As far as the similarity with the plight of the Native Americans, the
Israeli occupation is not as far along as it was with America and the
Palistinians still outnumber the Israelis by the millions. So, there is
plausibility to a civilian withdrawal, but let's begin with a military
withdrawal. Of course, greed prevails and the Zionists want to clutch
someone else's dirt and say "mine."

  Just for my own clarity, Dan, what would you say to the Jews born in
Israel in the last fifty years?  While their births don't "entitle" the Jews
as a people to usurp land from anyone, I don't understand why the
native-born Israelis wouldn't have as much claim to the nation as Arabs born
there.

Thank you for your input, Lindsay, and for presenting the "facts on the ground" point of view about the Israeli occupation.
