to take punishment?  What Israel is doing is called "self-defence" - it's a legal term - go check it up.

8. I know lots of jews who believe that all humans are equal.I will not hate Jews. 

Do a little survey, and you'll see why you're wrong.  Go ask Jews/Israelis what they think of Arabs and then ask Arabs what they think of Jews.  It'll be clear that Arabs hate Jews much more than Jews hate Arabs.

9. "The Zionist Movement is racial, colonial and aggressive in ideology, goals, organisation and method". Against racism,we must fight inside our souls.

So you're quoting from the Palestinian Authority's constitution?  That's a pretty reliable source, isn't it?  If you believe what they say so much, why don't you believe them (Arafat included) when they say they want to destroy Israel.  It seems like you have a disease called selective hearing - perhaps you should get checked out by a doctor.  Good luck in your rehabilitation!

"We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem....All the rich Jews who will get compensation will travel to America....We of the PLO will now concentrate all our efforts on splitting Israel psychologically into two camps. Within five years we will have six to seven million Arabs living in the West Bank and in Jerusalem....You understand that we plan to eliminate the State of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian State....I have no use for Jews; they are and remain Jews."
Yasser Arafat - Palestinian 'President', Jan. 30, 1996, Private speech to Arab leaders - "The Impending Total Collapse of Israel", Stockholm, Sweden
